Thalames Villa | A medieval tower house with huge garden and amazing sea views.

4 Bedroom Villa in Thalames, Lefktro

A medieval tower house just minutes from amazing beaches. Meticulously restored with modern comforts and an eye for textures, this 3 bedroom house provides an ideal base for exploring the nearby beaches, monuments and hiking areas of southern Greece, or simply sipping ouzo and soaking up history and sunshine in the 1200 square meter garden.
This is the beautifully restored tower house of the Manoleas family, with original structures dating from the 1600s. It has been fully modernized while retaining its original character, and decorated with local antiques. Located on the outskirts of Thalames, once the capital of the region, now a protected monument of winding streets and crumbling Byzantine churches. The house is set in beautifully landscaped gardens with ancient olive trees. The village sits at 450 meters altitude on the slopes of the Taygetus Mountains, 10 minutes from beautiful beaches
This is a property for travelers who want more than a usual resort vacation. Beaches there are plenty, some sand and some rocky, with crystal clear water for snorkeling, and the Taygetus mountains behind them offer amazing hiking country. What is unique however is the opportunity to live in a restored medieval tower house in a working Greek village. The olive mill is just down the road, local honey and mountain herbs are sold in the village square, and vans selling fresh fruit and vegetables come by daily. The village has cornerstones with ancient Roman and Greek inscriptions, Byzantine churches are hidden around many corners, and ancient Sparta is just 30 km away, on the other side of the Taygetus.
The villa comfortably hosts 6-8 guests in three full bedrooms, three full bathrooms and an additional sofa-bed in the living room

Summary: Our group had a wonderful time at this unique and authentic home. The outdoor spaces are varied and private - we ate several dinners outside overlooking the ocean with ever changing light and weather. The kitchen is simple and fine for making basic meals. We did carry in lots of drinking water - at least a litre a day for each of us. The local taverna, run by friendly and terrific folks, is a great option if you don't want to cook. One suggestion is to bring a head lamp for the walk back to the house after dark. We hiked up to a mountain chapel and an amazing walnut grove above the village one day, and it was a highlight of our trip. Would love to return and experience more of this beautiful place.
