Villa Conichal | 3-Bedroom Villa in Lazarata Kefalonia
Holiday Home Rental Description
Mountain villages and turquoise coastlines collide in Lazarata, a hilltop settlement where red-roofed stone houses cluster around two ancient churches and vineyards stretch toward the horizon. A luxury villa rental in Lazarata means trading traffic for birdsong, and Villa Conichal delivers exactly that—a three-bedroom escape surrounded by cypress trees, olive groves and the kind of silence that makes you remember why you travel.
Inside Villa Conichal
Villa Conichal sleeps 6 guests across 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. The master bedroom features a double bed with an ensuite shower room, offering a private retreat that opens directly onto the garden terrace. Two additional bedrooms—one with a double bed and one with twin beds—share two bathrooms, one fitted with a bath and one with a shower. Neutral colour schemes and a mix of vintage and contemporary furniture create a calm atmosphere throughout all sleeping areas.
The living spaces centre on an open-plan design anchored by exposed stone walls and timber beams that speak to the villa’s traditional character. A fully equipped kitchen sits ready for self-catering, complete with electric cooker, microwave, refrigerator-freezer, filter coffee maker, toaster and kettle—the kind of setup that actually encourages cooking rather than ordering takeaway. The dining area flows naturally from the kitchen, while a cosy living room with corner sofa, TV and DVD player provides evening entertainment. A safe secures valuables, and books line shelves for quiet afternoons.
Practical amenities include a washing machine, iron and ironing board, hairdryer, slippers and a toiletries set in each bathroom. Free Wi-Fi connects you to the wider world if you choose to check in, and satellite TV offers news and entertainment during downtime. This is a property designed for guests who want comfort without pretence.
Outdoor Spaces and Living
The garden wraps around the villa like a sanctuary. Vibrant flower beds, mature trees and Mediterranean shrubs create layered greenery, while exotic plants add unexpected colour. The uniquely shaped private pool dominates the outdoor experience—a proper swimming focus rather than a decorative afterthought—complete with hydro massage jets for evening relaxation. Loungers and umbrellas line the pool deck, and a shaded dining area invites meals outdoors. The veranda connects the interior seamlessly with garden and pool, making it easy to drift between inside and out across the day.
Mountain views frame the entire outdoor experience. From the terrace, the landscape rolls away toward distant peaks, and the garden itself feels like an extension of the Lefkadian countryside rather than something imposed upon it. Ample parking ensures that visiting guests and rental cars create no logistical friction.
The villa includes twice-weekly maid service and pool maintenance every two to three days, removing the administrative burden from your stay so you can focus on rest and exploration.
Location: Lazarata and the Surrounding Area
Lazarata sits 15km inland from Nidri, Lefkada’s busiest resort town, yet feels remote enough to offer genuine seclusion. Two churches—the whitewashed Agios Dionissis and Agios Spiridonas—anchor the village centre, where locals still outnumber tourists. Surrounding Lazarata are sleepy villages like Asprogerakata, Kavallos and Pinakochori, each with their own small-scale charm and a handful of family-run tavernas serving local wine and mountain greens.
Beaches are closer than they appear. Kathisma Beach, 20km south, stretches with fine white sand and turquoise water, backed by reliable beach bars and loungers facing the Ionian archipelago. Pefkoulia Beach lies 18km away near the fishing village of Agios Nikitas, a sandy cove popular with families. Milos offers similar appeal, 16km distant. Porto Katsiki, one of the Mediterranean’s most photographed beaches, sits 25km away—golden sand backed by dramatic limestone cliffs that draw photographers and swimmers alike. Egremni Beach, 2.5km of unbroken sand also edged by cliffs, ranks among the island’s most striking coastal formations.
For water sports, Vassiliki and Agios Ioannis beaches specialise in windsurfing and kitesurfing, roughly 20km away. Nidri Beach itself, 12km south, operates with full facilities: watersports centre, loungers, parasols and multiple beach bars. Island hopping from Nidri is straightforward—ferries connect to Ithaca and Kefalonia within 30 minutes, while excursion boats visit smaller islets and secluded coves. The Geni peninsula, a traditional fishing village 15 minutes by car from Nidri or five minutes by boat, welcomes visitors to waterfront tavernas serving fresh catch.
Hiking dominates the local activity calendar. Skari Mountain, with centenarian oak trees, and Elati Mountain offer established trails. The Melissa Gorge and water springs at Dafni and Kersia provide natural objectives for walks. Small churches and ancient monasteries dot the landscape—discoveries for those who wander. Mountain biking tours showcase the island from different perspectives, with some routes extending to neighbouring Meganisi. Lefkada Earth winery welcomes visits and tastings, often combined with fresh seafood lunch in Sivota or Vassiliki.
The island’s wine culture runs deep. Local vineyards surround Lazarata itself, and red-roofed houses punctuate citrus plantations and olive groves. Karya, a charming village 8km away, is famous for its Karysaniki embroidery, once central to traditional Greek dress. Its main square fills with taverna tables beneath a sprawling plane tree—the ideal spot for long lunches.
Lefkada International Airport lies 25km away, roughly 30 minutes by car. Preveza Airport, serving the broader Epirus region, is 45km distant and occasionally offers competitive fares.
