Palati tou Xylari Information and Description

The mansion was declared preserved by the Cyprus Department of Antiquities and has been since then restored. It consists of two large houses divided always according to its original layout into four apartments: two studios and two single bedroom apartments. All apartments are fully furnished with their own bathroom and kitchenette (including stove, refrigerator, cooking ware etc), whilst they are all centrally heated during winter. In addition, the complex offers laundry facilities (washing and dryer machin...(see more)e) and telephone. Each apartment can accommodate up to four persons since there are two single beds and a sofa that becomes a double bed. Provisions are also made, and only in this case, for families of five or with small children. The mansion has a privileged location in the heart of the village on the top of a hill opened up to a spectacular view of the village and the mountain of Panayia. All apartments open to a large stone-paved yard whilst the two upper ones have spacious balconies. THE VILLAGE The village of Panayia on the outskirts of Paphos forest, lays at an altitude of 880m above sea level. It is a very beautiful mountainous resort surrounded by vineyards, only 35 minutes drive from the sandy beaches and the city of Paphos. It is an ideal place for people who love nature, but also for those who are fond of Cyprus history, culture, and tradition. The ideal geographical position of the village offers to its visitors a variety of places to go and a numerous of things to do. In the village, someone can visit the house of Archbishop Makarios, the first president of the Cyprus Republic, and the cultural centre dedicated to him. Of great significance is also an old chapel of 13th-14th century built in honour of Virgin Mary (Panayia tis Eleousis). For those who love nature, there are natural trails in the region where one can enjoy unique views of the region. Panayia can also be used as a starting point for excursions that cover Paphos district with its significant archaeological and other monuments, and stretch until Limassol and Troodos. It is also worth mentioning that Panayia has been in the center of attraction of geologists and people interested in bird watching and in the fauna and flora of the area. Three kilometers outside the village is the Monastery of Panayia of Chrysorroyiatissa, a place not only unique for its religious and historical significance, but also for its museum with its rare Byzantine icons and ecclesiastical items, its architecture, its winery, its beautiful garden and its panoramic views. Five minutes from Chrysorroyiatissa lays another beautiful monastery, Ayia Moni, the oldest monastery in Cyprus. According to the tradition, its chapel was built by Saint Nicholas.
