The wonderful Olive Mill Villa is a rural treat on the captivating Greek island of Kefalonia, and one of the few houses on the island with a private chef service. Combining the charm of traditional Greek architecture, think rustic stone walls and terracotta tile roofs, with beautiful gardens, modern guestrooms and a large outdoor Tuscan-style swimming pool. The villa makes the perfect choice for guests looking to relax and recharge in a countryside setting. The villa even basts a helicopter landing area, however, the nearest bakery, taverna and shops are conveniently all within walking distance.

Set amidst a vast olive tree estate for your utmost tranquillity and privacy, and close to the sandy beach of Trapezaki, this charming property offers the best of both worlds – quiet seclusion, yet easy links to discover more of what this breath-taking island has to offer. Inside, the beautifully furnished rooms offer contemporary comfort to complement the classic yet stylish feel, with plenty of luxurious extras including the finest quality linen, hairdryer and toiletries, as well as air conditioning throughout, which gives a pretty good indication of just how seriously comfort is taken here.

The spacious villa is spread across three sumptuous levels and can comfortably sleep between up to eight guests in the main house, and a further two in lower ground floor. Creamy pristine interiors and well-kept outdoor spaces make for a most relaxing hideout. The stone-paved pool terrace includes soft grassy spots perfect for children to play or for you to lay with your holiday read and several loungers are lining the pool for finding your prime sun spot. The garden also boasts an alfresco dining area, more sink-into seating and a barbecue, and is surrounded by flowers, plants and trees for a ‘Secret Garden’ style escape.

Floor-to-ceiling windows let the sunshine flood in, and you can survey the stunning landscape from the private balconies. On the ground floor, there’s a dining area, fully-equipped country-style kitchen, as well as a twin bedroom with an en-suite and a double bedroom with a separate bathroom. On the lower ground floor, there’s also a twin bedroom with an en-suite with it's own entrance, this is available at an extra cost. On the first floor you’ll find the master bedroom with a king-size bed, another twin room and a bathroom with a mosaic shower.

Back to the private chef, Yolanda is very talented and her Moussaka is pretty sensational to. Whatever your choice of food, you will enjoy fantastic freshly cooked meals in these wonderful surroundings. The only way to really experience that is to book a stay at Olive Mill Villa.

What Oliver loves...

  • Next door there is a small museum, showing artifacts of the original olive press. You’ll get a private tour and one of the meals can be served in the grounds.
  • We believe this is the only catered villa in Kefalonia, and it definitely has the best cook.
  • Upon arrival, you’ll receive a folder with tips on excursions, must-see sights as well as the full list of the chef, Yolanda's dishes, and a complimentary welcome hamper with wine and local products. Top tip: the Moussaka is not to be missed!
  • Guests of the villa have access to a small skippered 45 feet yacht, with room for 10 passengers, for daily trips. Note that these are charged at an additional cost and please enquire for further information
  • This popular villa books up fast, all previous clients have said expectations were exceeded.

What you should know

  • Despite the villa's prime location, the airport and Argostoli town are a 15-minute drive away and while the nearest bakery, taverna and mini-market are all within a short walk, the closest supermarket is a 10-minute drive and so it’s definitely necessary to hire a car
  • Please note that the fifth bedroom, although being in the main house, has separate external access
  • Those wanting access to five bedrooms, will need to select 10 guests at the time of booking and pay the relevant rate
  • Trapezaki beach is just 1900m from the property, easy walking down but the return trip is best by car!
  • The cook will prepare daily breakfasts, plus 1 main meal (lunch or dinner) 6 days a week
