The simple pleasures of Amorgos - a lamb grazing

http://youtu.be/3ApIWCDE238

A lamb grazing in Amorgos, near Katapola - enjoying the lush winter greenery.  Being in Amorgos in winter gives you the chance to savour the simpler pleasures of life.  But, thinking of lamb, 2savour" was perhaps not the best word to use!

Are you looking for a nice place to stay in Katapola (Amorgos)?

I've been visiting Katapola for over 20 years, and always stay at Dimitri's P(a)lace, which is on the lane leading to Minoa, but very close to the centre of Katapola. The rooms are a short walk from the sea, shops and tavernas, yet in the countryside.
At Dimitri's P(a)lace you'll find:
  • comfortable rooms, with your own or shared kitchen areas
  • a lovely garden setting, with olive trees, grape vines, lemon trees and many more plants.
 
Ring Dimitri for more information (0030 22850 71309)

This photo shows the position of Dimitri's in red.  You walk round the bay from the harbour towards the large church with three blue domes (one large, two small) in the centre of the bay.  Take the stone paved road that leads from the road around the bay towards the church.  Walk past the school.  You reach a small (but very well-stocked!) grocery shop.  Here a path straight ahead leads to the church.  To reach Dimitri's take the road on the right.


After walking for about one minute, you will see the gateway leading to Dimitri's P(a)lace.




The photos below show the gardens, and views from the garden and rooms.
