About the area

Around a three and a half hour flight from the UK takes you to the Peloponnese region on the south west corner of the Greek mainland.

The Peloponnese has over 1000 miles of stunning coastline, with beautiful beaches and bays to explore while further inland, there are miles of countryside and mountains. It’s also home to fortress towns such as Pylos and Methoni and countless ancient ruins.

Unspoilt with so much natural beauty, the area has become more popular and property prices have seen a huge increase recently, with a three bedroom beach side villa around £350,000.
