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. The master double bedroom occupies a suite with a foyer and en suite bathroom, and in addition to this there are two twin-bedded rooms and a single bedroom, plus two separate shower rooms. There is a convenient separate laundry-room equipped with washing machine.

The open plan living area is comfortably furnished with a 'cottage' style suite arranged with the fireplace being the focal point. French windows lead out to the sea-facing balcony with tables and chairs for outdoor dining.

Kitchen/Breakfast Room

Bedrooms
The master double bedroom is particularly private, and has French windows opening on to its own terrace with views through the olive groves. There is a useful foyer/dressing room between the bedroom and the en suite bathroom.

Pool
The large swimming pool(8m x 7m) is set a few steps up from the front garden and is most attractive, with flowering shrubs and graceful olive trees all round, together with beautiful open views to the sea and not-so-far distant mountains of Albania. The pool is surrounded by sunny, paved sunbathing areas with sunloungers and umbrellas or olive trees for shade. There is also a children's pool conveniently located to one side.
