The park , the beach, day trips
The St Theodore Beach Park is a very attractive forested area next to the sea and is one of the most popular beaches in the Athens area. The park has nice walkways for long walks or bicycle rides, a play ground for children, tennis and basket ball courts, as well as a couple of little taverns by the water.
The village of St Theodore is a 10-15 minute easy walking distance from the cottage and offers anything and everything needed for an evening out on the town or a comfortable stay at home. There are multiple banks, pharmacies, super markets, eating places, and a couple of tourist shops.
The village has a attractive seashore boardwalk packed with restaurants, taverns and ice cream places a bit of everything for the family to enjoy.
The nearby town of Loutraki offers a delightful ice cream pallor nested in the side of a mountain overlooking the Bay of Corinth, hot mineral baths, and, for the gaming inclined, an excellent casino.
Downtown Athens and the Athens airport are easily and rapidly accessible by car using controlled access highways or by using Greeces new high speed rail system or its modernized inter-city buses only about one hours travel time is needed.
After exploring Athens and seeing its sites, day trips into Corinth, Epidavros, Mycenae, Olympia, Cape Sounion, Marathon, and Delphi are all easily accomplished wihtin a days trip from St Theodore.

Our home is a detached villa of 90 sq meters of living space, with a large fenced in garden.
It has a great room (kitchen, living area with fireplace, and dining area), one bathroom and three bedrooms sleeping six. One bedroom can double as sun room. It also has a nice covered front porch.
All the kitchen appliances are high quality. We renovated out home in 2004 with new kitchen cabinets, electrical appliances, windows, doors, plastered walls, and bathroom. The covered front porch overlooks the pine and olive tree yard where one can barbeque, enjoy the greenery, and where children can safely play.
Parking: Private car parking in the rear of the property for two cars inside the fenced in yard.
