Mimosa

Introduction

A popular little family villa in Corfu, set in gardens of lawns and trees, this unpretentious and pretty house is a short stroll from the beach and tavernas, and close to a choice of resorts.

Mimosa

The north-eastern corner of Corfu is renowned for its ribbon of neighbouring bays and beaches, each with its own character and all hemmed by coastal hills. This little villa is within easy reach of the best of them, set in the unspoilt countryside of Coyevinas and moments away from its pebble shore. Within a ten minute stroll, there are tennis courts and beachfront tavernas in Avlaki. Twenty minutes away, Kassiopi adds shops, restaurants, bars and an up-tempo nightlife. And a very short drive brings the beautiful harbour of St Stephano into view.

Simply styled for comfort, the villa has two air-conditioned bedrooms and a combined living/dining room, and lends itself to outdoor living with a pretty veranda and an eight metre swimming pool. Furnished for lounging and al fresco dining, the poolside terrace is also home to a built-in barbecue. Usually fairly undisturbed, in July there is a church-run summer school nearby and the children can be heard enjoying themselves, often until quite late in the evening.
