Charming Wooden Eco-House in unspoiled nature surrounding Sougia

Charming wooden Eco-house near Sougia (3 km). Built in the late summer of 2017. Between the villages Sougia and Moni on the southwest coast of Crete, situated in an olive grove on a hill, surrounded by mountains, stands this wonderful wooden Eco-house in unspoiled nature, with a distant sea view. Offering peacefulness and silence, yet very near to the crystal clear waters of the Libyan Gulf and all the amenities offered in Sougia village. There you will find a long pebbly beach, one of the most beautiful beaches of Greece and plenty of restaurants, bars and shops. It is also a perfect starting point for mountain hiking as it is connected to the E-4 hiking route.
As the house is surrounded by several acres of olive trees, in a very quiet environment, completely private, it is a perfect spot for people looking for true relaxation, silence and privacy. The house is completely made of wood and electricity is provided solely through solar energy. The house is approx 53 sq m with an extra storage room. It comprises a large living room with open kitchen. There are two bedrooms. In one bedroom you find a double bed (140 x 200 cm). In the second bedroom there is a single bed which can very easily be converted into a double bed (160 x 200 cm). All beds come with double orthopaedic mattresses and several pillows to choose among. Behind the house there is a garage on top of which the solar panels and the hot water system are mounted. As we named our house Eco-house, we try to keep it as "green" as possible. Except the solar energy we also provide our guests with fresh well water so they don't need to buy and use plastic bottles which are not being recycled yet in Greece. The house is painted with eco-paint, both in -and outdoors. We do not use pesticides in our olive grove either. Please, be aware, there is no WIFI connection available and there is no air-conditioning. All rooms are provided with fans though.

Wonderful
A unique place to stay, comfortable and very well-equipped, perched in a perfect position among olive trees in the hills to glimpse the sea down at Sougia. The best of both worlds, so quiet at the house yet only 5 minutes in the car to swim in the sea and enjoy something to eat in laid-back Sougia. Corinne is a fabulous host who has thought of everything for a comfortable stay.

A beautifull oasis in the olivegroves, with stunning views.
I loved my stay in this very welcoming place, everything shows a loving and caring hand. The kitchen is nice and well equiped, and the double mattrasses on the beds are very comfotable. Many places to sit and relax in- or outside, in the sun or in the shadow of an olive tree. I liked the views of the mountains so much and the millions of stars at night, the feeling of being part of nature. I made some great walks and Sougia with the crystal clear sea and good restaurants is only a 5 min. drive away. Corinne Falagaris is a very nice and helpful person and my stay was a fantastic holiday.

A Dream
This charming place is a little up in the mountains.By car five minutes away from Sougia bay. , Surrounded by mountains you can catch yet a glimpse of the sea.Nature speaks to you up there.Wonderful olive trees all around , fresh water from a source that the owners supply you with help you save buying plastic bottles.A perfect spot for a personal retreat.The house itself smells of wood and the light but yet cosy atmosphere makes you just happy. Everything of furniture to the dishes has been lovingly chosen by the owners who are very friendly. All you need ist there. And bubbles, a tame sheep, a funny lovable creature keeps you company. I would visit any time again.

Villa Wittgenstein - Ruhe und Ganzheit
Unvergesslich werden diese drei Wochen sein, gerne wären wir noch geblieben. Corinne (Buchautorin) und Giorgos sind ganz wunderbare, warmherzige, erfahrene Gastgeber, die uns viele wertvolle Informationen zu Land, Quellen und Leute geben konnten. An alles war gedacht, obwohl wir die ersten Gäste in diesem bezaubernden Holzhaus waren. Feine, geschmackvoll und liebevoll ausgesuchte Details taten unserem Sinn für schlichte Estetik gut. Das Haus auf großzügige Grundstück, bestückt mit vielen Olivenbäumen, liegt auf einem Hügel, umsäumt von hohen Bergen. Von der schattigen Terasse aus öffnet sich der Blick, Sougia und das immer wieder andersblaue Meer erahnend. Tief beeindruckend ist der nächtliche, so klare, so weite Sternenhimmel. Inmitten von Natur, Ruhe und Kontemplation ist es möglich, schnell in das kleine, lebendige Sougia zu gelangen und wieder zurück. So gerne nächstes Jahr wieder!!!!!! Petra und Christoph

Highlight im Olivenhain
Kurz gesagt: Eines der schönsten Ferienhäuser, die wir je hatten. In Mitten eines Olivenhains in absoluter Ruhe gelegen, merkt man sofort, daß das Haus mit viel Geschmack und Liebe eingerichtet wurde, es fehlt wirklich an nichts. Zum sehr herzlichen Willkommen durch die Vermieterin Corinne gab es noch lokalen Wein, Oliven und Raki. Nach einer sehr erholsamen Woche ist die Wiederholungsgefahr recht hoch... Und da sind wir offensichtlich nicht die Ersten :-) Absolut empfehlenswert!

Sehr freundlicher Empfang. Man merkte sofort, dass man in jeder Hinsicht volle Unterstützung hatte.
Ein sehr angenehmes Holzhaus an dem nichts fehlte. Man fühlte sich sofort wohl. Das Haus liegt mitten in der Natur. Man hat keine unmittelbaren Nachbarn. Dafür zwei nette Schafe. Idealer Ausgangspunkt für Wanderungen, aber auch der Weg zum Meer ist auch nicht weit .Kulinarische Köstlichkeiten sind auch nicht weit entfernt. Das Vermieterpaar ist sehr gastfreundlich und einfach spitze.

Einsam und spitze = einsame Spitze
Top Haus mit geschmackvollem, vollständigem und stimmigem Inneren. Wohin der Blick auch schweift: alles schön und zweckmäßig! Die Krönung erfährt der Gast durch die unfassbar herzliche Gastfreundschaft von Corinne Falagaris.

Perfect Cretan experience
Corinne is the sweetest host and the house is perfectly located to access Sougia within minutes but yet feel alone in the universe, surrounded by Olive trees. Bubbles and Baba Luca, the 2 domesticated sheeps, are the best entertainment for kids.

Nice time
The dream exists : it's in Sougia. There, the road stops at the end of south Creta. The paradise exists too : it's in the Eco-house. It's time to leave and i can't get my eyes off the mountains around, and my mind off the wonderful time we had here, simple life without stress. Corinne is so warm and friendly...we'll be back someday. Just the heat was unbearable inside the house during 2 or 3 nights, and we had to sleep outside. But staring at the stars before falling asleep is not horrible, isn't it .....? Thank you to enable us to share your woodhouse. Kiss to Bubble !
