Super Deluxe
- The Old Bakery - Nissaki -
Description ...
'The Old Bakery' is a beautiful 4 Bedroomed Country House (with an additional detached Guest Cottage by the pool) and as the name implies was the bakery which served the pretty hamlet of Katavolos for many years.
Set in the Olive Groves overlooking Nissaki it has been restored and converted into a stunning home for it's British owner. The house is a combination of old and new, from it's flagged floors, 1m thick walls & low ceilings to the bright & airy additional section of the house constructed some years later including it's brand new state of the Art shower room with dual shower. The flagged floors give a cool feel to the house and the views from the pretty windows look like a painting and are simply stunning.
During the hotter months, afternoons can be spent in the shade of the covered veranda which spans the rear of the house. From here you can also spend your evenings eating from the huge heavy wooden table or sit relaxing on the wicker sofa's and if you're a TV buff, there's a pull down projector screen where you can watch all your favourite TV programmes.
If sun and swimming is your forte, you will be blown away by the sheer beauty of the pool area below the house. The large 10m x 5m swimming pool is surrounded by flagged patios and an abundance of tropical foliage. The whole area is completely private and enjoys spectacular views down the valley to the azure sea below.
There are quality wicker Sun loungers under the covered pergola providing welcome shade from the heat of the afternoon.
By the pool is the Guest Cottage Suite (Supplement payable). A little bit of 'bling' awaits you if you require this additional accommodation with stylish silver antique style furniture and a freestanding handmade copper bath in the corner of the bedroom where you can sip champagne and enjoy the view!
Sleepy hamlet
This quiet place on the northeast coast of Corfu is laid out around a trio of coves, with sweeping views over to Albania. Nissaki comes with a clutch of shops and restaurants, and spreads up into the pine-covered foothills of Mount Pantokrator, Corfu’s highest peak. You’ll find some premium hiking trails if you can drag yourself away from the village’s old-world charm and relaxed beach.
A secluded beach
The narrow, horseshoe-shaped main beach is made up of white pebbles shelving gently into clear waters. You’ll always find a spot here, even at the busiest times, and there are plenty of sunloungers and parasols to rent. If you’re feeling adventurous you can snorkel around the nearby coves, or hire a boat to explore them.
Jaw-dropping walks
Behind the village, there are paths leading through the cypress-covered sides of Mount Pandokator – you could pack a picnic and wander off for the day. The 220-kilometre-long Corfu Trail, which winds around the island, passes through the valley behind Nissaki – you’ll get a stunning sea view if you head out along the steep coastal path towards the rocky coves of Katavolos.
Days out
For around 90 euros a day you can hire a speedboat and glide around the coastline. A popular destination is Agni, where there’s a pretty, pebbly bay backed by a trio of family-run tavernas. Or you can drive to Corfu Town in about 40 minutes. The island capital wears its Venetian architecture well, though there’s a distinctly Parisienne look to The Liston, an arcade of elegant cafés.

Nissaki is one, if not the most poplular areas on the whole of Corfu for villa holidays. Nissaki spreads itself along a three kilometre stretch of stunning coastline, encompassing numerous bays and small mountain hamlets. The harbour is the focal point of the area, with a selection of traditional tavernas located around the pretty harbour and immaculate pebbly beach. Here you will find the clearest water, a haven for snorkling. Miltos Restaurant is the built on the edge of the rocky outcrop overlooking the sea and the beach down by the harbour. It's the largest most popular taverna down in Nissaki where Agatha & Lakis and their family before them have been serving delicious home cooked food since 1955. Located on the coastal road you will find the well stocked Aphrodite Supermarket, a bakery, ATM machine and a little further along the road a small selection of tavernas. On the coastal road between Nissaki & the popular resort of Barbati, is the very popular waterfront restaurant 'Glyfa Taverna' Built on the rocks that lead down to the sea, the restaurant is on three levels with views across the sea towards Corfu Town. Anthoula does all the cooking and the staff here are extremely friendly. Lunch is served daily from 12 noon and dinner until 11pm. There are also sunbeds here for free.
