Description

The Platanorema Farm is an exceptional example of an agro-tourism resort that combines a landscape of extraordinary natural beauty with the man-made creations built on it.

On 4 Ha of land, marked by a natural waterside path with a sycamore forest, visitors are able to live, feel and taste an authentic experience of nature that combines mountain and sea (only 5 minutes away)! During the day visitors can watch ducks, turkeys, pheasants, peacocks, wild boar, goats and sheep, horses, and donkeys, but also enjoy outdoor activities like climbing, archery, and flying fox. Near the farm, you can engage in hiking, horse riding and mountain biking on designated routes or on the ones you choose.

In the stone-built restaurant, you will find a feast of flavors and assortment of dishes with pork and veal, vegetables from our garden, local cheeses and the famous wines of Halkidiki and Mount Athos, for a culinary experience that will satisfy even the most demanding. At night visitors can rest in the luxurious stone-built guest houses with rustic furnishings and the warmth of the fireplace, listening from the open window to nature’s forgotten sounds. In that part of Chalkidiki, whose beauty remains untouched, on the way to Mount Athos and 5min from the nearest beach, next to Pyrgadikia, the farm offers you its 4 luxurious stone suites with fireplaces and independent kitchens, an unforgettable stay for the family, as well as for good friends and travelers.

At Platanorema we love and support tradition. Here, you can watch the making of traditional pita, made from homemade pie crust according to a local recipe, in our own wood-oven. Here you have the chance to learn how yogurt, using milk from our farm animals, is made. You can also practice making ceramics with the farm’s pottery-maker, as well as watch experienced bee-keepers collect honey. Don’t forget to taste the Platanorema’s tsipouro, which is distilled right in front of your eyes, moments before you drink it.  

ACTIVITY DESCRIPTION 

Immerse yourself in the captivating process of honey collection as our experienced beekeepers showcase their craft. With your safety in mind, we provide you with specially designed clothing, allowing you to get an up-close look at the remarkable lives of bees.
