Description Goddess on the Hill: Kerkira

Looking directly across the azure waters of the Ionian Channel to the Greek mainland itself, this villa will leave a lasting impression. Making the most of the beautiful vistas, the villa offers several outdoor living areas where you can relax and soak up the surroundings, including a suntrap terrace, a dining terrace and a pool deck, complete with sun loungers. The interiors benefit from a modern design, and all three bedrooms offer direct access to the terrace and garden. If you can peel yourself away from the pool, the sea is just 30 metres away, with a path down to the coast. You'll find plenty of tavernas and bars nearby too, as well as Messonghi's sandy beach just 2.4 kilometres from home.

Home truths:
*Due to the location, you'll need to hire a car to get around. There's private on-site parking.
*The villa is laid over two floors with no internal lift. There's a ground-floor bedroom and bathroom, however.
*The twin bedrooms can be prepared as doubles. You'll need to request this in advance.
*The pool may only be available to use between April and October – please speak to your host for the exact opening and closing dates. The swimming pool isn't fenced and there's a drop of about 1.5m from part of the pool terrace. If you're bringing little ones, they'll need to be supervised at all times.
*Your host provides a high chair for free. You'll need to request this in advance.
