The Village

Perivoli is a village in the south of Corfu, with a history that stretches back centuries. Located around 36 km from Corfu Town, it remains closely connected to the traditions and rhythm of the island.

Surrounded by olive groves, Perivoli sits at one of the narrowest points of Corfu, giving access to two very different coastlines within a short distance.

To the east lies Kalyviotis Beach, where the sea is shallow and calm, with clear blue waters looking out towards the Greek mainland and the Ionian Sea. To the west, the landscape opens to the Adriatic, with long stretches of sandy beach, deeper waters, and a more dramatic backdrop of cliffs and open horizon.

The village itself is lived-in and practical. The centre of Perivoli is around five minutes from the house and includes two traditional tavernas, a mini market, a greengrocer, a butcher, and local cafés. It is a place where daily life continues at a steady pace.

Perivoli is also home to many churches, including the historic Agioi Saranta, a medieval church that reflects the long presence of faith and community in the area. The house overlooks the old, picturesque church of Panagia, which remains a quiet focal point within the village.

Along the nearby beaches, you will find a number of restaurants and places to sit and eat, offering simple, local food in relaxed settings by the sea.

Perivoli offers a different experience of Corfu, one that is less centred on tourism and more connected to the landscape, the village, and everyday life.
