Gorgous villa in the countryside
The villa is as described with a very tasty and useful interior,
3 nice bathrooms and 3 bedrooms with very comfortable beds.
The kitchen fairly big is well equipped and and provided all we needed for a descent cooking for our family with 3 adolescents.
Eleni provided us with homemade olive oil, feta from a well known shepherd, eggs from her own hens and she invited us to take tomatoes, peppers etc. from her vegetable garden.
As we rented the house in August / September the garden
all the vegetables were ready to be picked and they tasted just great, although our kids might disagree in that point.
There are plenty of relaxing areas around the property, we did not count them but it felt like being 6 or 7 including 2 big dining tables, to find a shadow and quiet possibility of withdrawal from the family and to read a book or just to chill out with a purring cat on the legs.
The pool was more than big enough for our family and it was even possible to swim, besides were 4 loungers in the shadow, vacation at its best.
We had our favorite breakfast and dining table a few steps above the house's inner court and particularly in the evening with the house`s outer lighting on and a good bottle of wine it was a place we could have sit the whole night.
The walls and terraces in the court are decorated with herbs in plant pots like thyme, rosemary, peppermint and sage.
Every pot has its own water supply, so everything is green smelling just wonderful.
Our highlight was the dinner Eleni cooked for as preparing a wonderful and tasty lamb with potatoes and a salad my son still talks about today.
We enjoied having Eleni for dinner with us, her English is perfect, and so we all had a very interesting conversation and a lot of fun.
Vederi is a very !!! small village, population est. 20something in the countryside with a venetian history about a 10 Minutes drive from Rethymno. The location is very central to reach Iraklio, Chania and of course Rethymno as well as the beaches in the south.
It is absolutely quiet as we did not felt the chicken and occasionally dogs being noisy.
There is a certainly bigger town about 1 mile away, Prines, with a butcher, a very good bakery and a few supermarkets if on the road to Rethymno.
In Prines are as well a few restaurants, although we much more enjoied to cook and spend the evenings in 'our house'.
Eleni was just a wonderful host and the villa is so charming, that we always would come back.
