Property information

In late 2005 the artistry renovation was finished and the house got the name 'Porfyron (Byzantine for red / purple). A plastered house with the color red, unusual in Zagori which is located in the National Park of Pindos, where ones can find only stone-build houses. Staying in Porfyron will warm you like a warm blanket of luxury. An unusual luxury of natural beauty, luxurious simplicity and domesticity. You will feel at home and enjoy the spacious, comfortable rooms for the most relaxing sleep, beautiful garden, cozy lounge and restaurant, rich homemade breakfast and the best, traditional dinners. A place to return, to remember, for all the best feelings life has given us.
