The villa comprises 2 self contained living spaces. 5 bedrooms in total (3 downstairs & 2 upstairs). Both floors have ample living spaces (lounge area, dining table and kitchen) with Smart TV and DVD. The prices listed are for rental of the full villa but we are happy to take bookings outside of peak season for the ground floor only (3 bedrooms) at a reduced price - please contact owners for details). The first floor apartment will only be available to those renting the rest of the house, giving the opportunity to have a 5 bedroom, 3 bathroom house for larger families, multiple families or friendship groups. Additionally, we can accommodate 3 additional guests with extra beds in the upstairs living room and charge only a small additional fee. This villa is well equipped: it is a family home as well as a holiday rental and 'comfort' is the 'watch word'. Free WiFi, two well-equipped kitchens, good quality bed linen and towels, comfortable beds and sofas: we want our guests to feel as comfortable in our home as they do in theirs. Hot water is supplied by solar power with a supplementary immersion electric heater. There are wood burners on both floors. The Walnut Tree has a 10m x 5m swimming pool, table tennis and a boule court. The villa is surrounded by landscaped grounds of around an acre with lawns and terraces, a barbecue area with a fire pit and a productive olive grove. From the first floor there are glimpses of the sea and the island of Ithaca in the distance. The joy of The Walnut Tree villa is the 360 degree view of the surrounding area - olive groves, farmland and hills as well as the far distant mountains of the Kefalonian National Park of Mount Aenos. The town/port of Sami is a comfortable 4km from the villa with a good range of tavernas, restaurants and bars as well as supermarkets, butcher, bakeries, a greengrocer, paper shop, laundry/dry cleaner. There is a post office, banks and ATMs. The villa is near two villages, Karavomilos and Poulata both with wonderful tavernas and restaurants. Walking in the area round the villa is a ‘must’ to soak up the atmosphere and traditions of the island. Above all, the villa is near to many discrete little beaches all along the coast with the beautiful and famous Antisamos Beach about ten minutes away and the world famous Myrtos beach. At Antisamos you can enjoy water sports and beach bars and tavernas and of course, the crystal clear water. The swimming and snorkelling here is magical. Many of the beach bars provide free sun loungers and parasols for their guests. There is a wonderful new museum in Sami - describing the locality’s ancient history. The beautiful Cave Lake of Melissani and Drogarati Caves are also nearby. ## Property amenities ### Beach - Beach towels ### Pool/Spa - Outdoor pool - Private pool ### Internet - Available in the villa: Free WiFi ### Parking and transport - Car recommended - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Blender - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Electric kettle - Hob - Microwave - Oven - Paper towels - Refrigerator - Spices - Toaster ### Dining - Dining table ### Bedrooms - 5 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 2.5 bathrooms - Bathtub or shower - Hair dryer - Shampoo - Soap - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table - Fireplace - Living room - Wood stove ### Entertainment - Books - DVD player - Games - Music library - Smart TV ### Outdoor areas - Balcony - Barbecue grill - Fenced yard - Firepit - Garden - Outdoor furniture ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Work spaces - Computer monitor - Desk ### Comfort - Air conditioning - Heating ### Pets - No pets allowed ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoke-free property ### Services and conveniences - Housekeeping (on request) - Iron/ironing board - Safe ### Location highlights - In a rural location - In a village - In the mountains - Near a hospital - Near the bay - Near the marina - Near the sea ### Things to do - Table tennis - Water sports equipment - Birdwatching nearby - Ecotours nearby - Fishing nearby - Hiking/biking trails nearby - Horseback riding nearby - Jet skiing nearby - Kayaking nearby - Motor boating nearby - Mountain biking nearby - Mountain climbing nearby - Parasailing nearby - Rock climbing nearby - Sailing nearby - Scuba diving nearby - Snorkelling nearby - Spelunking nearby - Swimming nearby - Theme park nearby - Water skiing nearby - Water tubing nearby - Wildlife walks nearby - Windsurfing nearby - Winery tours nearby ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector (host has indicated there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) - First aid kit - Fire extinguisher - Deadbolt lock ### General - At least 80% lighting from LEDs - Composting - Garden - Housekeeping (on request) - Recycling - Solar energy - Unit size: 2,153 square feet ## Policies ### Check-in Check-in time starts at 4:00 PM Minimum check-in age - 30 ### Check-out Check-out before 10:00 AM ### Special check-in instructions You will receive an email from the host with check-in and check-out instructions ### Check-out instructions The host requires you to complete the following before checking out: Load and start the dishwasher Gather used towels Remove personal items and remove leftover food and drinks Turn off the lights, lock the doors and return the keys Turn off air conditioning Empty dishwasher & return crockery etc to original cupboards Failure to complete these may result in a negative review from the host. ### Rules Strictly no stags or hen parties Smoking outside only and please use ashtrays provided.
