The Detail...

The Windmill, Adamas is a rustic and traditional windmill converted into a charming little holiday home on the Greek island of Milos, in the Cyclades.

Inside the tower with its thick stone walls you'll find a bedroom for two upstairs, with a large double bed, fresh white linen and spectacular views out to sea. Downstairs is a living area with a large sofa and a compact but well-equipped kitchen. The whole building has been thoughtfully converted to retain its historic charm, from the beautiful cone-shaped wooden roof, to the faintly gothic front door.

Outside there's a little terrace, with sun loungers and a BBQ, the perfect spot to sit and take in the views and the sunshine.

The windmill enjoys an excellent location, just a short stroll from the friendly little port town of Adamantas, where you'll find many excellent tavernas and restaurants. This pretty little island has been fairly low on the radar for many years, but the growing number of good places to eat is putting it on the map.

Several nice beaches are also just a short walk away - Papikinou Beach is a few hundreds yards, or Sarakiniko Beach, known for its golden sands, is a mile and a bit. Across the island you'll find a wealth of little towns and villages and lots of places to eat. There's also wonderful swimming to be had in the island's lovely blue waters. The ideal Greek island holiday location.
