Bolovinos House

This three-bedroom family villa is currently being refreshed for 2020, and has fantastic views overlooking the pretty fishing bay of St Stephano. It’s just a short stroll to the shops and restaurants in the village – the tavernas here are loved for their fresh catches and grilled meats – or there’s a small beach you can walk to at the end of the bay. To see more of the gorgeous coastline, rent out a boat from St Stephano and spend the day meandering past Corfu’s charming coastal treats.

The villa has an eye-catching red façade, and there’s a lovely round terrace on the first floor which adds to the villa’s charm. A stone-clad pool terrace surrounds a good-sized private swimming pool – with sun loungers and a built-in barbecue area, this is a great spot to just sit and admire the fishing boats and bay views. The ground floor mainly consists of a large open plan living, dining and kitchen room, alongside a twin bed that has French doors opening out to the pool terrace. Upstairs, there are two further bedrooms – another twin bedroom with an en suite shower room, and a master double bedroom with a bathroom en suite. Both rooms on the first floor open out to a furnished balcony that offers comfortable lounge seating and great views. The villa is currently being redecorated, so will have new furniture and soft finishings in 2020. Watersports and tavernas can be found in Avlaki, just 3.4km away – or you can drive 6km to explore the shops and restaurants in Kassiopi.
