The Blue Cottage - totally private, with pool, in the countryside

For relaxing holidays, you can't beat this detached cottage with its pool in a large enclosed garden; set amongst the verdant hills of the island, it has been lovingly restored to provide all modern facilities, yet preserved many of the features of an old traditional property. A big joy of this property is the large terraced areas surrounded by a fenced garden with trees and flowers, that you can enjoy at different times of the day. The roomy terrace is a lovely sheltered spot with shade provided by trees or covered patios, and color provided by potted flowers. There is plenty of room to sunbathe, to enjoy the views and the stunning sunset, or to dine outside; there is also a stone-built barbeque perfect for outdoor cooking. Whether you choose to take your breakfast and meal, or sunbathe by he pool, enjoying the verdant hills and lush countryside, garden furniture and sun beds are at your disposal. There is a small front terrace, off the living room with views to the sea.

Fantastic Villa and Island
Such a lovely place to stay. Dimitris was great and was on hand should we need him. His parents cleaned the Villa half way through our stay. The Villa was very clean and the pool was lovely. As other reviews say you would definitely need a car to stay at this property but Dimitris arranged all of this for us. There was fresh fruit including lemons and cherries in the garden. The wildlife was fantastic. The Villa was very quiet with not many cars passing. We would recommend going to Agnanti in Glossa for dinner one night as it had spectacular views and food was amazing. Also hiring a boat from wind speed boat rental. Me and my partner got engaged when we were on the island so it will always hold a special place in our hearts. Thank you Dimitris for the wonderful Villa and your assistance.

Simply fabulous!
We have just had the most wonderful 2 weeks in the Blue Cottage. It is perfect for a family with older children who can sleep independently as the two twin rooms are below the main house by external stairs. The cottage is on a very quiet road with lots of outdoor space. The only noises are from the cicadas. Fruit can be picked from the trees or vine. The outdoor kitchen is perfect for al fresco living. We had lots of fun in the pool. Star gazing at night with lots of meteors whilst we were there. Exploring the island requires a car which was sorted out by Dimitris. Lots of great beaches, and restaurants to while away the hours! This was an amazing holiday made all the more special by our stay in Blue Cottage. We are definitely planning to return.

Heaven on Earth
This must be one of the most lovingly kept villas on all of Skopelos. Inside is basic but fulfilled all our needs (and the hard mattresses other guests complain about must have been changed - if anything I thought they could have been harder) and outside, where after all most guests probably spend most of their time, is a dream - Dozens of flowerpots with thriving flowers and herbs, Enough pretty places to sit that you can follow the sun or shade all day and everything kept immaculate by Dimitris' parents, who could not, with Dimitris, be better hosts. Location is perfect for reaching all towns and beaches and hiking destinations, and on a side road that, at least in October, no more than 10 cars pass a day, if that. I cannot recommend this place highly enough - we certainly hope to visit again!

This is one of the best places we ever have stayed. The house is beautiful, charming, and comfortable. It is not over-modernised, and still has real Greek charm and feel. We really loved this, particularly the out-door kitchen. The setting is peaceful and remote, with fine views of the mountains. Skopelos seems to have got busier over the last few years, but even in August we found real tranquility here. Although you need to drive to reach beaches and restaurants, the house is very central; everywhere is within fairly easy reach. We felt very relaxed and at home here immediately, and would love to return. Thank you Dimitris and your lovely parents for sharing this paradise.

Great Getaway
Cottage is as described online. It is a remote location so transportation is a must. We rented 4 wheelers and had a blast. About 8km from Skopelos town, its an easy drive in for dinner or shopping. The downstairs apartment has two BRs , a bath and kitchenette Upstairs is a BR, bath, full kitchen and living room. We lived primarily outside since was so well appointed Dimitris and his parents are wonderful hosts and took care of a small problem we had very quickly. Highly recommended.

Lovely and so peaceful
Great location for exploring the beautiful Island. Cottage was very clean and it was a lovely surprise to receive home cooked food and some home made wine from Dimitris's mother. The only downside was the double bed was really uncomfortable. Was a truly lovely holiday, just wish it was longer.

Peaceful and relaxing.
A real escape from everything if required. It has all one needs to remain in Blue Cottage for days without venturing out if you wish. Terraces, barbeque and pool made it self sufficient for us, venturing to supermarket every few days. Best beach in Limnonari, 15 minutes away where Apenema restaurant offers great food and service with a smile. The only comment we would make is the mattress in main bedroom we found to be a little hard. Otherwise the owners were kind and considerate, visiting every 3 days to clean and change linens. A wonderful cottage which holds sweet memeories.

Wunderschöne Oase inmitten wilder Natur.
Inmitten der wunserschönen Insel Skopelos, ist das Cottage der perfekte Ausgangspunkt für jeden Ausflug: Ob Wanderung, kleine, charmante Dörfchen, Strände oder natürlich die imposante Sunset Tour mit dem Kajak am Milia Beach, all das ist von hier aus sehr gut mit dem Auto zu erreichen. Zum Bäcker und zum Supermarkt zu fahren ist zwar auch jedes Mal ein kleiner "Ausflug", aber so einsam zu wohnen nehmen wir hier gerne in Kauf, denn das Haus selber ist ein Idyll – die Bilder zeigen alles so wie es ist, es ist sehr liebevoll eingerichtet und sauber. Herzlichen Dank nochmal an die immer sehr hilfsbereiten Vermieter.

Séjour agréable dans un endroit isolé
Nous avons passé 15 jours dans cette location ,qui est isolée dans les montagnes au milieu de l ile ,l endroit est très joli et très propre , une voiture est indispensable .Il faut cependant savoir que la piscine n est pas chauffée, qu il n y a pas de Wifi et que les téléphones ne fonctionnent pas ,pas de réseau.
