Nature house in ierapetra
Crete, Greece
- 6 persons
- 3 bedrooms
- Pets allowed
this ruin from the WWII, renovated to sleep 6 pers. is inspired to bring people together. the whole house reflects this in that it is with no doors between rooms. it is also inspired to work more with than again nature- 'bidet' use and not toilet paper, outside hot/cold shower. the front and back yards offer shade and green and the continuing progress of the herb cultivation. lack of space makes cupboards minimal and encourages minimal luggage. simple, functional- doubly so, where possible, like with 2 single beds that can become double, tables with wheels and purpose in each space filled. nothing is extra yet the space invites....relax, repose, cook, explore nearby gorges, wander to the sea, or contemplate permaculture, water cascades, plunge pool, hammam, and various outdoor garden projects, solar energy, aquaponic, grow box.....etc. ......and share your thoughts!.
Nature and surroundings
there is more nature than was planned! this village is deserted. it is slowly being bought up by various kinds of foreigners. because the village Gdochia is surrounded by steep mountains and 5 km from the sea , perhaps this is why , with its undisturbed rivers and mini cascades, the olive orchards, walnut, almond, fig, carob, pine trees have survived and even thrived. lovely fresh natural olive of the hight=est quality can be found here, property purchased and a green way of life pursued.it inspires walks, garden, preservation, free style beach swimming, camping, and chilling....if it gets too ....'hello?, where is everybody?- then the coast villages like Tertsa and Mirtos will get you searching, but also deeper up into the mountains above Gdochia.....there again is a different kind of view.
