The main sitting area is located on the same level, with lots of natural light coming in. You will find lot of comfort, tranquility and space to relax in front of the main fireplace, reading a good book or enjoying a movie in the screen.
All internal areas are characterized by the warmth of combining wood and stone, the essence of the local architecture. The archontiko is beautifully decorated with traditional furniture and objects, offering to its guests an experience of drifting into the old days.
