Villa Description
The Old Bakery – Exclusive to Prestige Villas, Katavolos, Nissaki, Corfu
Exclusive to and fully managed by Prestige Villas, The Old Bakery is a beautifully restored four-bedroom country house with an additional detached guest cottage set beside the pool. As its name suggests, this charming property was once the local bakery serving the pretty hillside hamlet of Katavolos. Today, it has been lovingly transformed into a unique and characterful home by its British owner, combining authentic Corfiot architecture with modern comforts.
Nestled amidst tranquil olive groves overlooking Nissaki, The Old Bakery exudes rustic charm and timeless elegance. The original section of the house retains its flagged stone floors, metre-thick walls, and low-beamed ceilings, evoking the warmth and history of a bygone era. In contrast, the newer extension brings light and space, featuring a bright contemporary shower room with dual rainfall showers and a fresh, modern design.
Throughout the house, views from the picture-perfect windows frame the landscape like a painting, rolling hills, silver-green olive trees, and the glistening Ionian Sea beyond.
During the warmer months, guests can retreat to the covered veranda that spans the rear of the house, a peaceful space ideal for leisurely lunches or evening meals around the large solid-wood dining table, followed by relaxed moments on the comfortable sofas as the sun sets over the bay.
Below the house lies the impressive 10m x 5m swimming pool, surrounded by stone terraces and lush tropical foliage. Completely private, this area offers breathtaking views down the valley to the azure sea below. Comfortable sun loungers rest beneath a shaded pergola, providing the perfect spot to unwind during the heat of the afternoon.
Beside the pool sits the Guest Cottage Suite (available at a supplement), offering a serene retreat with a king-size bed and en-suite shower room—ideal for couples seeking extra privacy.
With its harmonious blend of old-world charm and modern style, The Old Bakery is a true gem,a peaceful Corfiot haven where history, comfort, and natural beauty meet.
Please note: The Guest Cottage carries a supplement.

Nissaki is one, if not, the most popular areas along the North East coast of Corfu for villa holidays. Nissaki spreads itself along a 3km stretch of stunning coastline, encompassing numerous bays and small mountain hamlets. The harbour is the focal point of the area, with a selection of traditional tavernas located around the pretty harbour and immaculate pebbly beach. Here you will find the clearest water, a haven for snorkelling. There are a good selection of restaurants here, Miltos Restaurant is the built on the edge of the rocky outcrop overlooking the sea and the beach. It’s the largest most popular taverna down in Nissaki where Agatha & Lakis and their family before them have been serving delicious home cooked food since 1955.

Jon O, UKDate of stay: August 2025 The Old Bakery is a beautiful villa in an incredible location with quite spectacular views. The villa itself is a real mix of old and new but has retained all of its character and charm. The outdoor dining and living spaces in particularly were fantastic. The indoor living space was wonderfully homely.
Kate D, UKDate of stay: July 2025 We stayed as two families in the Old bakery in July 2025. The house is really lovely. Incredibly well appointed and comfortable. Prestige Villas were excellent and made the whole stay enjoyable
Sabrina K, UAEDate of stay: June/July 2025 We had the most amazing trip and experience. The house is the perfect blend of cozy and luxurious. We are already missing the view and town. Thank you for making the trip so easy and special.
Sabrina K, UAEDate of stay: June/July 2025 (Via Airbnb) - We had the most wonderful time at the old bakery. The view is already missed and truly breathtaking. The house is perfect for a family of all ages, and we’ve already recommended the place to our friends. We hope to come back soon!
Rosie A, UKDate of stay: November 2024 We had an amazing time at The Old Bakery, it was a place of peace, calm and a home from home. The breathtaking views and plentiful amenities made the stay extremely enjoyable and I’d recommend it to anyone who will listen. The villa has everything you need even down to water shows for the beach. Aphrodite in her shop at the bottom of the hill was incredibly helpful offering lots of recommendations, and Annabelle and the team made the booking journey and car collection so easy and stress free. We’d 100% love to visit again.
Andrew G, UKDate of stay: September 2024 Enjoyed a late September break at the Bakery for the fourth year in a row. It is an awesome gem of a villa - Mama Mia and the Durrells charm a plenty...but with all the mod cons that you could wish for. Pool is a delight. Just the place to lose yourself for a break and enjoy the sublime views. Like everywhere in Corfu, there is a mazy 5 minutes drive from the main road, but the payoff is sooo worth it. Easy access for the North East coast and the wilder life in Barbati and Ipsos. We hired bikes (delivered to the house) and enjoyed a few days cycling the countryside.
Katie T, UKDate of stay: August 2024 We loved staying at the Old Bakery. The view was stunning.. we loved exploring the area by boat and visiting local tavernas. The road up to the villa is not for the faint hearted! We used a cook on who came recommended by prestige villas who was excellent.
