The house and the village benefit from spectacular views over the surrounding hills to the sea; but the elevated terrace and rocky terrain mean that this location is unsuitable for young children or people with reduced mobility. The street outside used to be the major (donkey) route into the village before the combustion engine, but to get to the front doors these days requires a good 4-wheel drive – anything else and you are advised to park at the bottom of the hill.
- please note - A CAR IS ESSENTIAL.

Vouni is the home of the Cyprus Donkey Sanctuary, but there is a staggering population of plants, animals, birds, reptiles, and insects, which include the local goats and bewildering variety of lizards. Throughout the year the changing seasons are mirrored in the local flora, from the beautiful almond blossoms in the spring, to the autumn colours of the vines.
