You'll find this sun-drenched villa just outside of cosmopolitan Lefkada. As far as locations go, we think it's the best of both worlds – it's tucked away from the hustle and bustle, yet only a five-minute drive from Pefkoulia beach and fifteen from the bars, restaurants and shops in town. Whether swimming, sunbathing or sightseeing is on your to-do list, this is the perfect spot to set off and explore the island. Inside, the living space is filled with light and features furniture hand-built by local craftsmen. Cooking is a breeze in the kitchen, the cosy sofa calls for laid-back movie nights and the bedrooms all have beautiful vistas en-suite bathrooms (the main has a jacuzzi tub). Speaking of, it's hard not to swoon over the sunny terrace, with its magnificent infinity pool, built-in barbecue, wood-fired oven and sensational views of the Ionian Sea. No matter what time of day it is, you'll want to spend every second outside, sipping coffee in the morning light or sharing a bottle of wine at sunset. And, to top it all off, homemade breakfast prepared by the hosts is served on the veranda – sounds like the perfect holiday to us.
