The good news for the Greek taxman and for me is that what is known as the Greek Hovel is now almost fully let out thus summer. I shall be there, in the Mani region made famous by Paddy Leigh Fermor, with my family for two and a half weeks but for the rest of the summer we let it out, generating taxes for the Greek government and income for me to maintain the house and pool. As of now there are just a couple of weeks in June and a few more in September unbooked.

Having restored a hovel which will be 100 years old next year into a quite amazing eco palace I’d want to live there all year round. But my young wife has a career in Airstrip One and so wer must all stay here. And so when we are not in the Mani peninsular in Sourthern Greece, the eco palace is now avaiallable to rent. The pool season is May 1 to October 31 and the nearest airport (Kalamata) is open for direct flights from the UK April to the end of October. It is less than an hour away. If you like crowds and noise this is not for you.
