About this property
Stone Built in a Private Estate with Great Views and Privacy
This traditional stone-built property benefits from awe-inspiring vistas and wonderful secluded grounds; an ideal hideaway for those seeking a slower, more peaceful pace.
Well appointed above the hamlet of Porta and surrounded by greenery, the charm of the villa inside is the attention to detail throughout, with antiques and beamed ceilings adding unique character to the ambience. There is a large veranda at the front of the house. This spot is perfect for lunches in the shade, with a simple table and chairs and several pots of flowers and herbs. A few steps down, the infinity pool is a magnificent turquoise colour. With plenty of room to spread out, little terraces and patios operate on different levels within the grounds. Clearly delineated with stones is the original ‘thresher’s floor’ where horses or donkeys walking in a continuous circle would separate the grain from the chaff by crushing it on the hard surface. Ideal for breakfast, the main balcony that runs along the living area looks out to a glorious panorama of the Albanian mountains and the verdant hillsides that drop down to the Ionian Sea. Double French windows in the living area give light and an air of spaciousness to the interior. Comfy sofas cluster around the fireplace, and an elegant dining area is enhanced with dainty lace curtains filtering in the sunshine. A twin bedroom, decorated with pretty floral curtains and bedcovers, also has a fireplace. Another twin and a double bedroom (master bedroom) share the balcony that runs along the main area of the house, in prime position to enjoy the stunning sunrise.

I am very happy that you enjoyed your stay at my house, hope to see you again in the future. Greetings to your lovely family,Aristidis
Very nice and super accomodating host. Unique location, perfect for a relaxing vacation. Need a car. We will hopefully come back. The owner (Aristidis) was available all the time with very short turn around time for any kind of quedtions
We loved it at the house. It was so nice and the location was unique. It was a little separated from other houses and we really liked that.
The way to the house is an nice adventure!
Aristidis is a very nice host and such a lovely person!
Thank you

We had a wonderful two weeks at this property - a beautiful house and location away from the hustle and bustle of the coast. The views are spectacular, the house well equipped and the pool lovely. A car is essential, as are nerves of steel. Mountain driving may not be for everyone. 2 mins drive to Kassiopi with shops/tavernas. We drove to many little bays in North Corfu and to Corfu Old Town (about 90 mins). Hiring a book is also a great way to see the coastline. There are many available (we used Fontas boats, Nissaki - good value and helpful intro on how to use the boat). Aristidis was a kind and thoughtful host, very responsive and quick to action any concerns.
This place is amazing! We spent a week here in October and were spoilt with sunshine. In the mornings we watched beautiful sunrises, later we mostly went about exploring the beautiful area on foot - you can actually walk out the back door and hike all the way up to Mount Pantokrator - or by car, which, yes, is a little bit tricky since Thresher's House is situated high up. The house itself is a gem. It was always easy to contact Aristidis and though we didn't get to meet personally we felt like real guests rather than paying ones. Thank you, Aristidis, for a wonderful week!
PPantokeator - or by car.
Wir hatten eine tolle Herbstwoche im sehr geräumigen und liebevoll eingerichteten Haus mit einer unglaublichen Aussicht auf Albanien. Der Vermieter war super nett und hat uns sogar angeboten die beiden offenen Kamine mit seinem Holz zu befeuern. Alternativ konnten wir bei den etwas kühleren Nächten die Klimaanlagen zum Heizen verwenden. Es empfiehlt sich auf jeden Fall in Korfu-Stadt in einem größeren Supermarkt einzukaufen, da die Transfers zu den kleinen Supermärkten in der Nähe auf Grund der Infrastruktur auch viel Zeit in Anspruch nehmen und die Geschäfte merklich teurer sind und nur ein sehr kleines Sortiment vorhalten.
Wir kommen auf jeden Fall wieder!!!
Lieben Dank nocjmal an Aristidis für die tolle Woche!
The Thresher's House ist ein wundervoller Ort, um zur Ruhe zu kommen. Der Ausblick auf die albanische Küste ist genial, so wie auch das gesamte restliche Anwesen. Aristidis ist ein toller und sehr hilfsbereiter Gastgeber. Wir haben uns sehr wohlgefühlt und kommen bestimmt wieder.
Nach einer langen Anreise haben wir hungrig und durstig unser Haus in der Dunkelheit gefunden. Aristides hatte vorgesorgt und uns Getränke , Brot Aufschnitt und Eier zur Begrüßung in den Kühlschrank gelegt und uns schon am ersten Abend glücklich gemacht.
Das Haus liegt einsam und verlassen und man kann dem Touristengewimmel wunderbar entfliehen. Die Ruhe, der Ausblick nach Albanien und der Außenpool waren heilend für unsere Großstadtseelen und wir haben uns 3 Wochen lang wunderbar erholt. Zum nächsten "Supermarkt" oder zu einem Restaurant ist es immer viel Fahrerei und somit haben wir uns häufig selber versorgt, haben gegrillt oder gekocht oder einfach nur einen Bauernsalat ,Oliven und Zaziki gegessen. Aristides ist ein wunderbarer Gastgeber, der uns immer geholfen hat, wenn wir Fragen oder Wünsche hatten. Er hat uns Strände gezeigt, die nicht so überlaufen waren und Restaurants in denen es gutes Essen gab.
Eingekauft haben wir immer in Nikos Supermarkt in Kassiopi. Dort gab es alles, was man zum Leben braucht und gratis dazu ein freundliches Lächeln von Ihm, seiner Frau oder seiner Tochter. Alles in Allem haben wir uns sehr wohl gefühlt und sollten wir irgendwann einmal wieder nach Korfu kommen, dann werden wir wieder dieses Haus mieten.
Très jolie maison sans aucun bruit environnant. 3 grandes chambres avec climatisation. Très grand séjour. Terrasse avec une vue magnifique sur des oliviers, la mer et la côte albanaise. Piscine en plein soleil très agréable.
Accueil chaleureux et très sympathique du propriétaire Aristidis ( la maison était celle de son grand-père ) qui peut vous conseiller sur les bonnes tables aux alentours.
A 20 minutes, on trouve la petite ville de Kassiopi avec restaurants sur un joli front de mer.
A 20 minutes également, la plage d'Avlaki, qui est propre et peu fréquentée ( même en plein mois d'aout ) avec une eau cristalline et pas mal de place pour les voitures.
Wir haben wunderschöne Tage im Haus von Aristides verbracht. Der Ausblick ist grandios, die Lage des Hauses mitten in der Natur. Die Strassen auf Korfu sind zwar in keinem guten Zustand, aber man wird belohnt wenn man ankommt. Wer die Einsamkeit und Ruhe braucht, ist dort genau richtig. Vielen Dank Aristides!
Aristidis ist ein unglaublich freundlicher Gastgeber und das Haus hat total viel Charme und eine überragende Aussicht.
Wir haben den Aufenthalt sehr genossen.
Wir haben für 2 Wochen dieses traumhafte Haus und Anwesen nutzen dürfen. Die Lage ist super, traumhafter Blick bis zur albanischen Küste. Das Haus drinnen wie draußen sehr sauber und gepflegt. Es lies keine Wünsche offen. Sehr viele Sitzgelegenheiten vorhanden also war immer ein schattiges Plätzchen zu finden. Der Pool sehr gepflegt, wurde von Aristridis 2x die Woche gereinigt. Aristridis ist ein sehr netter Vermieter, der sich um alle unsere Belange super gekümmert hat. Wer Ruhe und Abgeschiedenheit sucht ist hier genau richtig. Die Anfahrt ist etwas abenteuerlich aber gut machbar. Zum Einkafen waren wir immer bei Nikos Supermarkt in Kassiopi. Ein gut sortierter Markt immer frische Sachen und auch ein gutes Angebot an Grillspezialitäten. Wir hatten einen super Urlaub. Danke auch noch mal an Aristridis.

Liebe Andrea
Ich bin sehr zufrieden, dass Sie einen angenehmen Urlaub in meinem Haus verbracht haben und danke Ihnen für Ihre freundlichen Worte. Es wird mir eine große Freude und Ehre sein, Sie in Zukunft wieder zu Gast zu haben.
Aristidιs
The house is charming and the views are breathtaking. We really wanted a break from being in the city and the property was perfect for that.
The house is well equipped to make your own food, and there are plenty of dining options in Kassiopi and other nearby towns.
We would definitely stay here again.
Wonderful Villa in the mountains with glorious views.
Aristides was very attentive and a great host
Only downside is getting there. Be sure to take the long route that Aristide gives and do not use Satnav as it will take you left and a supermarket with a small sign saying P Sines which is entirely wrong and leads to an impassable ascent for anything but a land rover!
Do not take the first option either as this is very steep.
Take the longest option. It will tell you to take a left towards the sign for Porta. Just below the sign is a small sign indicating Thresher House. The turn is on a bend just before a big yard selling logs (on the right) about 2km from kassiopi. Once you have gone left follow the road for 5km up the mountain to Thresher House. Do not deviate and follow any other signs. Once you are there it is bliss!
Das Haus ist einsame Spitze. Alles ist sauber und gepflegt. Alle Sachen die man im Haushalt braucht sind vorhanden. Wer die totale Ruhe haben möchte ist hier genau richtig. Man braucht auf jeden Fall ein Auto. Der Vermieter Aristidis ist ein sehr, sehr Netter Mensch. Er kümmert sich sofort um alles wenn was nicht in Ordnung ist. Es war ein wunderschöner Urlaub, immer wieder gerne.
