The house is situated in a lane area hidden behind high stone walls and gated with a traditional wooden door for more privacy. Highly recommended to guests who want to relax and sample the traditional village life, with many original features, whilst enjoying home through home comforts.

Paradisos Hills is a small family run hotel just 600 meters away from the centre of the village. It is well known for the stunning views, sunsets and off course traditional cuisine.
The location of Lysos allows visitors to make long or short walks in the forest of “Stavros tis Psokas” just outside the village where mouflons can be found. Also, we would recommend to pass a visit by “Debby Maria’s Horses” and go horse riding in the mountains.
