Summary: Charming 3-bedroom villa with private pool, traditional décor, and panoramic sea and mountain views, near Rethymno and Platanes Beach.
The Space: Teacher’s Cottage is a charming two-level traditional villa nestled in the scenic hills of Crete, just 10 km from the historic town of Rethymno and 3.5 km from the sandy shores of Platanes. Surrounded by lush gardens and olive groves, this beautiful stone-built home offers a relaxing and authentic Cretan experience for families or small groups.
