Apeiros Chora, Kato Pedina

An imposing building in Kato Pedina, this Zagori mansion, converted into a guesthouse, is made unique by its design and authentic accommodation experience.

“Serving as the family home over eight generations, most of the original elements have been carefully preserved for inclusion into the building’s new appearance and use. We took care to enhance the place with all the modern amenities sought by modern-day travellers, and also opted for environmentally friendly energy systems aligned with the planet’s needs,” explained Athena, who, along with her husband, Giorgos, and their son, Xenophon, offers high-quality services at a building of significant architectural history for the region.

As in the past, the kitchen is still at the heart of the building. Irresistibly flavoured biscuits, delicious cakes, pies and tarts are all made on a daily basis at this guesthouse kitchen, delightful and sparse with many references to its past. This guesthouse offers 8 rooms, differing in style, over three floors. Kato Pedina, +30 2653071188, apeiroschora.gr

Porfyron, Ano Pedina

Made distinctive by its crimson colour amongst the stone houses of Ano Pedina, Porfyron has managed to preserve a balance with the building’s history, dating back to 1850. The building originally served as a private residence, hosting, for many years, a prominent doctor of the region. In 1960, it was converted into a girls’ school, while its present owners, Rita and Giannis, bought the building in dilapidated state. Their extensive revamp effort resulted in a gorgeous and comfortable guesthouse with eight rooms, most with fireplaces. The facility is filled with history, which is further highlighted by the choice of furniture and decorative elements, all old-style. A French map from the mid-19th century, at the guesthouse’s main interior staircase, is impressive. Both Rita and Giannis prepare delicious dishes that may be enjoyed for breakfast or as meals. Giannis oversees the menu, which is revised daily and includes vegan selections. Ano Pedina, +30 2653071579, porfyron.gr

Thoukididis, Kapesovo

Life continues to be injected into Kapesovo, an old stone-built village, by the Papageorgiou family, through its running of the Thoukidis guesthouse. Gianna, one of the family’s daughters – the other, Elli, runs Sterna, a café and shop serving and selling homemade delights, as well as various other regional items, including maps and books – focuses on the essence of hospitality. Her meticulous approach makes this guesthouse’s accommodation experience unique, fine touches including ideal mattresses and quality cosmetics. Each of the six rooms of this stately building, built in 1875, has its own name, indicating its original use, when a prominent family of the region lived in the house. For example, the Mantzato room is where the old residents dined, the Ontas room was the summer room, while the Mesofounti room, as was discovered during the building’s renovation, provided a link to the mansion next door as protection against invaders during Ottoman rule. Gianna, upon arrangement, can prepare exceptional meals for guests based on regional recipes. She uses organic vegetables from the guesthouse garden.
