Villa with Private Pool set in a Large Garden in Avlaki near Kassiopi. EOT/MHTE

Situated in the favoured North East coast of Corfu Koutsounada House is an elegant and contemporary property built in the Corfiot style. Nestling amongst olive trees in tranquil grounds extending to one acre it is tastefully furnished and very well equipped for both indoor and outdoor living.

Just 300 metres behind the stunning white crescent of Avlaki beach this charming house will appeal to families looking for seclusion with activities for the more energetic on the doorstep. The beach is delightfully unspoilt and has two excellent tavernas (with free wireless internet access), windsurfing, dinghy sailing and boat hire; horse-riding is also available nearby. The picturesque village of Agios Stefanos is a short drive away, as is the harbour town of Kassiopi with its shops, bars and vibrant nightlife. Local supermarkets are a 5 minute drive (20 minute walk) and will deliver free of charge.

Excellent Villa in a Quiet Location

Excellent accommodation if you want a top quality villa in a quiet location. The 2 restaurants / tavernas next to the beach and 5 minutes stroll away are both excellent. If you have a car then this a great base from which to visit Northern Corfu but it is also fine to just kick back with friends.

Perfect family stay

This is a beautiful house and suited us - 6 adults - perfectly, though would work well for up to eight. We loved the pool and various spaces to sit outside, to eat, read or sunbathe, and made good use of the table-tennis and bbq. Perfectly situated for peace and calm, but an easy stroll to the beach for swimming, boat hire and excellent taverna.

Beautiful Villa in a great location

We loved the villa and the pool was beautiful. The villa is just a short walk to Avlaki beach and a great Taverna. The villa was extremely well equipped and very comfortable. The managers were very attentive and it was kept really clean for the entirety of our stay. The area is beautiful with lots of towns to explore either by car or even better by boat.

A very relaxing place to have a holiday. Very close to one of the nicest beaches, and the best taverna at the end the lane. The house is just lovely, great location, private, well designed, very comfortable with lots of shady garden areas and a fantastic pool. We had a veryrelaxing and enjoyable week and will definitely be back. Thank you for letting us stay.

Wonderful Koutsounada

Our third visit to this wonderful villa on Avlaki bay. Everything was as good as previous visits which will ensure we come back many more times. Our grownup family for the first week and friends for the second is a winning combination. We visited our usual restaurants (Cavo barbera, Thomas’s, Nikolas, Kochili, and our brand new favourite, Kima in Kassiopi). Highly recommend.

Lovely villa, very well equipped and an easy walk to the beautiful Avlaki beach

We had a great holiday, the villa is in a perfect location. Local beach restaurant is lovely (recommended by Patricia). We hired a boat and spent our days visiting all sorts of beautiful bays and coves - which we would highly recommend. Patricia and Natoushka were super helpful before and during the holiday. Thank you

Perfect holiday retreat

Stayed for a very enjoyable week in June and found the villa/house to be very comfortable and well placed for a quiet retreat in a delightful garden with a wonderful pool. However, the lovely Avlaki Bay is just a short walk away and has the great fortune to have a very friendly taverna - Cavo Barbaro - which produced such delicious food that we ate there 5 nights out of the 7! We had a couple of trips out and really enjoyed a boat trip which afforded us the opportunity to see all the surrounding bays from a different vantage point. Everyone was so friendly in Corfu and I would thoroughly recommend the house.

Spacious, charming villa and gardens

Koutsounada House is delightful - tastefully designed and furnished, with plenty of space and a sociable, open-plan layout which lends itself brilliantly to groups who want to spend time together. The gardens and pool (which is very large and fresh) have been thoughtfully landscaped, and more than make up for the absence of a sea view. The villa is located in a picturesque corner of the island, which is very peaceful and has various interesting beaches and towns within walking distance or a short drive away. The area was perhaps a little more remote than we had anticipated, and we couldn't find a proper supermarket nearby, but we made do with the smaller convenience-type shops. The taverna at the end of the lane was very accommodating and serves great traditional Greek cuisine. Our other recommendation would be to hire a boat (we used Sotiris in nearby A. San Stefanos) so you can explore the breathtaking coast and visit some of the excellent waterside tavernas.

Party of eight , we all loved the pool, table tennis and house games. The house has ac which is essential in summer. The barbecue and outdoor dining area are great. The location is perfect with a short walk to Avlaki beach being a huge bonus. Taxi to kassiopi or Agni around €10 . We hired a boat for two days right from the beach which we highly recommend All in all a fab stay, thank you x

Highly recommended

This is our third two week stay at this fantastic villa and we have loved it more each time. The location is perfect with fabulous beaches and restaurants close by, including Kassiopi, which has many great places to eat and is only 10 minutes away by car. If you want to chill, this is fine too as the villa has everything you could possibly need. It is quiet with many cool places to sit outside and read, as we like to do, a well equipped kitchen, a barbecue, table tennis and air conditioning throughout. We thoroughly recommend this villa, we will be back and if we could give it a 6 out of 5 we would 😎

Beautiful

Peaceful quiet setting, loved hearing the sound of the pebbles from beach moving with waves. Generous sized pool to exercise in, well equipped to high standard throughout the house. Seconds from beach and two tavernas, local supermarket delivers and will come and collect you. So need for car unless you want to explore, I would describe the location as s situated in a golden triangle, villa, beach, taverna. Heaven.

A wonderful stay at this beautiful house to celebrate my wife's milestone birthday. A week wasn't long enough! As a family of 8, we found the house to be spacious, comfortable and well equipped. We made good use of the amazing pool and loungers. The location is perfect for a peaceful stay. 5 minutes walk to the lovely Avlaki beach for a morning swim. The bonus was having a great Taverna, Cavo Barbaro at the end of the lane. They looked after us very well. We hired a car and found it essential for supermarket runs and to explore this lovely corner of Corfu. Thank you from the Speirs family for a wonderful stay!

Well equipped villa, perfect pool in a lovely setting and a great location.

We visited the villa for a second year and, despite having built it up in our minds following a wonderful first visit, it did not disappoint. The villa is well equipped with efficientl air conditioning. The garden is mature and beautiful and a wonderful pool catches the sun all day (in late June at least). Nearby Avlaki beach (no more than 200 yards) is quiet and unspoilt, although it is a pebble beach. At the beach there is an excellent taverna, Cavo Barbaro, which we would very highly recommend. Agios Stefanos is less than a 10 minute drive away and well worth a visit with some great bars and restaurants. We had a really enjoyable time, it was quiet and relaxing.

Another glorious holiday

We returned to this wonderful villa after a gap of 4 years. It was like coming home to an old friend. All every bit as good as my last review (see review posted June 2018) I forgot how lovely the pool was and the proximity of the sea and the fabulous Cavo Barbaro (taverna at the end of the drive) We had friends and family staying and the days slipped by seamlessly. Even the excitement of a biblical storm and a 6 hour power cut did not diminish our enjoyment. Also highly recommend Kochili taverna in Stefano- which we visited several times.

Beautiful Koutsounada House

We had an amazing time at Koutsounada House, everything from booking to arrival was smooth. The photos do not do it justice, it's larger and more beautiful. I could not fault a thing, the pool area is so secluded, surrounded by olive trees, all the bedrooms, facilities, outside space are just perfect for a large family. The local Taverna is within a five minute walk, and it's very good, great food and hospitality. The beach is quiet , with an inviting crystal blue sea . We hired local boats from Avlaki Boats and had a great time exploring the coast . We all had a fantastic time, thank you Patricia, Natushka and Yianni, you made our first visit to Corfu a special one, The Tubridy Family, London

Fabulous villa in fantastic location

We are a family of five (21, 19, 14 and the parents!) who stayed in Koutsounada for two weeks from 7 August 2021 to 21 August 2021. The villa is fabulous, having the benefit of being quiet but close to a wonderful beach and two tavernas. The property also benefits from easy access to Kassiopi, the spectacular scenery and all the other attractions of North West Corfu. If you want to hire a boat, as we did, you can do this within five minutes walk from your front door. The property is exceptionally clean and has everything you could possibly want for a family holiday. The outside space is fantastic with multiple shady areas, a nice garden, a lovely big pool and table tennis for the energetic. Inside the downstairs area benefits from a high roof and open plan layout with many doors, which is ideal for a hot summer in Greece. There are four good sized bedrooms, all with en-suite bathrooms or their own bathroom and air conditioning for the warmer nights. The whole place is tastefully decorated and furnished to an exceptionally high standard with a large fridge freezer and plenty of cups, glasses etc. along with a great barbecue and anything you could possibly need for a night eating in. The owners could not have been more helpful with the booking process and were particularly understanding with the COVID situation, giving us on the ground information before we arrived. The local management team were really helpful and made us very welcome and the cleaners also did a superb job. We decided to book again before the end of our second week and it therefore goes without saying that we would have no hesitation in recommending this property, it is superb and 5/5 in every respect!

Glorious June at Koutsounada

We have just spent 4 idyllic weeks at Avlaki beach in this wonderful property. The first week with our grown up family and the rest with a series of friends to celebrate a major birthday. The villa is perfect. Comfortable spacious rooms, well equipped kitchen, magnificent pool and beautiful secluded mature gardens. The ping pong table is an inspired accessory and I reckon our boys were on it 5 hours a day! The beach is 5 minutes away and a daily swim (coast to coast - across the bay and back) followed by a cappuccino and fresh orange juice at the taverna became the daily challenge. The days drifted by in a sunny (and slightly alcoholic) haze. Cavo Barbaro became our favourite eating spot including a weekly moussaka which they cooked for us to take back to the villa and welcome the arriving guests. We walked (and got lost) to San Stefano, we water taxied to Agni and Glyfa tavernas. Yannis supermarket was superb (their yoghurt and hummus was a firm favourite as was his own red and white wine, Garnelli - we drank nothing else). We hired boats from Stefano boats (and the lovely Leonora). Our favourite fish restaurant was Imerolia in Kassiopi. We even found time on a rare grey day to drive to Old Perithia - a preserved ancient village in the hills. We managed to watch the rugby and the football at Damianos in Stefano - a comfortable sports bar. But the star of the show was Koutsounada House. I will long remember leisurely lunches and dinners under the pergola and BBQs with fresh meat ordered from Yannis. All efficiently looked after by Natushka and Yianni and the brilliant cleaners. Thank you all for giving us such a memorable month. We will be back!

Koutsounada <3

As a family group (2 parents and 3 adult daughters plus their partners) we stayed for the first week in September and it was blissful. We loved the decor of the pretty house which was as described and clean,spacious and well equipped. The pool is large and we spent many an afternoon chilling there. An early morning scenic coastal hike to Agios Stefanos is fun and you can grab some breakfast there and walk back or get someone to pick you up. Can recommend renting a boat from Avlaki Boats (on the beach) for the day. Communication both with the owner Patricia and the housekeeper Natushka was excellent and informative. We ate at both beach tavernas but far preferred the vibe/food at Cavo Barbaro. We hope to return and would love to stay for longer next time.

Lovely villa in a superb position.

A wonderful week in Corfu staying at Koutsounada House. The villa was very spacious for 8 of us and the location behind Avlaki beach was perfect. The outside area feels a little overgrown around the house, so we chose not to dine outside due to the number of wasps. We spent one day by the pool which is fantastic and has plenty of very comfortable sun loungers. The house itself is very well equipped and everything works well, although the hot water is limited. Brilliant restaurants within walking distance such as Cavo Barbaro which is beautiful in the evening. Hope to return next year!

We are two families who have always holidayed together since our children were very small. We first spent a holiday in north east Corfu in 2005, and were so impressed with the area that we found ourselves returning year-on-year.

In 2008 we eventually found a suitable plot on which to build our much-loved Koutsounada House. Even after so many years we still look forward to holidaying together in our joint home, and take great pleasure in seeing how the house and garden have developed and matured over time.
