Thymes house took its name from the hill that it is built on, as it was a place full of the herb thyme. You can still smell its scent together with other Cretan herbs. Our house was an old mansion, now renovated with traditional and very tasteful decoration. The flirt of traditional is apparent everywhere and views are magnificent. Loulos village is a traditional village, part of Keramia, a complex of 14 villages on a plateau-basin at the feet of the White Mountains. It has a living room with a double sofa and traditional furniture, dining area inside and outside, a large veranda with a swing and lots of flowers, a wash basin and a patio with parasol and sun beds. It also has flat screen TV, A/C, Wi-Fi, 2 bedrooms with iron double beds, beautifully decorated, bathroom with shower and laundry machine, kitchen fully equipped and with spectacular view from its window. There is even an old fashion heater. More, there is private entrance to the property with long parking for more than 2 cars. There are plenty of olive trees around.

Birdsong, the tinkling of goat bells, and incredible views… Ms. Sofia’s place is magical. Our family found her home to be very comfortable with everything we needed for a short stay. We would love to return.
The whole experience was wonderful. Sofia is an amazing person who provided a beautiful home. She was very helpful and generous. I can highly recommend staying here if you want comfort amongst fantastic mountain views.

Schönes Haus mit toller Veranda und super Ausblick
Leider hatten wir nur eine knappe Woche in Sofias ruhig in einem Olivenhain gelegenen Haus. Gerne wären wir noch geblieben. Das Haus ist komfortabel, hat eine tolle Veranda und einen atemberaubenden Blick auf die Gipfelkette der Weißen Berge. Es wurde von seiner Besitzerin mit vielen persönlichen Einrichtungsgegenständen gemütlich eingerichtet. Die Betten sind bequem und die Küche ist gut ausgestattet. Sofia hat uns sehr nett empfangen. Sie wohnt 15 Kilometer entfernt, ist aber jederzeit erreichbar und kommt nach Absprache auch mal kurz vorbei, um die vielen schönen Blumen zu gießen. Nicht zuletzt wegen ihrer herzlichen Art hatten wir eine besonders schöne Zeit im Thyme Traditional House.
