Mainland Mist

Mainland Mist: Thessaly

Located in the Greek Pelion region, this cliffside villa is perfectly set up for groups of friends and families looking to get away from it all. You're surrounded by the dramatic landscape of the mountain, so there'll be nothing to disturb you here but the gentle breeze rustling through the old fir trees and lush vegetation, ensuring a relaxing, stress-free stay.

At this particular villa, you're well catered for when it comes to inviting alfresco areas – including several poolside sun loungers, a hammock and a summer kitchen, as well as three veranda terraces with a dining table overlooking the beautiful sea views in the distance. When dinnertime beckons, enjoy one last dip in your private pool before grilling locally sourced produce on the barbecue and feasting together under the shaded pergola.

On the ground floor, you'll immediately notice the high-end touch that's been given to the traditional space – from the modern fireplace to the wood-framed sofa, basket chairs and stylish decor. It's the ideal spot to flop down with a good book or a cup of Greek coffee. Upstairs, there are three comfortable bedrooms with original wood-beamed ceilings and even space for working from home. Combining natural materials with contemporary interiors, we think it's a lovely villa to call home for a while.

Head out to explore and in addition to the small towns nearby, the nearest sandy beach of Paralia Platanidia, boasting crystal-clear waters and picturesque shores, is just twenty-five minutes away by car.
