About this property
Joleni Cottage: peaceful, accessible nature retreat, only minutes from beaches
Joleni Cottage is a green hideaway situated on the outskirts of Keramies Village (in the Leivathos region in the South of Kefalonia). During its renovation, the 100 sqm one-level house was converted to allow wheelchair access. It is convenient for guests with limited mobility but also for those who enjoy the comfort of a barrier-free holiday cottage.
The house is located 200m from the street along an unpaved side road and offers privacy and tranquillity. If you are looking for a peaceful retreat in a green environment, this is the place for you.
Joleni Cottage is conveniently located for exploring the island. Several beautiful beaches are only a short drive of 10-15 minutes away. Argostoli and the airport are within a 15-minute drive. A basic minimarket and a traditional taverna are within a 10-minute walk in the village. A restaurant, two cafes/bars, and two more minimarkets are in the neighbouring village of Spartia, just a 2-minute drive away.
An open-plan, fully equipped kitchen with a dining -and sitting area offers plenty of space. From here patio doors open to the covered terrace with table and chairs.
• Main bedroom: double bed with a width of 1,60m. Access to the sun terrace.
• Second bedroom: 2 single beds with the option of an additional folding bed.
• Bathroom: plenty of daylight, floor-level shower. A washing machine is provided.
• Additional WC.
• Terraces: The roofed terrace can be accessed from the living room, the uncovered sun terrace is accessible directly from the main bedroom. The third terrace under the oak tree offers shade all through the day.
• Sleeping Arrangements: The cottage sleeps 4-5 persons, with options for an additional folding bed in the twin bedroom or alternatively on the sleeping sofa of the sitting area.
• Air conditioning in all rooms
• Mosquito screens on all windows and doors
• WIFI free of charge
• TV with free satellite channels. Netflix, Disney+, Amazon Prime etc. with your own log-in
• Wheelchair accessible parking for step-free access into the house
• Wheelchair accessible bathroom
• Sunbeds
A hire car is recommended
LGBT-friendly, all guests are welcome
For guests with limited mobility:
The ground-floor level cottage is step-free throughout the house. The bathroom has a roll-in shower and a wash basin with wheelchair clearance since the cupboards underneath are provided with rolls to be placed somewhere else in the bathroom. This gives the washbasin an accessible height of 68cm. A shower stool is available. The widths of all doors are between 81cm and 1m. The hall and hallway are 2,20m and 1,24m wide. The parking space in the front allows step-free access to the house.

About the host
Hosted by Heike

I have been living in Greece for 30 years. Having grown up in Germany I fell in love with Greece during my first journey many years ago and decided to live and work here. In the summer months, I work as a guide.
Why they chose this property
Joleni Cottage is a quiet retreat in the middle of nature yet only a short drive away from everything you might wish for: several beautiful beaches, the capital Argostoli or places to visit like the Venetian fortress St.George and the monastery of St. Andrew.
What makes this property unique
Joleni Cottage is wheelchair friendly and has an especially large bathroom with wheel-in shower and removable cupboards under the sink to allow wheelchair access at the sink. The ground-level house is set on a plot of 2200m2 with a large garden and offers privacy and tranquillity.
