Ta Petrina's beautifully restored and charmingly decorated village houses offer you the opportunity to spend a relaxing and comfortable holiday in the peace and quiet of the traditional village of Volissos on the unspoilt island of Chios Greece.Ta Petrina, which means "Stone Houses" in Greek, is a partnership between Michaelis, a local Greek builder, Patrick, an English carpenter who has lived in Volissos for the past ten years and our English friends. The houses have been renovated to a very high standard while keeping their traditional feel. The combination of Michaelis' building skills and local knowledge, together with Patrick's carpentry and his partner Maria's interior design expertise, have created a unique atmosphere in each house.

 

Sitting just below Panayiotis, Lagos has panoramic views across the village to the sea beyond and the mountains to the East. It is a very large house that can be either rented as a whole for large families or groups of friends or split into two quite separate and independent properties.
LITTLE HOUSE Sleeps 2-3
The Little House is to the front of Lagos. The upper ground floor is a large living room-kitchen which opens out onto a terrace with superb views of the sea and mountains. The lower floor has a double bedroom, bathroom with shower and a built in sofa bed in the spacious hall at the bottom of the stairs.
GARDEN HOUSE Sleeps 6-7
The Garden House is at the back of Lagos and is again on two levels. The top level consists of the spacious living room / kitchen which opens out onto a shaded terrace and garden, which are both safe for children. On the terrace there is an outside shower.

On this level there is a twin bedroom and a separate bathroom with a shower. A staircase leads to a large gallery with two beds. On the lower level there is a double bedroom with large separate bathroom with bath and washing machine.
Both houses have very well equipped kitchens, with electric cookers, making it a pleasure to cook at home. They have been beautifully furnished and decorated using local village antiques. Both houses are supplied with bath and beach towels. The property is easily accessible by car.
 

The village is 2 km from its small port of Limnia and the nearest beaches of Lefkathia and Limnos. Just a little further away is the 6 km long Managros beach. Apart from these which ever way you go up or down the coast there are numerous beaches to choose from making it always easy to find a secluded spot to enjoy the crystal waters of the Aegean.
Volissos has many tavernas to choose from either down at the harbour and beach or up in the village, offering you a wide choice of good, traditional Greek food. There are also two cafe-bars in the port where you can sip your Ouzo watching the fishing boats come and go while the sun slips below the horizon.
Though it is possible to walk to the beaches we recommend that you rent a car or a motorbike which we can arrange for you and which will be waiting at the airport or delivered to Volissos.
As you sit on your terrace enjoying the mountains slowly turning pink in the last rays of the sun we hope that you will appreciate why we think that Volissos and our houses will allow you to relax, unwind and slowly slip into its peaceful rhythm. This quite tranquility broken only by the occasional hooting of an owl or braying of a donkey.
