Dorian Fiscardo

• Sleeps: 10

• Bathroom: 1-5
• Minimum stay: 1 week

Whether you’re a romantic couple, a family in search of rest and reconnection, or a fun group of friends, you’ll find your Greek island paradise at Dorian Fiscardo.

Located on the northern tip of the island of Kefalonia – made famous by the captivating novel and film Captain Corelli’s Mandolin – Fiscardo is a picturesque Venetian harbour, with traditional cobbled streets and a quayside peppered with welcoming tavernas.

Accommodation comprises Dorian House, an architect-designed waterfront villa sleeping up to eight guests, and Dorian Apartment, a romantic self-contained bolthole for two. Both retreats boast heavenly views across the shimmering, turquoise Ionian Sea, for a holiday that promises to linger long in your memory.

(You can even book both retreats together for an incredible summer holiday for up to ten guests – so none of your favourite people have to stay at home!)

If you’ve opted for Dorian House, you’ll find the architect-designed, creatively-styled villa equipped with four elegant double bedrooms… each one with its own bath or shower room to limit awkward morning queues.

You’ll also have four spacious, furnished terraces to choose from – not to mention two scenic balconies, for outdoor living at its most visually indulgent! Positioned on a tranquil cove, you can unwind to the gentle sound of the sea lapping on the rocks below…

…in fact, why not grab a bean bag lounger and head on down, perhaps taking a dip in that secluded, sun-dappled cove while you’re there? Return to a sizzling barbecue on the sea-facing terrace, or a hearty feast whipped up in the fully-equipped kitchen, before challenging your loved ones to a round of pool in the basement games room.

More information

Dorian Apartment, meanwhile, boasts three sets of gleaming French doors that let the sunshine and sea air right in, and a sumptuous living space with a huge L-shaped sofa to snuggle on.

Though you may, of course, prefer getting lost in romantic conversation out on the terrace, curled up on the large banquette, or simply enjoying a good book from the comfort of the gently swaying hanging chair… before it’s time for a delicious supper at the marble outdoor dining table.

When it’s finally time to turn in, you’ll find the sumptuous bedroom furnished with a superking bed, and a second terrace furnished with sun loungers – ideal for a lazy afternoon nap, followed up with an opulent soak in the freestanding bath tub.

What next? Well, you can take a five-minute stroll to the quayside and watch the fishing boats and yachts pass by from your chosen taverna. You could also choose to visit the many shops dotted along those charming cobbled streets.

There are plenty of beautiful walking trails ready and waiting to be traversed… or how about renting a kayak or paddleboard, or even a boat, so you can explore the Ionian islands at your leisure?

One thing is for certain: however you choose to while away your holiday time at Dorian Fiscardo, it’s bound to be beautiful.
