This charming cottage, with a pretty garden and large pool is a four minute walk from Sandy Almiros Beach on the north coast of Corfu. It is perfect for beach-lovers and pool lovers alike.

Almiros is 8km long; a huge unspoilt swathe of beach, ideal for children, with gently shelving crystal clear waters, and reached by a winding road through sand dunes to a massive wild untamed area. Blue flag status enriches this wild natural coastline with subtle husbandry. Along the beach there are small tavernas, bars, and a couple of mini-markets.

Stepping onto Barbati beach from the garden gate of Cote Jardin for the first time is a magical moment. It is hard to believe that across the landscaped gardens and immaculate lawns the Ionian Sea laps Barbati beach immediately in front of the property. In the evenings a pretty pergola with tasteful outdoor furniture is a favourite of ours to sip a cool drink or dine al fresco and gaze at the ocean in front.

Amfitriti         Crete
Sleeps 2   Livadia   Elafonissi   Greece   Webref: 2283
1 Bedroom & 1 Bathroom

Amfitriti is an ideal choice for a couple seeking a romantic break in an attractive private setting. An immensely clever design has seen the creation of an open space that merges the living, dining and kitchen areas with the sleeping area where a queen-size bed sits next to an inviting Jacuzzi bath, a private cloakroom alongside. The décor of both vivid and pastel shades harmonises perfectly with the property’s natural stone walls and is a wonderful example of how traditional architecture can be given a thoughtful, contemporary feel.

With the long swathe of Maleme beach virtually at the bottom of the garden this individual architect-designed property, quite simply, enjoys the most stunning of settings. Constructed along simple, traditional lines to make the most of its enviable position Blue Sea is a cubist, whitewashed villa that is modern, spacious and utterly unique. Gazing out from the house and terraces across open fields fringed by huge clusters of tall bamboo shoots swaying in the breeze, the eye is inexorably drawn to the distant horizon where sky and ocean merge to become a seamless cobalt collage.
