Vacation Rental Description
In October 2008, an independent travel writer stayed at Allium Villa whilst researching the area for a new book; you can read what he said about the area and the villa in Holiday Villas and Cottages Magazine Issue 2, on sale 17th July 2009. Here is an extract about the villa - "On a hill above the village of Aspro, the villa was spacious (three bedrooms, three bathrooms), beautifully furnished and wonderfully peaceful with spectacular views of the mountains and the sea, especially from the upstairs terrace. The gardens and pool were a delight and there was plenty of room for the car. Nearby Almirida has loads of restaurants and a lovely beach........."
The villa is set on a large quiet and peaceful plot on the outskirts of the famously picturesque village of Aspro and set above the fishing village of Almerida. From the villa ground floor terrace and pool you have lovely views of the surrounding countryside, mountains and sea.
