Villa Philyra

Situated on the slopes of Mount Pelion in the stunning village of Agios Georgios Nileias is Villa Philyra. This 19th-century accommodation offers guests cosy and stylish surroundings, incredible panoramic views, and traditional rustic Greek charm punctuated with modern touches. Set over two storeys and featuring private yard and hot tub, Villa Philyra can accommodate up to 7 guests and is resplendent with original features such as exposed beams and brickwork, all uniquely reflecting Pelion’s architectural style.

The ground floor of this quaint rustic space features an open plan layout, consisting of living, dining and kitchen areas. The whole floor boasts stone flooring and wooden panelled ceilings, as well as columns and shelves in rich wood and slate, providing a wonderfully authentic rural feel. The living area features a fireplace, ideal for those visiting during the colder months, as well as a flat-screen TV and DVD player for your entertainment. The decor in here is kept fresh and natural, allowing the white stone walls and natural flooring to speak for themselves. Rugs and soft furnishings in shades of toffee, cream and chocolate blend beautifully with the dark woods and contemporary styled lamps and coffee tables, and the beautiful wooden spiral staircase makes a stunning central feature.

The dining and kitchen area follow suit with a colour palette of neutral shades and feature plenty of beautiful solid woods and natural materials. The well-equipped kitchen has an electric oven and hob, fridge freezer, dishwasher, Nespresso coffee maker, and sandwich toaster, as well as offering plenty of storage and food preparation areas. The ground floor of Villa Philyra also houses the main bathroom consisting of bath with shower attachment, basin, toilet and bidet. Spacious and light, the bathroom suite is fresh and white and complemented by shiny tiles in a light mocha. Guests will also find the washing machine in this room, as well as tiled shelves holding baskets of towels and complimentary toiletries for your convenience.

There is direct access from the ground floor to the lowest level of the private yard and the hot tub, here you’ll find a cobbled area featuring dining table and chairs, as well as bbq and grill, all shaded by a large tree. There’s also a decking area around the hot tub, complete with sun loungers, providing the perfect place to sit and relax while enjoying the most breathtaking views of the Pagasitikos Gulf.

Heading back inside and up that gorgeous spiral staircase to the first floor, guests will discover four beautiful bedrooms, as well as a small bathroom featuring a walk-in shower. The two double rooms are lightly decorated in shades of white and cream with wooden floors and furniture. Linens are crisp and white with accents of gingham toffee and mocha, providing a serene and relaxing environment. The single room consists of a sturdy white wooden bed, large enough for an adult to sleep comfortably, and is decorated in the same light shades with wooden flooring and white rugs. The fourth room consists of sturdy bunk beds in a festive shade of red, colourful rugs and cushions, making it the ideal space for young children. From this floor, there is access to the top level of the yard, where guests will find a table and seating area, perfect for a morning coffee or a light breakfast accompanied by those stunning views.
