Set in the rural village of Lakithra overlooking the south coast of Kefalonia, Villa Frosso is an Ionian islands idyll. Boasting three storeys, this spacious terracotta-hued villa is ideal for two families or multiple generations looking for a comfortable and stylish home-away-from-home.

Indoors, the décor of the open-plan living room, dining room and kitchen is a mix of contemporary whitewashed walls and rustic terracotta tiles, which add a feeling of warm elegance to the interior. Having undergone renovations, this enviable abode’s four ensuite bedrooms are now on multiple levels thanks to the new lower garden-level suite, and all bedrooms boast French doors allowing in abundant Greek sunlight while granting access to either a spacious balcony or patio area. The best views are from these upper floor balconies and the living room terrace, where you can impress your loved ones with a barbecue as they drink in the spectacular sea views.

Days are best spent lounging in the peaceful gardens framed by the region’s signature lemon trees, where guests can choose from multiple seating areas to relax, or cool down in the large swimming pool. The villa is also a great base for exploring the popular village of Lakithra just a five-minute walk away, home to traditional churches, delicious tavernas, a village bakery and a renowned patisserie. Some of the best beaches are within a few miles and if you’re after a change of scenery, hire a car and discover Kefalonia’s capital Argostoli, just a ten-minute drive away.
