Tenth Muse

Tenth Muse: Thessaly

A view like this doesn't come along very often. As you gaze out across the shimmering Aegean Sea and the charming village of Glossa, you'll be spoiled with unbeatable panoramas. Oodles of balconies and terraces allow you to sit back and take it all in. We can already picture ourselves basking in the scenery – Grecian breakfasts around the outdoor table as the boats float by, afternoon swims in the pool whilst watching the waves, alfresco dinners in the salty breeze, followed by cocktails as the sun goes down over the water. Dreamy, isn't it?

The magic continues inside, where you'll find an inviting living space and cosy bedrooms. Make yourself right at home – sprawl out for an afternoon snooze on the squishy orange sofa, rustle up lunch in the small but well-stocked kitchen and just chill out in style.

If you can pull yourself away from the views, Glossa is well worth exploring, and most of the coffee shops, tavernas and bakeries are within walking distance. Loutraki Beach is around 2.5 kilometres away, while Agios Ioannis Beach on the east side of the island – one of the filming locations for Mamma Mia – is within driving distance, too.
