Lovely Flat in Country House in Spilia
The house that we give is the first floor of a double floor house and is located in a beautiful village called Spilia. Spilia is in Messinia a place with lots of tourist destinations (Ancient Olympia, Voidokoilia, Nestor's palace, Methoni castle, Koroni Castle).
Spilia, is a beautiful small village surrounded by olive trees. It has a lovely natural scenery that combines both the beauty of the mountain and also is located 2 km from the closest beach. The nearest town Kyparissia is 4km away and the capital of our area Kalamata is 60km away.
The last 3 years we have opened a slam restaurant in a nearby village we are unable to do parallel exchange during June, July and August. Those months we can host only because the house is empty. We do live in the bottom floor.
Our preferred date of parallel exchange is between February until May with exception of Orthodox Easter days and September until December after communication and agreement. Duration two to three weeks.
We also would like to note that our winter is not that cold. Instead you will find the weather rather sunny and the climate warm. Many of us do swim in the sea during this time.

DE51293Sotiria and Tasia are kind, friendly and nice. We felt immediately at ease with them. We had no problems communicating, despite their poor knowledge of English. We communicated with the translator from Italian to Greek and there were no problems. The house we exchanged with is a flat on the first floor of the building in which the family lives. It is quite spacious and comfortable.
The listing is correctly represented on intervac, however it is difficult to use the navigator because of the addresses written in Greek.
