Sweet Trip: Paros

With its fragrant gardens and knockout Aegean Sea views, this villa on the northeast coast of Paros encourages its guests to go slow in the sunshine. After a well-deserved lie-in, begin your morning on the terrace. Savour a traditional Greek breakfast before plunging into the private pool or recline on the day bed with a glass of something chilled in hand.

Snack on plump olives in a shady spot then slip on your sandals and explore your surroundings. Stroll over to nearby Damuli Beach or jump in the car and head to Naousa, a fishing village famous for its whitewashed buildings, sprays of magenta bougainvillaea and tangle of cobblestone alleyways. Check out the upscale boutiques and chic bars until you’ve worked up an appetite – that’s when we recommend heading home for a barbecued feast as the sun starts to set.
