Villa Filosifa
sleeps up to: 8
As you enter into the main floor of Villa Filosifa, it opens into a large living room with corner fireplace and an open plan kitchen. This spacious house combines a modern and a country island style and is newly completed. In addition to the sitting room and kitchen, the ground floor also comprises a bedroom with a single bed and a w/c shower room.
Upstairs there are three more bedrooms, two with double bed and 1 with two single beds. One of the double rooms i s an example of the original country-style bedrooms found in the olden days with an enormous bed running wall to wall.
This type of bed was used during the days when families spent days in the countryside and was intended to provide sleeping space for all the family together during olive or fruit picking season. Today this type of bed works well for both adults and couples, but also makes a fun sleeping space for 3-4 children.
This bedroom has a private balcony with views to the olive groves and a peek sea view. The double bed in the second bedroom is slightly narrower than a normal double, but still adequate for couples.The 3 rd bedroom is furnished with two twin beds and shares a spacious balcony with the double bedded room and has lovely views over the valleyand the sea in the distance.All of the upstairs bedrooms have lovely open wood beamed ceilings that add a nice country touch. The balconies are all furnished al fresco dining with small table and chairs to enjoy a private morning coffee or nightcap before retiring whilst enjoying the fabulous views and surrounding nature.
EXTERIOR: The spacious gardens and pool area includes a traditional built-in BBQ with a thatched umbrella which adds a touch of character. The terrace is equipped with a large dining table and chairs to enjoy al fresco meals.This very private and peaceful space is perfect for those wanting a holiday undisturbed.
Villa Filosifa has the advantage of being in a quiet and peaceful setting, but also is just a short walk or drive to the lovely beaches Velanio. In the opposite direction, Skopelos town is just a few kilometers for those who like a walk in the countryside or it can be reached within a few minutes by car.
In the area, there is a mini market for your essentials and several restaurants nearby. There are lots of walking trails in the area with acres of olive trees in the valley and lovely sea views along the south coast of the island.
