As the sun sets on another year Corfu has once again worked its magic - from the expectation and joy of spring with wild flowers, church bells, walks in the mountains and butterflies galore through the endless days of summer with the chorus of cicadas and long lazy lunches in idyllic bays to the glow of autumn with warm seas, ripe figs and a sense of timelessness as the nets are laid out and the olives harvested

To everyone who has shared this magical place with us - thank you, Happy New Year and here’s to making lots more memories in 2025

Looking out towards the tiny island of Pontikonisi, better known as Mouse Island - you’ll see this little island as you land in Corfu - you can visit by boat, the crossing takes minutes and is just a few euros, when you land you climb the steps from the jetty to the 13thC church of Pantokrator, which is lovely - peek inside, light a candle, have a drink at the tiny cafe if it’s open

Wishing you a very Merry Christmas …

We spent our first Christmas in Corfu almost twenty years ago - I don’t think there was a Christmas tree in sight and barely a bauble or Christmas light, maybe I’m misremembering that but the contrast to England was striking as Easter is the big Orthodox celebration, we decorated the house with greenery and took the kids to Jumbo to pick up some presents - our youngest wanted a broom, the type you’d use to sweep the house, which he dangled precariously out of the car window all the way home sweeping the road as he went

There was snow on the mountains in Albania and an icy wind, we walked, we picnicked, we roasted chestnuts on the fire and dipped our toes in the water. We did find a turkey but I remember the wild boar hanging in the butchers in Corfu Town

It was a Christmas that was all about simple pleasures which for me is what Corfu is still all about

Wherever you are and whatever you’re doing have a wonderful time

Autumn vibes in Doukades - a little village on the west coast with traditional tavernas in the square, just ten minutes from Paleokastritsa, a Sunday favourite for us then maybe a visit to the monastery to see the sun set because you know I love it there

Autumn views in San Stefanos - the taverna is closed and the village is in it’s out of season slumber but we often picnic here regardless - bread, cheese, olives, a little local red wine

All put to bed ready for the winter …

We’ve had the most amazing run of good weather for the last few weeks - deep blue skies, warm sunny days just getting cooler at night but it’s due to change this week, for a few days at least

The most beautiful day - love these little beaches just around the headland in Kassiopi, the water is such an amazing colour

In ‘the season’ there are sun loungers you can rent but I prefer it just like this …

Corfu how we like it best - sunny, quiet, calm - October really is wonderful …

This is the little beach of Chouchoulio just a few minutes walk from the pretty harbour at Kouloura which is our closest bay, you can pick up the coastal path from here and either go to the next beach, which is my favourite, or carry on to Kerasia then maybe San Stefanos

Kalimera - have you seen the weather forecast …

You can’t guarantee the weather in October but when it’s good, it’s usually really good - we’ve been coming for October half term for almost twenty years ago, I can remember one trip when Zeus was very angry - throwing thunderbolts - we circled and circled the island but couldn’t land, a diversion to Athens, an overnight stay and an impromptu trip to the newly opened Acropolis Museum before getting to Corfu in time for a birthday party by which time the skies were blue

Early evening in Kalami - too busy for us in the summer but oh my goodness look at it now, how wonderful must it have been when Lawrence and Nancy Durrell lived here in the 1930’s …
