Lives in Maroulas, Greece
Julie and myself live at the Old Olive Mill in the Venetian village of Maroulas. When we bought the house the whole property was let during the tourist season. However we fell in love with Maroulas and the Cretan way of life and decided to make this our permanent home. We thought that the two guest rooms would make a fabulous B&B as they are separate from the main house and our guests can have full use of the pool, hot tub, garden, terraces and sun beds. Julie loves cooking and breakfast is first class with homemade bread, cake and preserves. When in season, guests are welcome to pick their own oranges from our trees. The Garden Suite is on the ground floor with direct access to the garden. The Olive Suite is on the first floor and has a private balcony and small terrace. We both speak English και λίγα ελληνικά and look forward to welcoming you to our home
