A house that has been hosting parties since 1782.

Significant birthdays, anniversaries, christenings and family reunions, private dinners on the balcony, small off-sites, and film and photography. You need not be staying in the house to celebrate here.

Family occasions

Every reason for a celebration

Tell us what you have in mind and we will have it organised: food, flowers, music and transport. Come up for the day itself, or take the house for a few days around it.

Private dinners

Dinner on the balcony

When the house is between guests we can set one long table on the balcony for sixteen to twenty people, with a short menu of Corfiot dishes from family recipes: sofrito, pastitsada, bourdeto and bread from the oven.

  • One sitting, in the evening light
  • For groups staying elsewhere on the island
  • Transfers from hotels along the coast and in Corfu Town
  • Price on request

House tours

A short tour of the saloni and the story of the house, followed by a drink on the balcony. By arrangement, on days without guests in residence.

Small off-sites

Board meetings and retreats for eight to ten people, midweek in spring and autumn, with the house to yourselves. Painting, writing, yoga and walking groups are welcome too.

Film and photography

The house is still used for fashion shoots and filming. It was the main set for Villa Belmar in The Marble Hall Murders and appeared in The Durrells.
