'The Old Bakery' Character cottage in Agios Martinos, Nr. Acharavi, Ionian Islands, Corfu - Peaceful village location of Agios Martinos, 3 km
to town and beaches.
Part of the cottage was formerly the first bakery in this area which we have converted into a spacious kitchen/dining room and a truly unique bathroom
with a sunken bath which now sits in the site of the old bread oven itself. On the ground floor there is also a cool lounge and a double bedroom with a
bespoke spiral staircase leading up to 2 further bedrooms and a bright lounge room and double doors out onto the terrace and roof top lap pool. Adjoin-
ing the cottage is a lovely two bedroom ground level apartment, with open plan high ceiling kitchen/ dining living space, and bathroom. Newly renovated
and originally being part of the old bakery, it has double glazed windows with mosquito blinds throughout and original marble floors. All guests enjoy
sole use of the pool and large roof terrace which can also be accessed via steps up the outside of the cottage. We are situated in the traditional village
of Agios Martinos, just 3km from Acharavi heading towards the mountains.
The Owners Comments:
"We were attracted by the laid back pace of life here, and feeling of safety, it's really refreshing. Also we enjoy all the different sounds of
Greek life, our favorites being the daytime cicadas in the height of summer, the chiming of the Scops owls at night, not to mention the specta-
cle of the fireflies in early May! We particularly like the fact that we are in a quite village, but close enough Acharavi which has everything we
need. And love that we can feel in the hills one moment then jump in the car and be at the beach in five minutes!"¢**
