“The weather was absolutely scorching so the pool got full usage from early morning to almost midnight! Sitting out late at night under the scented jasmine, sipping wine…"
This quaint one bedroomed cottage with a full sized private pool just for your use is tucked away in its own quiet garden in Nikokleia village just outside Paphos. The house is simply furnished and has everything needed for cooking light meals, and air conditioning in lounge and bedroom is available if required. UK and world film streaming via Expat TV media box.
In case it is full for your dates, we offer 2 person discounts on all villas. Just ask.
The outside space is a well-tended large garden with mature and colourful shrubs and a lemon tree. The owners will offer you free range eggs from their chickens and vegetables from their garden.
The peaceful garden has lighting for night-time so you can sit outside and enjoy the stars, have a swim and if you are lucky, hear the unique sound of a Scops owl.
Undeveloped beaches are only 7 minutes’ drive, and the local bar/restaurant Vasilias Nikoklis Inn (which serves food when they are not busy with weddings), is 20 minutes’ walk.
The well-stocked minimarket the Fruitaria is en route on the B6 and also sells hot food, coffee, cakes and juices. Paphos Town is 12 minutes’ drive.
Nikokleia village is a bird sanctuary and protected area. If you are a bird spotter, then you will like to know that the garden overlooks the River Diarizos valley and you have the Aspro Dam a 5-minute drive away. Also Mandria beach (15 minutes), Paphos Headland (25 minutes) and the Fassouri reed beds (30 minutes). Examples of birds seen and heard near the Cottage include Black Francolin, Nightjar, Hoopoe, Collared Flycatcher, Bee eaters and Scops Owl.
The valley has beautiful views and is ideal for walking, and both the Secret Valley and Aphrodite Hills golf courses are nearby.
Home cooked food for your arrival is available from Zoe the owner. Chicken and salad, 12 Euro pp.
Access to the villa is via the owner’s pretty gardens, and guests are welcome to wander around. Although the owners live next door, they will respect your privacy completely, but are there if needed.
