We were extremely excited to discover Villa Gregory on the waters edge of what is one of Corfu’s most magical bays. Situated just a pebbles throw from the childhood home of the Durrells, Villa Gregory has been a treasured holiday home and has remained in the same family for over forty years. It had remained in it’s original state until 2015 when it underwent a complete renovation project which has resulted, from the exterior a traditional Corfiot style villa but inside the ultimate in contemporary living with high spec fixtures and fittings and is an extremely comfortable home.

The covered veranda which spans half the length of the water side of the property is a paradise, from here you can relax in the shade with a book and watch the yachts in the bay, listening to the sound of the water lapping against the pebbles.

The spacious interior comprises of a very large open-plan sitting room, dining room and kitchen.

On the opposite side of the living area you will find a huge family bedroom with two double beds and a further single cabin bed with extra pull out singe, from this room there is a Juliet balcony just 5m from the waters edge.
