With its traditional interiors and modern trimmings, this hillside villa on Lefkada’s east coast is a place to switch off and embrace the go-slow way of life. After a blissful slumber in the fuss-free bedrooms, sit down to a light breakfast on the shaded terrace before spending the morning lounging by the pool and hot tub. Should you want to steal a moment for yourself, slink off to the swing seat and get lost in a good book. Come together for a spot of lunch in the open-plan kitchen diner or jump in the car and take the short five-minute drive into the heart of Nydri for its authentic tavernas. Take it easy with a gentle stroll along the promenade or lie back and soak up the golden sunshine on Perigiali Beach. If you’re feeling adventurous, however, explore the Dimosari Waterfalls, just 1.8 kilometres away. And when it’s time to call it a day, return home for a snifter of Ouzo on the balcony as dusk descends on the indigo Ionian Sea.
