In an enviable location on Corfu’s northeast coast, this villa combines unfettered views of the Ionian Sea with laid-back interiors, creating a relaxing place that’s a pleasure to spend time in. Perhaps you’ll start your mornings with breakfast on the balcony before swimming leisurely laps in the private pool. Or maybe you’ll treat yourself to an extra-long lie-in then come together for brunch on the shaded terrace. After a round of lively table football in the games room, enjoy a quiet moment with a good book in the living space – we loved the use of natural textures and neutral earthy tones. When you’re ready to explore, you’ll find Pipitos Beach a car ride away. If you’re feeling adventurous, hire a boat and explore the coastline or take the 37-kilometre drive to Corfu Town for its pastel-coloured Venetian architecture, 15th-century Old Fortress and fantastic selection of restaurants.
