About this property
Traditional Stone House, Garden Terrace Spectacular Views Mountains & Coastline
If you would like to experience a fast disappearing way of life, then this is the place to stay. The traditional village of Kritou Tera, tucked away from the usual tourist trail, yet with easy access to both mountains and beaches, can provide an insight into traditional Cypriot culture. The property is located on the edge of this compact village close to the Akamas National Park, with delightful views over sea and mountains. Situated at 500 metres above sea level, the climate is perfect in the hot summer months. The Cyprus Environment Centre is housed in the old village school indicating the value of this location for anyone interested in the natural environment and the habitat of the flora and fauna. Many organised walking and bird watching holidays are based in the Akamas, with it's variety of coastal paths or high level walks, all with spectacular views. Excellent base for mountain biking in Akamas or the Troodos Mountains. The recently refurbished Droushia Heights Hotel in the neighbouring village, provides an amazing infinity pool which is open to the public all day, if guests purchase drinks, snacks or meals there. So, the Jacaranda is a perfect location for either an energetic or restful break.

About the host
Hosted by Ellen Casson

My husband and I and our family lived and worked for many years in Cyprus, so we know the island very well. We eventually decided to buy a small holiday property and realised it would have to be in the Akamas area, as it's the most beautiful and unspoilt part of the island. We purchased the house in 2002 and used it extensively as a bolt-hole for weekends, as well as for longer holidays. Although we are now retired and living in France, we regularly revisit Cyprus as we have friends in the village and miss the friendliness of the local people.
Why they chose this property
Having discovered this part of the island many years earlier, we returned two or three times a year from our home near Larnaca, in order to camp by the beach in Polis Chrysochou. There was no contest about location once we had decided to buy a property of our own. We love the simple lifestyle and quiet location well away from the tourist areas and concrete jungle that is now Pahos; not to mention some wonderful restaurants in the area. A traditional village house with it's quirky features was more attractive to us than a modern villa with a pool. The beaches are near at hand! It provided sheer escapism from our busy lifestyle!
What makes this property unique
Our village of Kritou Tera is located in a stunning position overlooking Polis, with easy access to Polis, Latchi and Paphos, as well as the beaches and mountains. We love visiting the beaches but didn't want to live near them and their inherent bustle, potential development and traffic. Kritou Tera is a perfect location in which to enjoy the peace and quiet of the countryside, observe (and even get involved in) the local way of life and be surrounded by wonderful walking and cycling country with fabulous views.
The panoramic views from our terrace, veranda and balcony are simply outstanding, as you will gather when reading our reviews.
