Schoolmistress with the Golden Eyes

Lesvos


With a name that refers to the mysterious protagonist from a book by Stratis Myrivilis, this pension has a surprisingly hipster lumberjack owner, who will readily explain that the author actually lived at these premises. Clean and simple, the rooms come with breathtaking views of St Panteleimonas Church and the bay.

Look out for a signposted gate in Kastro (Castle) St, above the church and next to a grocery shop. Carrying heavy luggage up the hill can be a challenge.
