One of the prime features of this property is its private access to the sea. A steep flight of steps lead from the edge of the garden down to the seashore where there is a rocky cove as good as private to this property from which guests can swim.

There is also a small jetty located just 300m further down the coast from the property (a few minutes by car since there is no pathway along the coast at this point).

Kefalonia airport is about a 10 min drive away. Argostoli which is the main town of the island is just 10 mins drive away too.
