Advantages: Great Setting, Close to Airport, First Class Food, Very Clean, Wonderful! Disadvantages: None that I can think of!
For those of you that don?t know I?m at University and one of the perks (along with student debt, economy food and lack of clean housing) is exams! How my mum can ever say she enjoyed them I really don?t know! Now I?ve spent the past 4 hours sat at a desk trying my hardest to concentrate but my brain just isn?t haven?t it and I?d say I?ve spent about 3 of those 4 hours daydreaming and remembering more fun times! So I?m going to tell you all about my heavenly summer holiday last year on the Greek Island of Kos ? just to remind myself how depressed revision actually makes me!
Last summer me and my boyfriend happened to find ourselves outside the First Choice Holiday Hypermarket in our home town ? totally by accident, it just happens to be located opposite our local Pizza Hut restaurant and we decided to have a wonder in. Fast forward ...
Advantages: Always one close by, quick turn out, children are welcome and catered for. Disadvantages: Toilets can be quite disturbing, not all dishes taste as good they are described.

**** Parking and Getting a Table *****
As with most of the Harvester's I have visited, there is usually ample free parking at the rear of the establishment. However on Saturday evenings and Sunday lunch times these places are heaving with customers, so avoid the crowds, go early and if possible ring and reserve a table. The Stag and Hounds is no exception but fortunately ...
Advantages: breeze keeps you cool, you don't notice the intense heat Disadvantages: watch you don't burn, the wind is deceptive: use you sun cream more often. IT IS HOT in KOS
Did I say breeze? Do you know, I didn?t realize how strong the wind would be ? you know, the wind that blows throughout the summer months amongst the islands of the Dodecanese. As I write, I am sat out on the balcony of my apartment on the island of Kos. We have just berthed in the harbor at Kardamena and, today the wind is blowing fierce and strong. Unbelievably, fierce as the wind is, it caresses the skin like velvet ? despite its power! The sky is an intense baby blue, without so much as a hint of a cloud and the temperature is building as the morning progresses. Yesterday was an intense 32o C ? and I have great hopes that the temperatures today will match that with ease.
Yesterday we were moored off a beach near San Antonio. It wasn?t a harbor ? more a deep inlet set amongst volcanic rocks. The inlet?s waters were quite calm ...

Ciao members have rated this review on average: very helpful Review of Kos (Greece)
Since 1982 we have been doing our best to meet our customer needs. Situated by the sea we offer a variety of Greek and International food. Open all day long and situated by the beach. We are situated in the centre of the city and by the sea. As you can see the building in an old italian building built in the beggining of 1900.
