Assos is one of the most spectacular settings in the Ionian, and this stone built villa, on the hillside above the harbour has been thoughtfully designed to make the most of the truly panoramic setting.
The master double bedroom with en-suite and the comfortable living room are situated at the front and open onto the paved terrace with its infinity pool. Inside or out the view across the sheltered harbour to the wooded slopes of the peninsula and the fortress beyond is exceptional. This villa certainly merits its name! A twin bedroom, also with en-suite bathroom and a well-equipped kitchen area complete the accommodation.

Behind the house a quiet lane leads in a few minutes down to the centre of the village with its old world charm shaded by ancient plane trees, and waterfront tavernas. Nothing in Assos is overstated; this is a traditional Ionian fishing village that has retained its charm.
The village lies at the heart of the spectacular cliffs of the west coast of Kefalonia, and in Venetian times would have been a remote outpost accessible only by a steep mule trail winding up the hillside. The trail itself starts just behind the village and a few minutes’ walk reveals one of the most spectacular views in western Greece, and incredible sunsets!
Assos, despite its enviable end-of-the-world location is far from remote. The famous Myrtos beach is only a 10 minute drive away and the picturesque port of Fiskardo and Agia Efimia are a short drive away.
