The Garden Princess

The Garden Princess: Epirus

Get up close and personal with the Ionian at this beachfront villa in mainland Greece. The beach, only steps away, features parasols and sunbeds where sun-worshipers can congregate, but you'll also find sun loungers poolside on the private terrace if you'd like more peaceful sunbathing sessions. Surrounded by lush green hills and set on mature gardens, there's plenty of space for kids to be kids whilst adults barbecue or enjoy alfresco drinks. With a location like this, coastal views, and a hot tub and spa, you can see why this one's in our collection. Plus, guests can rent boats here to explore the surrounding coves.

Home truths:
*The swimming pool isn't fenced. If you're bringing little ones, they'll need to be supervised at all times. There's also a path leading down to the beach.
*Though a car isn't essential, you'll find parking here should you choose to hire one.
*Your host can provide a complimentary cot and high chair – this must be requested at the time of booking, and you’ll need to bring your own cot linen.
*The bedroom curtains here don't fully block out the sunlight. If you're hoping to enjoy a lie-in, you might want to pack an eye mask.
*As with most homes in Greece, toilet paper can't be flushed. Please use the sanitary bin provided.
*Though there are ground-floor bedrooms and bathrooms here, you'll still find a few stairs throughout.
