Epidavros is our home in this hidden corner of paradise, just ninety minutes’ drive from Athens - a place where how you spend your time is more important than how you spend your money, because life itself is rich here, rich with history, culture and the smells of local cuisine. Please consider joining us for either a relaxing break or to cycle in the haven that is the Peloponnese, a place where yo
u can enjoy the very best that Greece has to offer. They built the classical world’s first and most celebrated health and wellbeing sanctuary here in Epidavros, 2,600 years ago, along with the world-renowned and still used, 20,000 seat amphitheatre! Being in Greece uniquely enables us to provide dream breaks for both cyclists and non-cyclists together. Each week contains a few day trips for all (by bike or car), so everyone meets up for lunch and an afternoon either island-hopping onto Hydra or Spetses, wine tasting, visiting amphitheatres, ancient cities or hidden coves, before either cycling or driving back to celebrate the end of each day together, with an abundance of local food and wine. On alternate days, cyclists are taken off the hands of everyone else, to enjoy loop rides back to Epidavros, and leave the quietly smug ones to relax over late breakfast, a swim, chill-out time around the pool or to read, walk or even exercise, before enjoying a good coffee or even an early drink at the 24-hour beach bar. Having cycled around the world, competed for GB and broken cycling records, Chris looks after our cycling guests, making sure they ride only the best roads and climbs and sharing advice and experience when requested, but being from a Greek family, Helen is in charge of hospitality, finding the very best places to swim, eat and relax! We have a choice of accommodation to suit all tastes, from beachfront camping to 4-star luxury and you can even book your break to tie-in with a concert in Athens, a local sporting event you can compete in or a cultural event at the Amphitheatre. Whether you want to ride or relax (or both), we will personalise every aspect of your break so you get to enjoy your favourite way to exercise or unwind, with amazing scenery and weather, but also have plenty of time to relax on your own, or with others, and leave this little corner of paradise, refreshed, and inspired by a week, where just life itself feels rich. Check out our Cycle rides and Relaxing activities and book your break away with us soon! We really look forward to spending time with you here. Helen & Chris.
“The road to Epidavros is like the road to creation. In the stillness, in the great peace that came over me, I heard the heartbeat of the world.” American playwright Henry Miller
