We have owned the house for over 15 years from new and regularly holiday at the house with our 2 children. Both have had the first summer holidays at Crete at less than a year old! I prepare the house every Spring for guests and make sure everything is in place so you can enjoy a lovely, relaxing stay. If there any issues our neighbours Stefanos and Cheryl are on hand to help.
