Villa Bournella

Description

Defying the standard format of villa descriptions this exceptional house is unique and truly romantic.

The indoor part of the house, in a stone two-storey building with a circular tower, is complimented by indoor/outdoor areas including a fully equipped kitchen, lounging day bed with home cinema and giant screen by the pool.

The piece de resistance must be the pool itself, gently sloping from a water depth of just 10cm, a wooden sunbathing jetty over the shallow section gives way to the swimming area plunging to a depth of over 2 metres. Infinity style, the pool overflows on the outer edge so that the stunning views are laid out below as you swim!

Add to this a Jacuzzi bath set next to the pool (behind glass in cooler weather), wonderfully stylish design and d?cor.We would thoroughly recommend this house for honeymooners, anniversaries or just as an exceptional holiday villa for 2!

EXCLUSIVE LOCATION
Villa Bournella is located in the area of Aghios Markos. Named after the patron saint of the Most Serene Republic of Venice, Agios Markos (one of the oldest villages in Corfu) is at the central part of the island, on the upper side of the internal bay of Corfu, at a distance of approximately 17km (or 20 minutes drive) from Corfu town, the airport and the main port.
The central part of the island offers the balanced mix of luscious green scenery, mountain slopes and sea that is typical of Corfu, as well as a variety of beaches and easy access to the amenities of the local resort-villages. The nearest beach for swimming is only 1 km or a 5 minute drive away.

LOCAL ACTIVITIES
Immersed in an olive grove and overlookingthe sea, , the villa can be an ideal base for hiking or trekking explorations of the surrounding landscape. If you love trekking along unique routes on natural mountain slopes, here you will find landscapes with wonderful views and rare flora (eg wild orchids) , reaching up to the highest point of Corfu, mountain Pantokrator (914m height). If you are more inclined towards cycling rather than trekking, bicycles can be provided on request. As a matter of fact, cycling can be an ideal way of exploring the area and accessing nearby beaches.
