These dinky apartments, with full kitchenettes, are just the ticket if you're looking for a true village experience in picturesque Lefkara. There are just five apartments, two of which boast ample space for families. Full of rustic charm inside, they open out onto a cute stone interior courtyard that’s great for relaxing after a day of exploring.
