Lefkada (Lefkas), fourth of the seven Ionian Islands, is located off the west coast of mainland Greece, south of Corfu and north of Kefalonia. It boasts the most wonderful beaches and vivid blue sea with the most beautiful traditional villages in a verdant nature, offering unique contrasting landscapes.
35 kilometres long by 15 kilometres wide and joined to mainland Greece by means of a causeway and a free movable swing bridge, it has the important advantage of being permanently accessible.
melivaro is a large house of traditional architecture and construction, located in the mountain above the village of Tsoukalades on the west coast of the island. It is 700m from the village for essential groceries (very well appointed minimarket) and taverns, less than 5 minutes drive from the beautiful Pefkoulia beach, and 10 minutes from the fishing village of Aghios Nikitas and from the living Lefkada town.
Sleeping eight (up to 10), it has two double bedrooms and two single (becoming double) bedrooms, its own private swimming pool, a pool house, a pergola and a barbecue area with a wood oven. Beautiful garden, terraces and a small organic vegetables garden surround the house. Its location offers the most beautiful Lefkadian sunsets, and gorgeous views from every part of the house that overlooks rural hills to the sea beyond, to Ionian sea, Paxos and Corfu, and Amvrachikos gulf.
Even though this house is new, it has a warmth and simple charm, character and soul. As soon as you enter the front door you feel as relaxed as in a family home.
A green option
melivaro is also an interesting ecological option : it has no connection to the main electricity supply and produces its own power through a solar-powered system. The design of the installation supports the normal use of all the household equipment and the swimming pool, and is backed-up, if necessary, by a silent power generator. It is interesting to note here that power cuts are not rare during the summer period, and that therefore, beyond the environmental interest, the villa is protected from their inconvenience!
Environmental awareness and the understanding of renewable energy are paramount to help prevent future climate change. When looking to holiday abroad, choosing an eco-friendly residence can be an important decision to make.
With this in mind, melivaro is the perfect choice for any modern family! |
