About this property

Watchtower House, Family-Friendly Prime Located Built In 1 Ha. Of Olive Groves

Watchtower house is an ideal holiday resort for the entire family. The villa is situated in an olive grove of 11 ha. It posesses an extra long pool with children section. A quiet beach is 350m away. The views to the sea are astonishing.

This beautiful, spacious villa has been built in 10,000 square metres of olive groves on a gently sloping hillside just above the North East coast.

Watchtower house has taken its name from an old tower situated next to the villa that was used to watch the enemy ships.
The house was made with care and classic taste. Expences weren't spared in the construction and we believe that has all the luxuries one can ask.

The house has three levels. In the ground level is the living room, kitchen and two bedrooms with their in suite bathrooms. In the upper level there are two bedrooms with their en suite batrooms and in the lower ground level is the playroom (mini-gym, pool table, PS3) plus two beds, a bathroom and a laundry room.

Outside, an attractive shaded al fresco dining area is complemented by a fully-equipped outdoor kitchen next to the barbecue all under a shaded pergola. We don’t think you will be able to drag yourselves away from this love spot! The scene is completed by an exceptionally large horizon pool with a small shallow childrens’ section and a further shaded area behind the villa which houses a table tennis. Additional children's play facilities can be found on the grass by the pool. The views along the entire coastline, across to Albania and down to Corfu Town, are simply stunning at all times of the day and can be enjoyed from all the main areas of the house and terraces. The grounds feature paths for exploring and many fruit trees from which you can pick and sample delicious fruit - Quite simply an excellent villa that seems to fulfil most peoples’ expectations and exceed many!
Also last but not least the high mountain summit that can be seen from the back side of the house.

Wonderful Watchtower
Perfect villa, ideally located with excellent views. Beautiful pool, outdoor seating and BBQ area. Dimitri and his wife couldn’t have done more for us, so helpful and kind, they went above and beyond. Beautiful food prepared for us on arrival for lunch and tea. We loved our stay and would thoroughly recommend it.

The dreamiest of places!
We had a wonderful holiday in Corfu and that was 95% thanks to our lovely host and house. The setting in the olives trees and the views on Old Corfu are stunning and we couldn't hope for a more warm welcome. Definitely coming back!

The perfect holiday home
If you think this property looks good in the photos, you will be blown away by it in real life!! Without doubt the most beautiful villa I have stayed in, the pool is huge with the most spectacular views surrounding it. Perfect for all ages with a lovely little kids pool, shallow steps down into the main pool and a deep end for the bigger kids. There are plenty of outdoor areas to enjoy all with comfortable seating. The outdoor kitchen in just incredible and you feel like you are sitting in your own private Greek taverna. Inside there is plenty of space, although we spent very little time inside! Everything has been thought of and there was wifi and a music system. The owners cannot do enough for you and we were welcomed with a delicious authentic Greek meal, bread, milk, juice, wine and beers. They keep the pool clean and are outside tending the garden first thing every morning, making sure everything is perfect - which it was! We love this little corner of Corfu, we hired a boat from Nissaki harbour and also enjoyed meals at Glyfa Taverna, Nikolas Taverna in Agni and Restaurant Caryatides in nearby Barbati - where we ate a couple of times as the staff were so lovely. As we were travelling with my elderly parents and 2 small children, we did find we needed a car to get around, although the more mobile of families would definitely be ok walking. I really hope to return here someday and would highly recommend a stay here.

Stunning villa and views, great location and perfect for families
Perfect villa for our 2 families with children ranging from 6-13. The pool was huge with beautiful views towards Corfu town and Albania. The pool table and table tennis kept the kids entertained when they wanted a break from the sun. Great location to walk to Glyfa beach and taverna, with Nissaki and Barbati beaches only 2 minutes in the car. Kassiopi was only a 25 minute drive and easy to reach by boat hired from Nissaki, stopping at coves to swim along the way. Corfu Town was only 30 mins away, with Aqualand 40 mins (a must for the kids!) and the inflatable obstacle course at Ipsos 10 mins away also provided lots of fun. We were greeted on the first day with a delicious lunch cooked by the owner Dimitris - such a surprise and gorgeous local food. The owners were so helpful and lovely. Would recommend and love to return.

Perfect In All Ways
We absolutely loved Corfu and our stay in this property. The house is completely as described in the listing but does not fully capture the charm you will actually feel once you arrive. It was our private oasis for the entirety of our stay and it felt special to open up and bring the house alive each morning and to welcome us back after any of our adventures. The owners were amazing and truly have thought of everything. They start you off with a gorgeous, authentic meal including a main, salad, bread, wine, fruit, coffee and waters. The house is well stocked for any cooking needs as well as the basic soaps, toilet paper, dishwasher tabs etc. The layout of the house including the outdoor kitchen, garden, seating areas and pool work so nicely together. The pool was the biggest and cleanest of any home we have ever stayed in with incredible views. The beds were also very comfortable and the house was well designed and maintained from top to bottom both inside and out! We felt the coves starting with Glyfa and moving north were the best on the island. We spent our days either by the pool or at the Nissaki beach just a two minute drive away. We rented a boat one day to tour the coves north of Barbati. There are some wonderful restaurants for both lunch and dinner all along those spots and you can use a water taxi to pick you up and drop you off if you would prefer not to drive. The walk down to Glyfa beach and the Taverna is made safe and easy by a path. It does require you to be semi fit but you can certainly take breaks along the way! Apologies for the long and gushing review but it can be daunting to book a holiday over the Internet so hopefully this has helped. You won’t regret your stay at this amazing property. Pair it with a few day stay in old Corfu Town and it will be your dream vacation.
