The Porphyrousa Traditional Guest House is housed in a building that was built during the Venetian occupation and was a mansion. It is located at the entrance of the medieval village of Mylopotamos amidst a rich natural environment. The village in the hinterland of Kythira and at a distance of only 5 kilometers from the nearest Limnionas beach, is one of the most beautiful villages with the longest history and the most traditional buildings on the island. The building is made as before, without plastic paints and varnishes.
The guest house was restored in 2000 and renovated in 2007, with traditional materials and ecological colors. It is very cool in the summer and very hot in the winter since the walls in many places are more than one meter thick. The furniture is made of wood, by local furniture makers and is a copy of old traditional designs. Stone and wood stand out everywhere on the surfaces. The fireplace offers warmth in winter.
Each accommodation is equipped with a desk, so one can do their homework, write, read. Especially in winter, the guest house is the best choice for “sought after” poets… Here you will experience a completely different situation, of another forgotten era. Trip…
