Rustic House in Arcadia

Description:
Nestled in the Arcadian Mountain of Mainalon, Vytina ( Bytina ), the Myconos of the mountains, has long been a busy all year long mountain resort, famous for its very good climate, feta cheese and evergreen fern bee honey. Sitting that is being engulphed between two gigantic mountaintops of Mainalon, at 1,000 meters elevation and geographically at the center of Peloponnesos, Bytina is an authentic, traditional Greek village. It has become a very popular summer resort town, and also a very rare Greek spot for skiing and winter sports, and since it is only 2 1/2 hours from Athens, a popular week-end destination year round for Athenians. It is also a great stop, en-route to Olympia, or while exploring Peloponnesos for many European and other international visitors.

In a region and a village reknown for its large black marble stone homes, with a unique vaulted window architecture, our home at Bytina, is right at the center of the village.
A traditional 18th century “Archontiko”, or large village family home, it has been in our family for over four generations and we have completely updated and modernized it recently, with an effort not to lose it’s authenticity. It has three bedrooms, two bathrooms, and a open space living room, kitchen and dining area. It has a large patio at its entrance, and a sizable back garden, which is facing the Mainalon Mountain, a large fern evergreen forested covered scene.
In Vytina there are several reastaurants, pastry shops and cafes, bakeries, wood carving artist studios, grocery stores,
bike rentals, bee honey and oreganon and other small stores. The whole village is very walkable with its magnificant black marble homes with centuries of local architecture. The people are friendly and very hospitable. Near by at Lousios there is center for white rafting, fishing, and other outdoor sports. It is very near to Ostakina Mainalon ski resort, Mainalon mountain walks or drives, Lousios river kayak sports and Ladonas river dam, for fresh water fishing. It is a day trip away fom sites like Mycinae, Olympia, Patras, Corinth, Sparta, Mistras. The area around Vytina is on of the primary stages where the Greek revolution of 1821 took place and where modern state of Greece was born. It is also the area where many Greek Americans trace their ancestry from.
It is Quintessential Arcadian Greek Village nestled in the mountains,
within a deep forest of evergreen. Come visit.
