Description The Eternal Blue: Lefkada

Overlooking an assembly of islands in the Ionian Sea, this breezy villa has several balconies and a private pool boasting panoramic views across Nydri. Spanning three stories, it won't be suitable for those with limited mobility, and the interiors are minimalistic and dated in some places. That said, it's relatively roomy and the sun-kissed outdoor spaces are perfect for socialising – the veranda makes a great spot for family barbecues. As it's located high in the mountains, you'll definitely need a car – although the beach and centre of Nydri are just over 1 kilometre away, where you can hop on a boat to visit the surrounding islands.

Home truths:
*The dated interiors aren't quite up to Plum's usual standards – we let this into our collection on account of the fantastic views and proximity to Nydri
*While the kitchen isn't photographed, we expect the style and quality to be consistent with the rest of the home
*This home is spread across three levels, with no internal lift – it may not be suitable for those with limited mobility
*There are desks here if you plan to work from home
*Your host provides a welcome basket
*Weekly linen changes are included
*The swimming pool isn't fenced, so children will need to be supervised at all times
*Due to the location of this home, we recommend hiring a car to get the most out of your stay – there's free parking for one car on the driveway
