... Welcome to the Greek island of CORFU GREECE

Corfu’s spectacular north eastern coastline hosts intimate white pebbly coves, glittering turquoise waters and stunning views reaching out over the sea towards Albania. A villa holiday here offers a combination of cosmopolitan and time honoured Greece, from the livelier resorts of Kassiopi and Ipsos to the elegant capital of Corfu town, to outlying villages steeped in Greek tradition. The majority of our villas are dotted along the peaceful mountainside, surrounded by acres of olive groves, orange and lemon trees and famously friendly Greek Island natives. The beaches in Corfu are both pebbly and sandy, and many slope gently into the sea. Its secluded coves and clear blue waters have made the island a particular villa holiday favourite. A wide variety of beaches curve around the Corfu Greece coastline, most equipped with waterside tavernas, beachside shops, and pedaloes and sun loungers for hire.

There are some lovely bays and dramatic cliffs that attract walkers, cyclists and bird-watchers. Sports fanatics will also enjoy the varied watersports available at the main summer holiday resort beaches. Soak up Corfu’s magnificent sunsets on your villa holiday with a walk across the headland and coastal paths. The views here are particularly magical– offering uninterrupted seascapes, and panoramic scenes of untamed hillsides and white sandy bays. Explore Corfu’s shoreline scenery by small boat, and go cove-hopping to one of many peaceful and very pretty bays. You can even jump on horseback for a trek around the wild and rugged countryside with an experienced instructor – an ideal way to enjoy your summer holiday and the surrounding scenery. Bird watching, cycling, paragliding and water skiing are also all available to try on this Greek Island

An island immersed in legendary Greek history, Corfu’s ancient sites have survived through the centuries to remain standing today. Corfu town is a maze of narrow stone-paved streets dominated by two stunning Venetian castles – the Old and New Fortresses. Other architectural attractions on this Greek Island include well-preserved palaces – one famously home to the Greek Royal Family. Monasteries, chapels and old Roman ruins are dotted around the Corfu Greece countryside, while mosaics, sculptures and frescoes have been carefully retained in their original domains for public viewing.
Rich in Mediterranean flavours, traditional Corfu cuisine consists of local ingredients grown or found on this Greek Island. In particular, olives, lemons, tomatoes and freshly caught fish feature strongly in most local dishes.
On your villa holiday, find a waterfront taverna and dine on the terrace overlooking the sea as homemade Greek dishes are lovingly prepared and served to your table. Why not enjoy the tranquillity of your own private holiday villa, and feast on a long lazy lunch of grilled fish and fluffy fresh bread drizzled with just-pressed olive oil.
