Carob Cottage

Set a short distance from Plaka village, this original farmers cottage has been restored to a very high standard with traditional values in mind.

Using local stone and Cretan architecture this stand alone property offers guests free wifi, air conditioning, a fully equipped kitchen, shower room, lounge and dining areas and mezzanine bedroom featuring a king size bed.
There is ample free parking with a private garden to the front and rear providing outdoor seating and sun lounges. In Plaka village you will find an array of restaurants, along with local shops and a mini supermarket.
From here you will be able to take a boat to Spinalonga and there is a bus service to Elounda and Agios Nikolaos.
