Gastouri village lies 10km south of Corfu Town making it the ideal location to enjoy the vast sandy beaches of the south, the UNESCO historical town of Corfu and the Achilleion Palace & gardens, once the home to Princess Sissi & Kaiser Wilhelm and where James Bond ‘For your Eyes only’ was filmed. This traditional Corfiot village has 3 tavernas, some tourist shops selling traditional olive wood ornaments etc, a couple of cafe bars & a mini-market for the very basics. It’s a sleepy village where the bread is still baked the traditional way and old ladies with Donkeys wander the streets carrying fresh produce on their heads. Gastouri was also awarded Greece best village. The area surrounding the village is well tendered and the location of many upmarket properties. This beautiful area is the perfect choice for those looking for a central location with easy access to the majority of Corfu Island with Benitses with it’s wonderful selection of restaurants just a five minute drive down from the centre of the village.

Date of stay: June 2018 Die Ankunft war trotz der guten Beschreibung von Jane etwas schwierig. Das Key Pad am Tor funktionierte nicht, somit war der Zugang zum Haus nicht möglich. Telefonieren! Desweiteren war der Code für das Schlüsselkästchen am Haus falsch. Telefonieren! Auch der Code für das WLAN (WIFI) war falsch. Telefonieren! Die Geschirrspülmaschine ist total verkalkt und spült sehr schlecht. Eine Teekanne könnte auch nicht schaden. An der Wegbegrenzung der Zufahrt muss man auf herausstehende Armierungseisen achten. Reservereifen vorteilhaft! Die Küche ist im 1.Stock mit angrenzender großer, überdachter Veranda. Will man im Garten essen, muss man die Sachen alle heruntertragen. Das alles aber kann den positiven Gesamteindruck nur unwesentlich schmälern. Die Lage ist idyllisch, die Veranda riesig und dennoch gemütlich. Von hier aus hat man auch einen phantastischen Blick auf Corfu Town, einschließlich des Flugplatzes mit den startenden und landenden Flugzeugen. Ein weiteres Highlight ist der große und sehr schön gelegene Pool. Corfu Town ist in einer Viertel Stunde schnell erreicht. Die 2.Taverna am Ort (Kerkiras) kann ich nicht empfehlen. Die Lammkoteletts waren ungenießbar, ebenso der Hauswein! Ein sehr gutes Restaurant in Corfu ist das 'Venetian Well' Hier kann man an einem schönen kleinen und ruhigen Platz sehr gut essen. Schöne Plätze (Cafés) in Corfu sind auch am Falerati (NO) und Kanoni am Ende der Landebahn. Dann haben wir noch ein idyllisches Weingut namens Ambelonas entdeckt, wo man schön Abendessen kann. Der Hauswein ist Geschmacksache, in jedem Fall aber originell und eine Verkostung wert. Sehenswert sind natürlich das Achilleion und der "Kaiserstuhl" an der Westküste. Translation: ​The arrival was a bit difficult despite the good description of Jane. The key pad at the gate did not work, so the entrance to the house was not possible. To phone! Furthermore, the code for the key box at the house was wrong. To phone! Also the code for the WLAN (WIFI) was wrong. To phone! The dishwasher is totally calcified and rinses very bad. A teapot could not hurt either. At the limit of the driveway you have to pay attention to protruding reinforcing bars. Spare tires advantageous! The kitchen is on the 1st floor with adjoining large, covered porch. If you want to eat in the garden, you have to carry all the things down. But all this can only slightly diminish the positive overall impression. The location is idyllic, the porch is huge and yet cozy. From here you also have a fantastic view of Corfu Town, including the airfield with the taking off and landing aircraft. Another highlight is the large and beautifully located pool. Corfu Town is quickly reached in a quarter of an hour. I can not recommend the 2nd Taverna on the spot (Kerkiras). The lamb chops were inedible, as was the house wine! A very good restaurant in Corfu is the 'Venetian Well' Here you can eat very well in a nice small and quiet place. Nice places (cafés) in Corfu are also at Falerati (NO) and Kanoni at the end of the runway. Then we discovered an idyllic vineyard called Ambelonas, where you can have a nice dinner. The house wine is a matter of taste, in any case, original and worth a tasting. Worth seeing are of course the Achilleion and the "Kaiserstuhl" on the west coast.

Date of stay: June 2018 Vi havde et supert ophold i huset - dejlige rum, skøn terrasse og pool. Og dejlig lukket have. Kommer vi til Corfu igen, kan det sagtens være, at vi vil leje dette hus igen:-)My Response Thank you so much for your kind words!! Tranlation: Villa Rossi is a superb house. Can only be recommended to others. We had a great stay in the house - lovely room, lovely terrace and pool. And nice closed garden. If we come to Corfu again, it may be that we will rent this house again :-)

Date of stay: June 2018 Great location, great garden, great outdoor seating. Great pool, even in May nice and warm. We would book again. A few suggestions: 1. the 4th bedroom has no air conditioning and the bed squeaks terribly. 2. the upper bathroom is not so nice (no pictures in the prospect) 3.The outer door opener is defect. sometimes 10 tries until the gate opens. maybe the code should be changed, the 4 numbers everyone can see because the buttons are worn out. 4. An additional cooking pot would be nice. 5. The WLAN Code does not work, Android connects per WPS without code. The two I phone`s we could not connect. It was no Problem because we got LTE there. For the cleaning team: With a ceranfeldscraper you get the stove clean. The dishwasher was totally calcified and did not clean properly. Google helped: we reprogrammed the dishwasher from salt level zero to level 7 (max). So now enough bitching, the holiday was beautiful. With best regards H. R.

Catherina O, Leeds, UK
Date of stay: August 2017 We loved the Villa! Starting the day on the veranda, with its views of the hills and the coast was perfect. The pool and gardens were fabulous and our boys were happy to spend endless hours swimming or playing cards by the poolside. Being able to go out of the garden gate and be in one of the village tavernas in just a few minutes was great and we made the most of the home-grown vegetables and home-made taramasalata on offer. When we didn't eat in the village, it was less than 10 mins to drive to Benitses. The villa is a great base to see all the island and we enjoyed lots of day trips out and loved wandering the streets in the old part of Corfu Town. The villa is a traditional family home with plenty of space and good facilities - and our experience of booking through Jane and Chris is probably the most friendly and efficient service we've ever had. We've all struggled to get used to UK temperatures on our return home and definitely have half a mind still in Villa Rossi and Corfu! Our Response: Just wanted to thank you for the lovely review. Thank you so much for choosing Villa Rossi, it was our pleasure to be of service to you and very much look forward to seeing you again in Corfu in the future! With best wishes Jane & the Team

Date of stay: August 2017 I cannot compliment Jane and her team enough. She will work tirelessly for you to ensure that all of your requirements are met before you even arrive on holiday, and is available whenever you need her. If you are considering a Villa holiday in Corfu then choosing a villa through Prestige Villas of Corfu is the first step to having a fab holiday.

Date of stay: July 2017 A lot of space inside and outside. Very well maintained house. A very steep road to the gate of the house. Our car didn't make it to reach the house with four (two elderly children) people inside the car. Three of us had to walk the last 50 meters! Further on around the swimming pool (although it is really nice) a lot of wasps like the the same spot. The airco in the house works perfect. The beds are good. The veranda is a good place to avoid the hot Greek sun! I can recommend this house.

Date of stay: June 2017 The villa lived up to its listing and the accommodation was comfortable, the veranda was perfect for breakfast and relaxing throughout the day, as it offered a cool place to sit with lovely views. The villa staff offered an easy booking facility and were on hand for any help or issues during our stay. The pool and gardens were ideal and very welcome on hot days, although not a problem for us, the pool did attract a continual amount of wasps who seemed to use the edges of the pool to cool down. We travelled the island extensively and found the local population to be most welcoming and friendly. We dined at both local restaurants in Gastouri and the food was very good. Would definitely recommend Mezza Volta in Benitses (the first restaurant on the way in to Benitses from Gastouri) and meet Johnny Love who is proud of his multi coloured shoes, the food was very good. You will need a car. Overall would recommend Villa Rossi as an ideal tranquil location to enjoy Corfu.
