Stay at Oliver's Cottage
The journey to the cottage qas confusing and not for the faint hearted. We arrived late which made things tricky. However, we loved the cottage. Beautifully and thoughtfully renovated. Views were amazing and we loved being visited by the local cats and puppies in the morning. We went on the Pelion train (a must) We visited lots of beautiful places and made some lovely friends. Including at the ouzeria only open on Sunday. Definitely want to come back. We even left our beach umbrella behind to ensure a return visit! Thank you x

Charming cottage
Enjoyed our time there. However, initially had trouble finding it and as my husband has some mobilìty issues it took him a few days to feel comfortable managing the terrain/stairs. Overall it was a delightful place to stay.

What a place!
We so enjoyed being at Oliver’s Cottage in Ano Gratzea! The house was beautiful and tucked away in the hills. Truly great views. Very nice stay!! Highly recommend. And the area it’s situated in is wonderful. Two hours from Meteora. Three hours from Philippi and Thessaloniki. 5-10 Great beaches within 5-60 minutes!

Isolated stone house, in the middle of nowhere
Beautiful view, but on the terrace and balcony no shade. Hard to reach, not easy to explore the pilion or to go to the beach. Fit for wanderers in spring and autumn. When we arrived there was no one to let us in, no key in the door. We waited almost two hours, hope it was a misunderstanding...

Charming Greek mountain house
Lovely house, splendid views, wonderful olive grove location. Richard provided excellent directions which were very helpful, as well as other tips for things to do locally. The drive to the house is rather hair raising the first time but you soon get used to it! It's lovely for either relaxing at home or exploring the Pelion peninsula. Of the west coast villages, Kato Gatzea - the nearest and one of the smallest - was our favourite. We'd be happy to stay here again if we come back to the Pelion and would love to come back at a cooler time of the year when we could do more walking.

Remote cottage in a beautiful area
Quite challenging access for this property, not for faint-hearted drivers. Property very well-maintained and clean, easy to live in. Good walking direct from the cottage, and well placed for the majority of the peninsula. No welcome basket or gift which is unusual for Greece (especially as we arrived on a Sunday evening); not a very friendly village either - which is also most unusual.

Four stars is a very good rating
My son and I spend 14 wonderful days here in Juli. We enjoyed the beautiful cottage and the tranquility of the village.The owner, Richard Dawson, is friendly and helpful and knows the area well. The Pelion peninsula is excellent for hiking. If hiking is your main reason for coming here, you should consider going in spring or fall, as the summer is too hot for longer walks. I would certainly recommend that you hire a car, because you will want to drive to various beaches and villages and when you need to get supplies for the fridge. If you are a timid driver, the last, steep drive up into the village might be a little intimidating. Some of our favorite restaurants in the area were: Maria and Yorgos' cafe in the village, Paris' in Kala Nera and the restaurant at Sakia Camping next to Kala Gatzea. We were not disappointed- the cottage is lovely and the whole area quite spectacular.
