Overview
The northeast corner of Corfu is a perfect example of natural harmony, with mountain crags overlooking rolling, olive-clad hills and a series of serene bays and coves, some of them still only accessible by boat.
Villa Kessar is located on one of these hills, just 2 kms from the delightful little harbour resort of St Stephanos and 3 kms from Avlaki, with its great crescent of white pebble beach and its excellent sailing centre.
The villa occupies an exceptionally private location, set amidst pretty gardens planted with Mediterranean shrubs, and with enchanting glimpses of the sea and the coastlines of both Corfu and Albania.

Layout
The bungalow-style accommodation is all on one floor, making this a villa very suitable for people with mobility problems. All rooms open on to terraces that overlook the gardens and the olive groves that surround the property, and there are several pleasant areas in which to enjoy an outdoor meal or just sit and read or relish the peace. A few steps lead up to the large swimming pool that enjoys uninterrupted views all round and has a separate children's pool beside it. It is no great distance to the nearest beaches, or to the resort of St Stephanos with its shops and tavernas, however car hire is recommended.
Just one step leads up from the parking area and front garden into the house, which has recently been completely renovated. Simply furnished, but bright and attractive, the rooms all open on to terraces, and the bedrooms all have small private patios of their own The front door opens into the living room, which has a very practical kitchen area along one wall, and a pleasant breakfast or dining area adjoining.
