Villa Lampon is one of three newly built villas nestled in an enclosed olive grove in the village of Agia Varvara, Plomari. The villa is located just 250 metres from the sea and only a 5 minute drive from the ever popular, award winning, organised beach of Agios Isidoros. Villa Lampon and its sister villas have been built with sophisticated yet unpretentious design to settle into a natural, tranquil environment. The designers vision was to combine contemporary, modern facilities with traditional Greek values to exude homely warmth, creating villas that completely intertwined with the gorgeous location. Villa Lampon offers two gorgeous, minimalist bedrooms, two bathrooms and a delightful, contemporary living space. It is ideal for two couples or a small family.

Lesvos is the third largest Greek island and boasts sensational scenery, award-winning beaches, ancient, traditional, picturesque villages, a huge array of wildflowers and birdlife, lush pine forests, medieval castles, olive groves, scenic, colourful harbours, plenty of museums, a gourmet dining experience and some of the warmest, friendliest people in all of Greece. With stunning natural attractions including a petrified forest and hot springs, its wonderful landscapes are waiting to be explored on donkey or horseback, by foot, jeep or cycling. The island hosts numerous festivals which can be enjoyed along with its gorgeous beaches, fascinating archaeology, stunning scenery and a laid-back lifestyle.

The island is famous for its ouzo, its monasteries, its castles and its mountains. Plomari, very close to the villa, is an extremely pretty, colourful town where you can enjoy the authentic Greek countryside life. It is the ouzo capital of Greece as well as enjoying a pretty harbour, stunning beaches, delicious cuisine and a very friendly atmosphere. The pebbly Agios Isidoros Beach is known for its crystal clear waters and beautiful environment. It is one of the longest beaches in Lesvos, perfect for snorkeling. How wonderful that it is only five minutes away!

Villa Lampon boasts exquisite contemporary furnishings and cool decor with minimalist styling. The natural colour hues enjoy dazzling bright yellow colour pops. The villa’s kitchen offers contemporary cabinetry in anthracite grey with wooden worktops and excellent appliances. The dining table blends perfectly. Guests enjoy a welcome hamper on arrival. The master bedroom is also on the ground floor with an Emperor size bed, a stylish ensuite shower room and doors opening to the terrace and pool.

On the terrace you will find luxury loungers and some lounge chairs under a modern sail canopy that offers some shade. The private 25 sqm pool is a real blessing where you can cool off and enjoy the fabulous views. A smart black staircase leads you upstairs to a mezzanine style bedroom with a luxurious superking bed and ensuite shower room. The chic furnishings will impress. There are not the standard wardrobes here. You will discover hanging rails and shelves, all so trendy. Like the downstairs bathroom, the ensuite enjoys the very best of fittings and luxurious toiletries.

Location

Villa Lampon is located in the middle of a huge olive grove along with its two sister villas in the tranquil settlement of Agia Varvara in Plomari. The villa is just 250 metres from the sea and only a 5 minute drive from Agios Isidoros Beach. Its elevated position offers delightful views across the olive grove towards the sea. The villa is located close to the picturesque town of Plomari, the ouzo capital of not just Lesvos but the whole of Greece.

The beautiful island of Lesvos is awash with gorgeous scenery, medieval castles, ancient monuments, charming villages and plenty of museums. The most famous museum is The World of Ouzo Museum which is less than a mile from the villa. It is situated in Isidoros Arvanitis in a fabulous olive grove, just a few minutes from Plomari. The distillery has been going for more than 120 years and exports its delicious ouzo to more than 30 countries around the world. Visitors can taste and buy the ouzo. Other fascinating museums include the Archaeological Museum of Mytilene, the Iakovidis Digital Museum and The Museum of the Petrified Forest which was founded in 1994 to research, promote, display, preserve and protect the unique forest. The Petrified Forest, 12 km from Sigri, is a rare natural site which was officially declared a natural monument in 1985. It was petrified because of the intense volcanic activity of the area. The Vranas Olive Press Museum in Kaloni is housed in a beautiful industrial building built by Nikolaos Vranas, the grandfather of the poet Odysseas Elytis.

Lesvos’ hot springs, health inducing spas are dotted around the island. Many have been used for thousands of years for rheumatism, arthritis, gynaecological and dermatological ailments as well as kidney and gallstones, neurological ailments, bronchitis and sciatica. The main locations are Efthalia, Thermes and Gera. The island’s landscape is rugged with mountains and lush forests. If you visit the island in the spring, you will be rewarded with one of the most amazing displays of wildflowers and wild birds you will ever see. Lesvos is a major stop in the migration routes of European birds coming from Africa. Although there are many birdwatching spots around the island, the most famous is the salt lakes close to Kalloni, in the centre of the island. The island is renowned for its high-quality olive oil as well as its ouzo. Lesvos is sprinkled with many picturesque villages. The village of Molyvos is a must visit for its spectacular views of the Aegean Sea. An imposing medieval castle sits above the village where it used to protect the village from invasions. You can take some lovely boat excursions from Molyvos. The ancient walls of Molyvos were once beseiged by Archilles himself. Other pretty villages include Mytilene, Agiossos and Skala Sikamias. The seaside town of Sigri is very popular, a remote outpost of Greek island tourism. Other attractions include the Castle of Mytilene, the Monastery of Saint Raphael, the Ipsilou Monastery, The Ancient Theatre of Lesvos and the Roman Aqueduct which dates from the 3rd century AD. The Castle of Mytilene was originally built in medieval times but has undergone many transformations by the Genovese and the Turks.

The 23 beaches of Lesvos are usually small pebbled bays, some totally secluded even in high season. Villa Ladon is close to the delightful Ammoudeli Beach and Agios Isidoros Beach, less than 10 miles from the fun Vatera Beach, just over 3 miles from Melinda Beach and roughly 7 miles from Tarti Beach. The stunning Vatera Beach is as long as many of the Cyclades islands themselves. Vatera, Petra and Molyvos beaches offer excellent watersports and are organised with plenty of sun loungers and umbrellas. It is good to hire a car or go on a boat trip to discover some of the island’s excellent beaches.

Getting to and around

The volcanic island of Lesvos (often spelled as Lesbos) offers visitors pretty villages, impressive nature, fascinating geology and gorgeous beaches as well as a fascinating history and rich island culture.

Seasonally, international flights arrive at the island’s airport around 7km south of the island’s capital city, Mytilene, or sail to Lesvos from various Greek ports including Piraeus, Athens.

Fall in love with the island beaches from the long shores of Vatera Beach with watersports, sun loungers and umbrellas to more remote spots accessible only by boat. Keen snorkellers will love the clear waters of Tsonia Beach or you may prefer to sip cocktails overlooking Paralia Tarti’s crystal-clear sea. If you can find the time, soak up the summer ambience of the lively beach at Molyvos with idyllic sunsets over the Aegean.

The island’s nature is inspiring with ample bird-watching opportunities, especially around the salt pans of Kalloni where migratory birds stop en route from Africa to Europe. In the springtime, look out for rare sightings of birds and beautiful wild flowers as you follow a network of hiking trails across the mountains and wild forests. Cycling is another wonderful way to experience the natural beauty and authentic Greek charm of Lesvos.

With archaeological sites and historic castles, there are many sites where you can learn all about the island’s diverse and often turbulent history. Admire the Roman aqueduct in Moria, the Byzantine castle in Molyvos and the impressive fort in in Mytilene. Visitors will also appreciate the island’s hot springs and spas, many which have been used for centuries, and Lesvos’ rich heritage in olive oil and ouzo production – a visit to The World of Ouzo Museum and distillery is an interesting detour.

Another great highlight of the island is The Petrified Forest, dating back 20 million years -the fossilised tree stumps underwent the process of petrification during the active volcanic period. Learn more about this unique natural site, at the forest’s Natural History museum around 11km from the remote fishing harbour of Sigri.
