Bedroom of Joleni Cottage

Wheelchair accessible Cottage Kefalonia

Surrounded by trees, Joleni Cottage is situated in a peaceful secluded location in the village of Keramies, 10km from the capital Argostoli. Away from the hustle of tourism and yet only a few minutes away from several of Kefalonia’s most beautiful beaches, Joleni Cottage in Kefalonia is set on a 2200m² plot of land in the lush region of Keramies and Spartia. The house is located 200 metres from the street on an unpaved side road and offers tranquillity and privacy. Here you can relax after a long day at the beach or a hike across the island.

Joleni Cottage's garden with accessible terraces

During the renovation in 2018, we converted the 100m² ground-level holiday home to allow wheelchair access for disabled guests. It is step-free throughout the house, the surrounding terraces and the parking area. This is ideal not only for guests with mobility problems but also for families with young children or guests who enjoy the convenience of a barrier-free holiday cottage.

Joleni Cottage living area

Joleni Cottage has two bedrooms, a large bathroom, an additional WC and an open plan kitchen with a dining and living area.

A minimarket with a stock of basic things and a traditional taverna are within walking distance (5-10 minutes) in the village of Keramies. The neighbouring village Spartia is only a walk of 15 minutes away (or a 2-minute drive) where you can find two more minimarkets, two cafes/bars and a restaurant.

Relax on the terrace or rather under the shady oak tree?

Breakfast on the covered terrace? A glass of wine at the end of the day under the old oak tree? Or maybe you would rather watch mount Ainos turning pink at sunset, sitting on the sun terrace? You will find your favourite place.

Sun terrace of Joleni Cottage

At Joleni Cottage you can relax and find tranquillity. There is hardly any car traffic on this side road. Occasionally you can hear goat bells. Sometimes the neighbour’s dog or cat will come by to visit.
