Follow the cobblestone path flanked by jasmine and lavender to arrive at this inviting villa overlooking the Ionian Sea, surrounded by wild marquis and olive groves. Inside, expect white-washed wood ceilings, natural textures and a soothing neutral colour scheme. A wall of glass opens onto a sprawling terrace that’s geared up for breakfasts in the morning and cocktails at twilight. Spend afternoons dipping in and out of the pool or whiling away the hours on a lounger beneath a palapa parasol.
Later on, if you fancy a change of scenery, take the fifteen-minute drive into Lefkada Town for a slap-up dinner in an old-school taverna and a history lesson at the Archaeological Museum. And when the day draws to a close, nip over to Tsoukalades Beach, reached in ten minutes by car, to watch the sunset melt into the turquoise water.
