Villa Daffy is an excellent base for exploring Lefkada in depth. Everyday amenities such as shops and restaurants are available in the nearby village of Lazarata, just over 2km away, while Lefkada Town is only a 7km drive. A beautiful sandy beach can be found at Nikiana on the east coast, around 8km from the villa. In fact, Lefkada is wonderfully compact, with most of the island easily reachable within an hour’s drive.
Lazarata is a peaceful mountain village set in the heart of Lefkada, surrounded by olive groves, cypress trees and traditional stone houses that give it an authentic rural charm. Its elevated position brings cooler temperatures and scenic walking routes through the hills, making it ideal for relaxed exploration. Just a short drive away, Lefkada Town provides a lively contrast with its colourful waterfront, historic streets, shops and inviting tavernas. Together, they offer the perfect balance of tranquil village life and easy access to the island’s cultural centre, beaches and marina.
