The property owner cannot be faulted with her kindness and consideration. We felt that the cleanliness could be improved, and we felt that there was an excess of clutter contained in the residence.

Relaxing days guaranteed at Casa Sophia
We spent ten days in mid-May 2023 in the well-equipped house of Sophia and Mogens who received us very friendly and provided us with good tips, interesting information and small attentions. We don’t miss anything. The house is very individually furnished with a lot of love. Highly recommended.

Paradise with a view
Our first impression of Casa Sophia was the description and photo on the website. Following our booking we received a wonderful description of Sophia and Mogens home and, the surrounding area. We drove from the North West of The Peleonnese using the descriptive guide from Sophia and Mogens and arrived, with no hickups, late in the afternoon. The surprise awaited us!!!!! We parked our car out of the village and walked slowly through the narrow, cobbled roads and lanes to the beautiful wrought iron front gates of Casa Sophia. Sophia greeted us with a welcoming smile and showed us through her gorgeous home. Once we stepped onto the terrace and, then inside, the peace came over us. The house offered us all we wished for, including some extra goodies! We made ourselves at home and sorted out our luggage as we had been travelling for 3 weeks. Sophia kindly washed our travel soiled clothing and offered us suggestions of the different possibilities of exploring the mountains or the coastline. We spent our days arising late, enjoying a delicious breakfast on the terrace listening to the birds and gazing at the azure Mediteranean Sea. Off in the car exploring the mountain villages was an adventure and great fun discovering the spots to stop for a Greek salad and coffee - one under a 100 year old Sycamore tree. The Bysantine Chapels and churches are very special in this area and well worth stopping to take a look inside. As it was very hot we always made it to the sea for a late cooling swim, headed back to Pygos, refreshed ourselves and then drove 10 mins to one of the seaside villages for a delicious Greek meal. Thank you very much Sophia and Mogens for our wonderful stay in your home and congratulation on making it such a special place. We will recommend Casa Sophia on the Mani in the Peleponnese to our friends, family and travel agent. Go well both of you. Warmest regards, Kerrie and Rob

Gemütliche Ferienwohnung mit einer phantastischen Terasse mit Meerblick
Sophia ist eine nette und aufmerksame Gastgeberin. Die Ferienwohnung ist sehr komfortabel und gemütlich. Eine Grundausstattung mit Speisen und Getränken ist bei Ankunft vorhanden. Das Beste ist die Terasse mit vielen Blumen und Pflanzen. Von dort hat man einen phantastischen Blick auf den Messinischen Golf. Das Dorf Pyrgos ist etwas verschlafen aber mit dem Auto ist man in wenigen Minuten in Stoupa oder Agios Nikolaos.

Haus mit Charme
Wir haben den Aufenthalt und die Ruhe in diesem geschmackvoll eingerichteten Haus sehr genossen. Die Küche ist prima ausgestattet und die geräumige Terasse lädt zum Verweilen ein. Das Dorf ist malerisch gelegen und hat seinen eigenen Charme. Sophia versorgt ihre Gäste mit Geheimtipps zur Erkundung der Gegend - sowohl das Meer als auch das Gebirge sind gut zu erreichen. Die Kommunikation mit Sophia verlief einfach perfekt. Als wir kurz vor Mitternacht endlich eintrafen, wartete noch ein Snack auf uns. Vielen Dank für alles, liebe Sophia!

Auf Entdeckungsreise
Wir wurden superfreundlich empfangen und Sophia hatte für uns sogar schon etwas eingekauft. Die Lage ist super ruhig und schön gelegen mit Blick auf das Meer. Man kann schön auf der Terrasse entspannen. Das wirklich historische Haus wurde sehr gut restauriert und liebevoll eingerichtet und dekoriert. Die Vermieter sind einfach total nett und jederzeit für Anliegen zur Stelle. Sehr herzlich. Also nur zu empfehlen. Wir haben hier eine sehr schöne Zeit verbracht.

Wunderschönes Haus in toller Umgebung
Wir hatten einen wunderbaren Aufenthalt in Sophias Haus. Sophia ist eine sehr nette, herzliche und ausgesprochen diskrete Gastgeberin. Insbesondere die Terrasse mit den tollen Pflanzen war ein absoluter Traum. Auch ihre zahlreichen Tipps für Unternehmungen, Strände und Restaurants waren toll und sehr hilfreich. Gerne immer wieder.

Altes, sehr gepflegtes Steinhaus für Pflanzenliebhaber
Das Haus ist mit viel Liebe zum Detail eingerichtet, sehr gut ausgestattet (Küche) und obgleich im Dorfverbund gelegen Tag und Nacht sehr, sehr ruhig; auf der Terasse sitzt man herrlich im Grünen. Sofia ist eine sehr zuvorkommende, hilfsbereite Gastgeberin. Auto erforderlich, da es in Pyrgos selbst nur ein kleines Kafenion gibt. Wir haben unseren Aufenthalt sehr genossen. Kleiner Minuspunkt: Beim Kofferpacken für unseren 4-wöchigen Aufenthalt hatten wir uns auf eine (im Inserat angegebene) Waschmaschine eingestellt, die es dann leider nicht gab.

Excellent
From communications before arrival to a goodbye at the gate the hosts were wonderful, attentive and very helpful. My wife had been walking through Italy for three weeks while I was leading a scooter tour around Greece. The plan was for me to join her in Italy but the Peloponnese was cooler and had much less tourist so she joined me. We were looking for a nice quite comfortable place to spend some time and Casa Sophia exceeded our expectations. Though we spent most of our time on the terrace reading or walking locally, we made a daily venture up the mountains to one of the small villages for lunch. Or, we drove the quick 5 minutes down the mountain to one of the local beach towns. This was a fantastic break for us and Casa Sophia and it's location is what made it so. PS: even the knifes where sharp.

Wunderschönes Haus in denkmalwürdigem Dorf
Wir hatten sehr erholsame 14 Tage in dem sehr schönen, liebevoll restaurierten Ferienhaus von Sophia und Mogens in Pyrgos - einem sehr altem Dorf, traumhaft ruhig, landschaftlich schön gelegen, und für verschiedene Aktivitäten und Ausflüge in die äussere, innere, und östliche Mani sehr gut geeignet. Die geschmackvolle Gestaltung der Terrasse setzt sich im Inneren des Hauses fort, und durch die ausgeprägte Diskretion der sehr freundlichen Gastgeber fühlt man sich völlig ungestört.

Es fehlt an nichts! Es gibt Reisetipps von Sophia, Führer und Karten im Haus auch Spiele, englische Bücher, Strandspielzeug und Sonnenschirm stehen zur Verfügung.

Wonderful location
Casa Sophia is situated in very picturesque mountain village. We found the apartment spacious, atmospheric and cosy and well equipped. The terrace is beautiful and offers an amazing view over the coast. Apartment and village are extraordinarily quiet and private. It is perfecly set for excursions and hiking tours into the mountains, but also in close distance to the sea, costal villages and restaurants. We were more than happy to have found the beautiful place and had a very relaxing and verstile holiday. Sophia is very welcoming, warm, supportive and discreet. It was a pleasure being her guest.

Tolle Unterkunft! Schnuckeliges Haus und sehr nette Gastgeber
Die Unterkunft ist wirklich toll. Gemütlich und es ist großzügig Platz. Es ist halt alles urig, aber das erwarte ich auch bei einem solch alten und tollen Haus. Das Dorf ist klein und ebenfalls sehr alt. Sie Häuschen sind alle wirklich hübsch. Die Beschreibung des Objektes war komplett wahrheitsgetreu und nicht unter oder übertrieben. Sophia hatte immer einen Rat: wo schwimmen gehen, wo ist es etwas kühler, wo dies, wo das und ein kleiner aber niemals aufdringlicher Plausch war immer willkommen. Wir waren mit drei Erwachsenen und haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt.

Beautiful, comfortable place to re-set and recharge.
Our hosts provided a ready-made canvas for relaxing and rejuvenating. Casa Sophia is an impeccably well-equipped place with lovely attention to detail and where everything from the books to beach equipment has been considered. The jewel of a terrace has a view like no other across the bay. Our 'Welcome pack' of food and wine was such a kind and generous addition. It is a sturdy solid 'home' steeped in history. It's decorated beautifully and is comfortable enough to spend all your time there if you felt like it. The handwritten information pack our hosts provided was invaluable and came out of experience rather than hearsay. They were there when needed and answered all of our daft questions! It is a perfect base for exploring mountains or coast in a stunning part of Greece that would shine anytime of the year.
