An introduction to Cyprus self catering accommodation in Kalavassos - a fantastic family holiday desintation

A traditional village house, which has been converted into four spacious apartments under the village 'Agrotourism' scheme sponsored by the Cyprus Tourist Organization and is a member of the Cyprus Agrotourism Company. Kalavassos is a typical Cypriot village with a close-knit community friendly, quiet and caring to its visitors. It is in an excellent location 5 minutes drive from 'Governors Beach', 5 minutes from Zigy fishing village with very nice fish restaurants.

Location
20 minutes from Limassol, 35 minutes from Nicosia, 30 minutes from Larnaca and Larnaca Airport and about an hour from Paphos. So it is very well situated and offers easy access to all travellers wishing to visit other parts of Cyprus.

The house is very near the village square and all amenities. It has its own secluded courtyard offering peace and privacy to its occupants - each apartment has it own patio. It consist of four large self contained apartments.

Three being of one bedroom (2 beds) and the other being two bedrooms (4 beds). Each apartment has the capacity to sleep 2 extra, has a lounge/kitchen with TV and is equipped with both air conditioning and central heating. So is ideal for summer or winter holidays.

You might also enjoy walking in our orange grove which is close at hand and has lots of other fruit available to any guests that may like to pick their own!

If you like you can join us in picking our olives in the winter period and visit the olive mill where they are processed for olive oil. If you are interested in cheese making we will take you see how traditional haloumi cheese is made in a nearby farm.

Family Friendly:
Our house is ideal for anyone who likes to relax away from the hustle and bustle. The charm of the house is the fact that it is centered around a secluded courtyard which brings a feeling of peace and security. There is a feeling of being cocooned from the rest of the world while being close enough to it, just walking out of the door will get you into the village environment immediately and the rest of the island is very easy to get to as we are very central. The closest town is Limassol just 20 minutes away The house is particularly suitable for couples who want to relax or families who want to be on their own. We often let the house as a villa for family get together's. Families can let their children wander round the village and we can take them to our orchard to pick fruit etc. The sea is just a 5 minutes drive away so you can take the kids to the beach whenever you feel like it then come back home and relax.

Baby Friendly:
We provide cots free of charge. If a child is too old for a cot then we charge £6 per day for the extra bed. Our house is ideal for young children. We have the secluded courtyard so once the front door is closed they are safely enclosed.

Walking accommodation
There are about 48 paths or trails in Cyprus, organised by the forestry department and documented by the Cyprus Tourist organization. A recent addition is the European Long Distance path E4 which starts in Spain, France, Switzerland, Germany, Austria, Hungary, Bulgaria, mainland Greece, Crete then finishing off in Cyprus. The Cyprus section of the E4 path starts at Paphos airport and ends at Larnaca airport. The Nature trails have been carefully designed to cover areas of rich natural vegetation and cultural interest.

Walking in Cyprus is a joy, especially in the spring and late autumn when it’s not very hot and the natural flora and fauna are in full bloom There are many endemic flowers to be found on the island, one of these is the Cyclamen cyprium which has now been designated the National Flower of Cyprus. Our accommodation is a great base for exploring as all trails are within short driving distance, the farthest being about an hours drive, so you can appreciate many of them while staying in the nice relaxing environment of our house and within close proximity of our orchard which is just a few minutes stroll from the house.
