Location
About the surrounding area of Villa PearVilla Pear can be found nestled high into the hillside of the authentic Greek village of Pelekas, on the west coast of the island of Corfu, boasting uninterrupted views over the azure blues of the Ionian Sea, The villa is a scenic fifteen-kilometre drive from the international airport of Ioannis Kapodistrias, across the island’s countryside. In the village, you will find mini marts stocked with provisions to cater for your holiday and local tavernas where you can enjoy traditional Corfiot dishes.
The nearest beach of Pelekas is only one hundred and fifty metres from the villa, and a great starting point to explore the myriad of beautiful beaches that populate the west coast, including the area's picturesque Paleokastritsa, noted for its sandy shores and crystal clear waters. For watersports head to Glyfada and Kontogialos, for peace and quiet try Ermones, and for families, you can’t beat Agios Gordios.
The island offers a whole host of activities to keep you fit on holiday, including hiking, mountain biking, cycling, yoga, walking tours, snorkelling and scuba diving, horse riding, water rafting, and sailing. For those who want to practice their swing, an international golf course is only six kilometres from the villa.
The UNESCO World Heritage site of Corfu old town is well worth a visit and is only thirty-five kilometres from the villa. The old town can be traced back to ancient Greece, with thousands of years of history, Venetian architecture, French influences, and English rule. Follow the winding streets to discover fortresses and palaces, Byzantine and Archaeological museums, destination squares, thirty-seven churches and a cathedral, souvenir shops, and a whole host of inviting restaurants, cafes, and bars. Visit Achilleion Palace, once the summer home of Sisi, Elizabeth, Empress of Austria, or take a trip to Mon Repos Palace, the original summer residence of the King of Greece, and birthplace of Prince Philip.
Get a taste of Corfu with an olive oil or wine tour, sample the delights, and then take some home with you. If it’s nightlife you are after, many of the beach clubs offer after-sundown sets, top of the list is Pazuzu Club in Glyfada or Fabrica at Acharavi. Party until dawn at the holiday hot spot destinations of Sidari, Acharavi or Kavos, or take a gamble at the Corfu Casino. Venture further afield with a trip to Benitses Bay, where you can take daily boat trips, cruise along the shore, or island hop to Paxoi and Antipaxoi, tiny islets in the Ionian Sea.

The Island/Getting There
One of the largest and greenest of the Ionian Islands, Corfu is far more than its trademark blue-hued seas and sandy coastline. With its UNESCO World Heritage status and unbeatable strolling opportunities, there is no better place to start exploring than the main town and its historic old quarter, where ancient churches, scattered ruins and a handful of museums mean Corfu’s layers of history can be found just about everywhere. And if you’re in need of a cosy abode, take a look at our flawless villas in Corfu.

Kids
Best Suited For: All AgesThere are loads for kids to do and see when you holiday on the island of Corfu, Starting with the villa, and your own private swimming pool, and as there are no set hours they can play and splash all day. The villa’s concierge team can arrange babysitters and children’s amenities, and advise and book family-friendly tried and tested excursions. The villa is only one hundred and fifty metres from the beautiful Pelekas beach, and within a short drive Avlaki, and Kerasia, with white pebbles and crystal clear water, are great for swimming and snorkelling, with lots of family-friendly cafes and restaurants, and organised sun loungers.
Other recommended family-friendly beaches are Paleokastritsa, near the old fortress, Agios Gordios on the west coast next to a church, and Glyfada, Nissaki and Ipsos beaches, for being organised and offering great facilities. All the family will enjoy a day out at the Aqualand Corfu Water Park, where they can slip down the forty-nine different slides, splash in pools, jump in the jacuzzi, and play video games. Your daredevil offspring will be thrilled with a day out at Sidari Watersports, where they can parasail across the complex. For those seeking adventure, your kids can try their sea legs wakeboarding, water skiing, or stand-up paddleboarding, and if they don’t take to the water, there’s a whizz around the island Vespa tour. In the Corfu Aquarium, your children will love spotting fifty species of local fish.
For the more adventurous, don their walking boots and go Radar Hiking where you can discover, just like Gerald Durrell, author of My Family and Other Animals, the flora and fauna of the island. If you don’t fancy walking, take a Jeep or Quad Bike Safari across off-road terrain, and stop at authentic villages, where you can learn about Corfu culture and traditions. All aboard the daily boats from Benitses Bay, superb for a swim and snorkelling in the sea, and a barbeque on board. If you’re feeling flush why not charter your very own private yacht for a family fun lazy day at sea, just ask the on-site concierge, and they’ll arrange it all for you.
Take the kids to Corfu town, where they can climb ancient fortifications, explore Byzantine and Venetian castles, stroll through the public gardens, listen to bands at the music pavilion, and play cricket on the English pitch in the old square. Visit many of the museums, including the unique Banknote Museum, displaying Greek money from coins to the Euro, and the Doll Museum in the Casa Palante, which brings traditional Corfu society to life. And if all that gets too tiring, hop aboard the city bus tour for a sample of all the major sites and sights!
