Rou, A Village Looking Down on Corfu.

Rou is a village high up the side of Pantokratora Mountain. The homes there were built over 100 years ago from the natural material available in the area, Stone. The walls are at least half a meter thick which serve as a natural insulater making summers cool and winters warm and dry. To built such a home today would cost a small fortune.

The arched doorway, so characteristic of Corfu's architecture is well demonstrated here in Rou. This is an entrance to the 'katoi' (storage and stable) of one of the homes on our books. Animals in the past were kept in the lower 'katoi' as a source of natural heat in the winter, now they make beautiful family rooms/living rooms for those fortunate enough to own one.

This is an example of what Rou has to offer! This home comes with a spacious garden and its own well for drinking water. Once the house is remodeled you will have a unique home.
