Perched on the cliffs of Kefalonia, this traditional stone house is subject to some of the most beautiful views of the Ionian sea. And with stone steps leading down to a coastal path and a beach around 100m from your door, you can see why this villa caught our eye. Though keeping with tradition might mean that some of the decor feels a little dated – something that might not appeal to everyone – the terrace with a private pool, wood-fired oven, old well, and telescope puts most of the focus outside. Plus, there's an additional guest house with a kitchenette and living room that's perfect for guests who need extra privacy.

Home truths
The swimming pool isn't fenced. If you're bringing little ones, they'll need to be supervised at all times.
As there are stairs to climb here, it might not be suitable for those with reduced mobility.
The traditional decor here might not be to everyone's taste. It feels a little dated in parts.
If you're travelling with little ones, your host can provide a cot and high chair for free. You'll need to request them in advance.
One of the bedrooms can be found in the guesthouse. It would be ideal for guests who need a little more privacy.

Local guide
About Agios Nikolaos
Tucked away on the Northern coast of Zakynthos, Agios Nikolaos takes its name from the dainty chapel situated above its beach. Popular for its year-round pleasant climate, this tiny village goes into hibernation during wintertime, while being an important harbour during the summer season with daily ferries running to Pessada on Kephalonia. Another much-loved activity by visitors is to take the three-hour round boat trip to the nearby Blue Caves...
