Pink House is an exquisite self catering holiday accommodation, graciously and traditionally decorated, and providing all modern facilities (air-conditionning included), so as to ensure a high standard of refined comfort, and attention to detail.
The villa is only 17 meters from the seashore and surrounded by a garden with lemon and orange trees at the rear of the house and various flowers and plants including bougainvilleas, aromatic herbs, and roses in the front yard.
Adjacent to a small and quite tavern, it has been lovingly restored using traditional materials and local craftsmanship so as to retain the original style of this impressive old building. The exterior walls, 80cm thick, keep the house cool in summertime and warm in the winter months.
There is a lovely terrace in the pink stone front of the villa with a superb sea view. At the rear, there is a large shaded terrace (a typical Corfiot "botzos") overlooking the backyard orchard. This is an ideal spot for outdoor lunching, dining and evening relaxation.
For 2008 Season, Pink House is still available during the following periods:
- from the 12th of September until the 17th of October 2008,
- from the 24th until the 31st October 2008 (one week). |

Kalami is a beautiful horse shoe bay of white pebbles shelving steeply into clear water, in the North-East of Corfu, 32 km from Corfu Town.
It became famous from Lawrence Durrell's White House, a white two storied house on a rocky promontory that was for several years in the 1930's the home of the novelist and his wife Nancy. Lawrence Durrell (1912-1990) was one of the most important novelists of the twentieth century and wrote during his staying in Corfu the "Prospero's Cell".
Three small supermarkets will provide you with all necessary goods. Nearby the White House there are two boat rental places and one point for water ski, Ringo and banana rides.
Furthermore, several Tourist Offices are present in Kalami, where you can change travellers cheques and foreign currency, rent a car or a motorcycle, and organise boat tours covering the surrounding bays (Agni, Kaminaki, Kouloura, San Stephano, Kassiopi).
The area is sufficiently covered by major mobile networks. Additionally, there is a telephone booth in the centre of the village. You will need a card to be purchased from the nearby supermarkets and tourist offices.
There are four tavernas in Kalami, serving traditional Greek cuisine, both on the waterfront and in the village behind.
There also two gift and souvenirs shops in the village selling ceramics and other traditional goods of Corfu. You may also find foreign newspapers to buy. |
