Patrick Leigh Fermor House Mani

The Patrick Leigh Fermor House in Kardamyli, Mani, offers a unique stay in a historic property managed by Aria Hotels. This villa, bequeathed to the Benaki Museum by Sir Patrick and Joan Leigh Fermor, serves as a retreat for scholars and is available for public rental three months a year. Set within a Mediterranean garden of cypress and olive trees, fragrant shrubs, and wild flowers that slope toward the sea, the estate includes three stone buildings: the Main House with three suites, the writer's studio converted into the Traditional House, and the adjacent Guest House. The property preserves the legacy of Patrick Leigh Fermor, a renowned travel writer and war hero who cherished Greece, making it a destination for those seeking inspiration and tranquility. Located in Kardamyli, Southeast Peloponnese, it is 38 kilometers from Kalamata city and 49 kilometers from Kalamata Airport, with a drive of about 3.5 hours from major hubs. Guests can enjoy proximity to the beach, mountain views, and access to local attractions, all while experiencing authentic Greek hospitality in a restored historic setting.
