CHILL OUT ON ANTIPAROS

In a traditional hotel in the ultimate Greek island location – for only £325

It's more “…PLUS” than walking, but if you fancy a relaxing holiday either on its own or added on to a Walking Plus holiday as a warm-up or wind-down, we recommend a particular small hotel in an idyllic setting…
The hotel overlooks a sheltered strip of water where seals, dolphins and loggerhead turtles swim. The sun sets over an islet that is now deserted, but where there’s evidence of human settlement and sanctuaries dating back thousands of years.

The hotel is run by the warm and enthusiastic Magda and her husband Michaelis. Rooms are traditionally furnished with painted furniture and pictures, many of them done by Magda herself.

If you want to explore, Magda will arrange car hire from €20 a day, or you can follow her programme of gentle activities and trips including morning guided walks, and insights into local life such as honey- and cheese-making. The trips/activities are not included in the price of the holiday. For an additional £60 you can sign up for guided walks on three days of the week.
