The Pafos Forest includes large number of ecosystems and particularly important biotopes and habitats where important and rare vegetation and animals live and are developed. The unique and most important plant society of the Cyprus Cedrus along with the unique population of the Cyprus “Agrino” (moufflon) gives the area of the Pafos Forest a huge environmental value.

The village Tremithousa or Trimithousa is located about 4 kilometers northeast of Pafos at an altitude of 270 meters above sea level.

It is renowned for the tasty aromatic honey that is produced in the area. Other productions in the area include vines, vegetables, cereals, forage plants, citrus, almond, and walnut trees and more.

Tremithousa connects to the north to the monastery of Agios Neofytos, to the northeast with the village of Tala, and to the east with the main road of Pafos – Polis, within few minutes drive to Minthis Hills Golf.

The village already existed during the Medieval times and during the era of Frank domination.

Tremithousa took its name from the “Tremithia”. Tremithia (Terebinth) is a tree that was found in large quantities in the surrounding area. Thus the name Tremithousa or Trimithousa implies an area that is filled with Terebinth trees. Indeed, in the old times the village was known for its production of “Pafitiki Pissa” (gum of Pafos), which is made out of the resin of the Terebinth tree.

Today there is a thriving residential and tourism in the region of Tremithousa thanks to an excellent micro climate, its magnificent panoramic views to the sea, its traditional village atmosphere, all within short proximity to the sea, Pafos town and Minthis Hills Golf.

Pafilia’s exclusive Tremithousa Chorio development is located in the hillside village of Tremithousa and comprises 10 detached villas and sea view apartments.

The development is ideally located with easy access to the main Pafos to Polis Road. The immediate vicinity has recently attracted a growth of village shops catering for the day-to-day needs of the local residents. Tremithousa Chorio is also only minutes drive from the Pafos International School, Minthis Hills golf course and Pafos town.

The last 3 bedroom apartments are available at a bargain price starting from €210,000 only!
