Villa Corfu'
Corfu, Greece
Nestled amongst ancient olive trees on Corfu’s dramatic west coast, The Villa is a spectacular, sea front residence newly available for rental. The estate is fully staffed with golf buggies provided to travel between the various areas.
22 Sleeps - 11 Bedrooms - 11 Bathrooms (10 en-suite)
Location
Set slightly higher up, behind the main house, are three separate timber bungalows, each with a king sized bed and en-suite bathroom. Another path leads from Villa to a striking wooden treehouse; the perfect setting for a small family or teenagers.
Crafted around the trees, with large wooden terraces and floor to ceiling glass doors, this is a characterful and very private hideaway in the southerly part of the estate.
Further pathways wind through the wooded, shady grounds to The Beach House, a completely self-contained romantic hideaway for two. Situated just above the beach, complete with its own music system and a large private balcony, there are wonderful views out to the Ionian Sea. Here couples can enjoy a high level of privacy and the luxury of being lulled to sleep by the sounds of the sea.
The beach itself, with a private pontoon, sun deck and water’s edge beach bar, is accessible by your private golf buggy. From here you can explore the coastline by kayaks, paddle boards or the estate’s own private yacht, or simply relax and sunbathe on the comfortable loungers.
Amenities
Staff & Service
Two chefs, one Greek and one international, oversee the kitchen offering an array of local and international dishes, with fresh fish delivered daily.
Meals can be served on one of three dining terraces with the team on hand to prepare cocktails and serve wine from the extensive estate cellar.
Pool & Outdoor Space
The estate is spread across an impressive 120,000 square metres of seafront land, connected by hidden pathways and golf buggies, with tall trees providing natural shade.
There are two swimming pools at the property, one in Villa (12m x 6m) and another by the Bungalows and playground.
Living Area
In addition to the spectacular open plan living room at the main villa, there is a library, playroom and two kitchens - one on the ground floor and a service kitchen on the lower level.
Each annex has its own living area and kitchen which will be stocked with drinks, tea, coffee and fruit.
Amenities
Guests at the estate have an array of facilities at their disposal. You can enjoy a knock up on the private tennis court nearby, a game of petanque on the terrain or table football on the main terrace. A personal trainer and yoga teacher can be hired to make full use of the gym and yoga studio.
The Villa
Twenty-two guests can be accommodated across six timber houses with 11 bedrooms between them. Careful planning and consideration for the natural landscape has gone into the design of the estate in order to maximize comfort, privacy and wellness.
Materials and planting styles have been chosen to mirror the stunning surroundings, whilst solar power and recycling enhance the eco credentials.
The use of natural wood for the buildings, coupled with the terraced landscaped gardens, gives a sense of understated luxury and total seclusion within your own private oasis. Outstanding sea views extend along the striking west coast and over rock to the south, with glorious sunsets as evening falls.
Central to the estate is the main house, with spacious interiors, contemporary furnishings, large comfortable beds and en-suite bathrooms. Clean lines and accents of bold colour in the open plan living area, main kitchen and home cinema evoke subtle sophistication.
A large timber deck unites the interior and exterior living spaces with a variety of enticing seating options, a well-stocked library of books and small bar area.
The focal point, at the heart of the decked area, is the inviting infinity pool seamlessly connecting to views of the horizon beyond.
