Location
About the surrounding area of Villa ConichalLefkada, otherwise known as Lefkas, is a lush, beautiful island surrounded by fabulous beaches. Its scenic hilly countryside is sprinkled with quaint hilltop villages such as Lazarata. You can climb mountain peaks and walk or cycle along the many trails, captivated by the gorgeous scenery. Some of best places to see are the Skari Mountain with its centenarian oak trees, the gorge of Melissa, the water springs of Dafni and Kersia and Elati Mountain. When hiking, you will enjoy exploring ancient monasteries, small churches and gorgeous villages.
The mountain village of Karya, is lovely with its central square full of busy taverna tables under the shade of a huge plant tree. Visitors enjoy the local Karysaniki embroidery, once a vital part of the national dress. North-east of Karya and surrounded by towering cypress trees, mountain scenery and craggy cliffs is Lazarata with its two notable churches, Agios Dionissis and Agios Spiridonas. Lazarata is surrounded by vineyards, olive groves, citrus plantations and the red-roofed houses. Nearby are the sleepy villages of Asprogeratkata, Kavallos and Pinakochori. You can take an organised mountain bike tour of the island, a great way to see the island from a different perspective. Some cycling tours also include the stunning neighbouring island of Meganisi. It is quite remarkable that Lefkas remains under the tourist radar and feels like a special secret.
Leaving Villa Conichal for a beach day, you should head to the nearby Pefkoulia, Milos and Kathisma beaches. Milos is wonderful. Kathisma Beach faces the Ionian archipelago, offering fine dazzling white sand, sparkling turquoise waters and a good selection of beach bars and sun loungers. Pefkoulia Beach is an impressive sandy beach close to the fishing village of Agios Nikitas. The beach can get quite crowded in the summer as it is so popular. Among the island’s most beautiful beaches are Egremni, Kathisma and the mesmerising Porto Katsiki which is loved for its golden sands and fascinating landscape. The unique beauty of Egremni’s 2.5 km beach has made it one of the most photographed landscapes on the island. Its name comes from the impressive cliffs that surround the beach. The best beaches for windsurfing and kitesurfing are Agios Ioannis and Vassiliki. Nidri Beach is very organised with an excellent watersports centre and plenty of loungers, parasols and beach bars.
Nidri is the largest of the tourist towns with Nikiana is the second. The town boasts an endless list of amenities and activities, irresistible sandy beaches, unforgettable views, an excellent dining scene and beautiful scenery. Nidri and Sivota are favourites with yacht charter firms. Island hopping is very popular, very easy and very enjoyable. Excursion boats can take you to the local islets and the secluded coastal bays of Lefkas. Ferries can take you to Ithaca and Kefalonia. The gorgeous Geni peninsula is a fifteen minute drive around the bay from Nidri or a five minute crossing by boat. Geni village is a friendly, traditional fishing village where you will be made to feel very welcome in its charming waterfront tavernas. Another fabulous place to visit is the medieval castle of Santa Maura.
Wine lovers enjoy Lefkas Earth, the home of some fine local wines. You can combine this stop with a fresh seafood lunch overlooking the brilliant blue waters at Sivota or Vasiliki.

Kids
Best Suited For: All AgesVilla Conichal is ideal for a family holiday. It is located in the heart of this special island with wonderful countryside views and total privacy. The garden is lovely and perfect for family games. The pool is always very popular too. The villages of Lazarata and Karya are wonderful, very friendly and offer some unique shops, cafes and restaurants.
Children love Lefkas’ fantastic beaches and its warm turquoise water. Most of the beaches are backed by a beautiful, verdant mountainous landscape which makes them look even more beautiful. There is a good variety of watersports on many beaches and the sunsets are magical. Porto Katsiki Beach is often called the ‘Maldives of Europe’ because of its immense beauty. Egremni Beach is another much-loved beach. Adventurous older children enjoy kitesurfing or windsurfing at Mili Beach, Agios Ioannis, Vassiliki and at Kathisma, one of the nearest beaches to the villa. Children love paragliding over Kathisma Beach. Nidri Beach is excellent for families. The island is a great place to learn a new watersport. Children also love taking boat trips to the islands including Skorpios, the island owned by the Onassis family.
The amazing Dimosari Waterfalls, also known as the Nidri Waterfalls are worth a visit. There is a delightful cafe for refreshments. The waterfalls are one of the scenic highlights of the island with the water falling into a blue lake framed by huge rocks. Swimming in the lake is lovely.
The Monastery of Faneromeni dates back to the 17th century and offers a wonderful view of the lagoons and beaches around it. Children enjoy lighting candles in orthodox churches. The monastery is also home to a mini zoo with deer, birds, ducks, parrots, squirrels and chickens. Another trip that helps them to learn about the island it to take a tour of the Olive Museum ‘Fabbrica’ which explains the island’s traditional craft, olive oil production. It includes a tasting at the end. Close to the museum is the Kerasia Waterfall, another beauty with stunning views. Along the west coast of the island is the Venetian Olive Grove where you can stroll in the frame of centenary olive trees.
At the mountain village of Karya, close to Villa Conichal, children enjoy buying souvenirs from the selection of hand-made puppets and crafts, pretty lace and embroidery on sale. Karya is home to a wonderful Folklore Museum where ancient traditions are recreated. Other museums on the island include the Archaeological Museum of Lefkada and the Phonograph, Radio and Traditional Museum.

Beautiful surroundings
Beautiful Villa and surroundings. Well equipped with efficient air conditioning. Very friendly and helpful host. The apartment is in a very small village with 2 tavernas and a bakery. A car is necessary. It was a 30 minute drive to the nearest beach and we drove over 1 hour to Porto Katsiki. Great Villa for those looking for peace and privacy.
