Spartia Wine Estate Greece

Positioned within five-acres of beautiful gardens including its very own vineyard, Spartia Wine Estate offers the picture of elegance and luxury, a truly unique holiday home away from the hustle and bustle, leaving only tranquillity for your stay. Throughout the property, every window, balcony and terrace boast unobstructed views of the ocean, mountain and gardens.
As you arrive, the estate is accessed through a private gate that leads onto a sweeping driveway through an array of exotic plants, trees and shrubs blending with what seems like hundreds of olive trees to guide you towards the front door. Every element of the property has been immaculately designed, leaving a feel of luxury and exclusivity to each living space. The rooms are arranged over three spacious floors, carefully blending both traditional and modern styles to create welcoming and warm spaces, with plenty of room for eighteen guests.
On the main floor, an impressive entranceway leads straight through into the open lounge with elegant patio doors opening the walls out onto a terrace. This space feels warm, with large sofas that you can sink down into, a writing desk and opulent features that add an element of indulgence. The kitchen is well-equipped for your use, although we imagine the views might distract from the cooking! There is a breakfast table in the kitchen, as well as a separate dining room – a light and airy space, perfect for family meals when you want to sit inside. The kitchen leads out onto an enclosed barbecue area, with covered verandas and relaxed seating where you can feel the hours slipping by in a state of complete relaxation!
The main residence has five bedrooms and four bathrooms. One of the rooms is on the main floor, with the rest upstairs. On the lower level, the property has been divided into three separate living apartments, all with their own kitchen, living space, bathroom and bedroom, ideal for guests who desire a little extra privacy. Each of these independent suites can accommodate 2-4 guests, perfect for large groups wanting to visit this breath-taking island.
As you can imagine, every element of this property is drawing your gaze outside to the beautiful views. Whether you are on the private balcony watching the sea move in the distance, or on the terrace catching the olive trees swaying in the fresh sea breeze, there is space for everyone to rest and restore, enjoying the magic of nature. Spartia Wine Estate offers a fully-equipped outdoor kitchen and barbecue as well as plenty of seating for dining under the stars. Whether you are dipping in the pool, reading a book in the garden, strolling around the vineyard, or falling asleep under a veranda, every corner and angle of this property is breath-taking, with a new view in each space – a truly unique and unforgettable holiday home! Kefalonia is a beautiful island in the Ionian Sea, west of mainland Greece. Known for its sandy bays and rugged landscapes, this is one of our favourite Greek islands. Everywhere you go the atmosphere is completely relaxed, with stunning scenery that varies across the island from charming seaside towns with bustling restaurants on the waterfront, to rugged mountains shooting up from the seawater with olive trees and native plants adding a soft touch to the rock. You can hike, cycle, run and amble about, exploring the beauty of this place at your own pace.
Spartia Wine Estate is located in the sleepy hillside village of Spartia, on the southwest side of Kefalonia. This charming area feels like a small slice of authentic Greece, with traditional tavernas, rustic houses, a church with a bell tower and a small square at the heart. Spartia is perfect for those looking to escape the hustle and bustle, a tranquil and peaceful spot for a relaxing holiday away.
The villa itself sets the scene for a picturesque holiday, with a million and one photo opportunities, trying to capture the property’s elegance and the stunning views all in one! It is set within 5 acres of beautiful gardens including its very own vineyard, so before even straying from the villa’s grounds you have plenty to explore!
When you are ready to visit the beautiful coast, you have the option to walk or drive. Many visitors opt to amble down from the village through the lush countryside, popping out at sea. Here, there are a couple of sheltered beaches either side of a little fishing jetty, you can choose a side, with a mix of sand and shingle and rocky outcrops that fall into the sea, perfect for snorkelling and exploring the world beneath the water. There is a beachfront restaurant serving up delicious food including fresh fish, Greek salads and many of your Mediterranean delicacies, perfect for a lunch with a view!
From the villa, it is only about a 20-minute drive to the capital of Kefalonia, Argostoli. You can head to Kabanas Square, climbing to the top of the bell-tower to get spectacular views across the town, before dining in one of the many local eateries. Slightly further away, near the town of Sami, you will find Kefalonia’s top two sights – the Drogarati Cave and Lake Melissani, both worth a visit offering you a rainbow of stalactites to explore!
