A charming villa set in beautiful gardens with sea & mountain views

The Lodge is a pretty villa in a quiet residential area, not overlooked, set in beautiful gardens with its own private swimming pool (4x8m), in the foothills above Paphos and Coral Bay. WIFI and air-conditioning are included. It has two bedrooms, one with ensuite bathroom. (2 bathrooms in total) There are beamed cathedral ceilings throughout the property making it feel light and spacious. Outside is a large shaded terrace overlooking the pool and a view of the sea. There is also an additional outdoor kitchen area with built-in barbeque and additional seating area.
The centre of Tala is a 10/15 minute walk away where you will find a small selection of traditional tavernas, bars, restaurants and small shops.

On your day of departure, if your flight is later in the day, it may be possible for you to stay at The Lodge later than the normal check out time but this needs to be agreed beforehand.
Installed for your safety are smoke alarm/detector and carbon-monoxide alarm. There is also a burglar alarm installed which is optional.
If you just want to have a chat about what Paphos is like, if you're concerned about anything, or there is any information I have forgotten to add, please feel free to give me a call or email and I'll be more than happy to help.

If you would like to rent The Lodge for more than three weeks then we would be very happy to discuss a reduction in rental fees.

Perfect,

After 20 years holidaying in Cyprus, staying in new villas and apartments,I thought this one was the best so far, just perfect .The lodge was very clean and had everything we needed. The pool was fabulous, the beds very comfortable, the terraces and gardens were beautiful. It was so peaceful but close to restaurants and amenities.

Our stay was amazing! The villa was fantastic, in a quiet location and so beautiful. It was spotlessly clean and had everything you could need. The outside space was amazing with a lovely private swimming pool and great barbecue area, and the views were stunning. We hired a car, the villa is only about a 20 minute drive from Paphos airport, and within walking distance to Tala and all the lovely restaurants. Our host Debbie was lovely, with great communication and so helpful, as was Melanie who met us at the Villa to show us around and explain a few things.All in all we can not fault it and highly recommend a stay here.We will definitely been returning soon.Thank you Debbie.

Perfect bliss!

Lovely spacious villa with everything provided. Great view and a splendid pool which was a godsend in the heat. Very chilled country area. Kids had a great time too and Tala’s restaurants were fabulous. Not far from Paphos and Coral Bay so very well situated. All in all…fantastic.

The Lodge

Everything was as described, the beds were extremely comfortable and the pool was more than we expected. The weather was very hot, averaged 38 degrees so walking about was kept to a minimum. Melanie and Paul were so helpful. It was one of the best villas we have stayed in

We have had a wonderful stay at The Lodge, really comfortable little villa, all mod cons you would find at home, just ideal. Weather was great, people very friendly, lovely restaurants in the village and further afield in Paphos. Lovely quiet neighbourhood and have just had the most relaxing time. Paul who met us at the villa on arrival was charming and gave us some handy tips re supermarkets, beaches etc. A wonderful holiday had by all!

Escape in the hills

I can say with confidence that this is one of the best stays I have had using any holiday home service. The home is quiet and tucked away in the hills of Tala. Myself, and my in-laws were there for a wedding in Paphos, and it was a perfect way to escape all the noise and have some quiet time for ourselves. The house is well appointed, and has all the amenities you could want. The check in process was very simple, and we really appreciate Melanie staying up late to let us in when our flight arrived later than expected. The whole stay was lovely. Highly recommend.

The Lodge is a gorgeous villa, with a stunning garden and pool. What is exceptional about the villa is the communication from Debbie, she replies within minutes and the attention to detail. There are condiments available, who wants to spend money on salt and pepper, and everything you would need in a kitchen. You will definitely need a car though if you want to travel to Pathos and Coral Bay. We did manage to find one taxi company to take us to Pathos for the evening but it was expensive. We were prepared for this and had a great evening. The village square is in walking distance if you do want to stay local. Highly recommend Mario’s bar, can’t believe how cheap the drinks are! They also do snacks between 11am and 2pm which are really good. The staff in there are amazing! We would also highly recommend Mass SouraTavern. Why was this restaurant empty? The food and staff were amazing. Highly recommend this restaurant, particularly the Meze and the steak. A wonderful villa and Holiday. Thank you Debbie.

Very nice house in good area

We had a good holiday in the Lodge. The house, garden and pool are all well maintained. You will find what is shown in the ad. We were disappointed in the cleanliness of the house when we arrived, though. The toilets, bathroom and kitchenware were not clean. Good quiet location close to the sea and shops.

Roundabout the house it is very quiet , no big streets mostly nature . In the house you find everything you need and you can live like at home . we have been there the last week in march and the nights have been cold aboet 10 degrees . We could heat with the aircondition , and two electric ovens fastly . After coming from our daily tours , we don ´t want to leave the house and could relax there .

home from home in paradise

Wow what can I say, the lodge is beautiful well positioned to explore the Island and although a car is not essential (only a short walk to Tala square) I would recommend it . The garden and pool area is spectacular and so private the villa as everything you require and more, but the highlight for us was meeting Vic and Hazel, what a wonderful couple they could not do enough for you, they are so kind and thoughtful and Andy's talks with Vic made his holiday ,what a lovely and interesting man .Thank you so much Deborah for helping everything to go without a hitch .paradise in Cyprus.

Beautiful little hideaway

We have just returned home after having a wonderfully relaxing week at this property. This villa is charming, its set in a beautiful rural area, and is only minutes from Tala square which was a real gem to find being traditional and rustic offering fabulous food and local wine. The villa itself is spacious and has every possible thing you could need - a real home from home. We enjoyed eating and drinking on the terrace overlooking the pool with sights of the sea and glorious sunset in the distance, with only the noise of cicadas in the background . Upon arrival we were met by the owners, who are warm, friendly and happy to assist. Overall - we have had a glorious week and would recommend this place to all.

Villa in Tala

We had 2 weeks in the villa which was kitted out with everything we needed, one thing I would mention is the outsideTable and chairs were a bit dated and there were always ants all over it no matter if we washed it or not so was unsuitable for us plus we never liked the overgrown tree/creeper plant that was over the top of the pergola, as I say this it is a personal opinion and not a complaint, loved the pool and the location was walkable to Tala but needed a car to get to Coral bay and Paphos, Deborah the owner had great communication with us and was really helpfull with instructions, all in all a great place to stay

A wonderful quiet place

We had a great time in The Lodge. Since it was a very hot week, the pool was a perfect way to find some refreshment and relaxation. The sleeping roomes were air conditioned which also gave us some relief from the heat. The surrounding was perfectly quiet, exactly what we were looking for (no mass tourism, no party sounds). The garden was very lovely, the figs tasty :-) Paul was very nice and helpful. Even though we had landed pretty late in Lanarca and reached The Lodge only at 11 p.m., he still welcomed as very warm-heartedly. All together, we had a wonderful time on the beautiful island of Cyprus and The Lodge was a big factor for that. We definitely recommend the place!

Our second stay at The Lodge

This was our second stay at The Lodge in Tala, having had such a wonderful time previously. We were pleasantly surprised to discover that Deborah has made some improvements to the property, including brand new air conditioning. The Lodge is the perfect villa for what we are looking for in a holiday. It's in a beautiful quiet location, not at all over-looked and is just a short drive, or slightly longer walk to the gorgeous village square, which has a few places to get a bite to eat or a drink. The Lodge is well maintained and has all the amenities you need. A real home from home. Deborah is a wonderful host. She always replies to messages promptly and does all she can to make your stay as enjoyable as possible.

Wonderfully peaceful stay

We stayed at this property for a week whilst visiting relatives in the area. The house itself is set away from other properties but within a 10 minute walk of bars and restaurants. The pool area and veranda are beautiful with views of the sea, the only sound we heard when sitting out here was the birds, incredible relaxing. The house itself is more a home than a rental, some may call it slightly old fashioned , but we found it really comfortable and very well equipped with everything you could possibly need , including pool toys and loads of loo roll! The super king bed was a great feature, really unusual in a rental and very comfortable The property managers met us on arrival and showed us around which was a nice touch. Probably one if the best holiday lets that we have stayed in and if relaxation and peace and quiet are what you are looking for this is definitely it!

Beautiful property in a gorgeous location

We have been visiting Tala for many years and have stayed in a wide variety of accommodation. I can honestly say that The Lodge is, without doubt, the cleanest, best kept & most beautiful property we have ever stayed in. So much so that we booked a return visit for next year whilst we were there! Deborah is a wonderful host. Always prompt to reply to emails and genuinely does all she can to make your stay easy and relaxed. The villa itself is well equipped with quality appliances and has everything you could possibly need for your stay. The pool is beautiful and serviced twice a week and the garden is a joy. The location is quiet, secluded, not overlooked at all and has a beautiful view out to the ocean. Vic, Deborah ‘s father, only lives a few doors away and is a wonderful host who will meet you on arrival and is always on hand should you need anything. This villa, combined with Deborah and Vic’s desire to make it the perfect stay really makes this property a special find and I couldn’t recommend it highly enough.
