Unique for its mix of Catholic, Greek Orthodox and Anglican churches - there are concerts and special events in Corfu town - which is transformed into a magical place with all the trees hung with fairy lights. (It’s a 30 minute drive to town.) The house has oil radiators in all the rooms; being a stone house, it easily keeps a comfortable warm temperature. The air con units can also be used as an extra heating source if necessary. There is a large dining room table, ideal for festive dinners - plus plenty of restaurants in town if you prefer not to cook. We are happy to decorate the house with a Christmas tree and fairy lights if you wish. Or simply get away from it all and just enjoy the quietness, cool mountain breezes and breathtaking views from Spartilas. A fully equipped family home (in a central village location)- which in the summer months-with its private plunge pool, patio and deck allows you to relax in a private oasis after the buzz of beach bars and restaurants in Barbati or Ipsos - a short drive down the mountain. 8 minutes to Barbari beach! It is a completely detached, private home with gated parking for 2 cars. The quiet road at the front allows easy access at all times while the property backs onto the lush green slopes of the mountainside; hardly overlooked and quiet. It is a 120 year old traditional stone building which means it stays cool in the summer and warm in the winter. The 2 bedrooms and bathroom are downstairs while the large living room and kitchen are on the upper floor; maximising the stunning views which reach as far as the south of the island. There is air conditioning in both bedrooms and on the top floor. Though often not needed as the 8 windows allow breezes easily to cool the house. There is a small plunge pool (3.6m x 3.6m, 1,2m deep) on the upper terrace. This is accessed from a decked area with sun loungers. There is also a patio with an umbrella and chairs to the side if the pool. A grassy area to the right of the pool provides cool shade, as does another patio area to the right of the house. The garden is laid out in terraces and there are a lot of steps. Spartilas is a traditional village. The house is located in the oldest part and therefore only a 5 minute walk from the centre which has a small bakery, mini market and 2 tiny cafes. There is a larger cafe a further 5 minutes up the road which also serves some simple food in the high season. There are tavernas within a 15 minute drive of the house - both down to the beach or up into the mountains. For those that like hiking, the route to the top of Pantokrator passes through the village. The beaches to the north of the island are a 25 minute drive through beautiful ancient olive groves. Corfu town - which can be seen from the house, is a 40 minute drive. (It is essential to have a car - the village is not on a bus route; and the distance to the beach is too far for walking). ## Property amenities ### Beach - Beach towels ### Pool/Spa - Outdoor pool - Private pool ### Internet - Available in the house: Free WiFi ### Parking and transport - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Electric kettle - Hob - Kitchen island - Microwave - Oven - Paper towels - Refrigerator - Spices - Toaster ### Dining - Dining table ### Bedrooms - 2 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 1 bathroom - Hair dryer - Shampoo - Shower - Soap - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table - Living room - Separate dining area ### Entertainment - Books - DVD player - Smart TV ### Outdoor areas - Balcony - Barbecue grill - Garden - Outdoor furniture ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Comfort - Air conditioning - Heating ### Pets - No pets allowed ### Suitability/Accessibility - If you have requests for specific accessibility needs, please contact the property using the information on the reservation confirmation received after booking. - 16 steps to reach entrance - Area rugs in public areas - Hardwood flooring in public areas - Smooth flooring in public areas - Tile flooring in public areas - Upper floors accessible by stairs only - Well-lit path to entrance - Smoke-free property ### Services and conveniences - Iron/ironing board ### Location highlights - In a rural location - In a village - In the mountains - Near a health/beauty spa - Near a hospital - Near the marina - Near the sea ### Things to do - Water park - Birdwatching nearby - Fishing nearby - Golfing nearby - Hiking/biking trails nearby - Horseback riding nearby - Jet skiing nearby - Kayaking nearby - Motor boating nearby - Mountain biking nearby - Parasailing nearby - Sailing nearby - Scuba diving nearby - Snorkelling nearby - Swimming nearby - Water skiing nearby - Water tubing nearby - Wildlife walks nearby - Windsurfing nearby - Winery tours nearby ### Safety features - No carbon monoxide detector (host has indicated there is no carbon monoxide detector on the property but there are gas appliances;

Die Einrichtung war super detailverliebt. Bei Sorgen und Fragen konnten die Gastgeber immer erreicht werden und waren sehr behilflich. Durch den kleinen Pool waren die Kinder auch immer beschäftigt und wir Eltern konnten uns entspannen. Ein kleiner Bäcker und ein Minimarkt sind fußläufig erreichbar, dadurch war immer frisches Brot, regionales Obst und Gemüse vorhanden. In den kleinen Gassen des Dorfes konnte man einen herrlichen Spaziergang machen und die wundervolle Aussicht genießen. ##### Christina H.
