OMG What a year it has been!
Now the work really begins. We have to start getting Richmond Villa ready for 2025 rentals.
What a year we have had. We have had some lovely guest who have all looked after the villa and we look forward to welcoming them back in the future. Even our Greek neighbours have commented about our lovely guest.
So the work has started. I have been cutting back the trees in the back garden. Lots of weeding to do and cutting back the plants. I have packed the garden furniture away and wrapped the Air hockey table to protect from the winter weather. A busy week but unfortunately part of the week has been laying on the sofa as I hurt my back. But all better now. We will be looking at getting the decking put around the pool which will be a great addition to the pool for 2025. This is the idea we have below.

Inside the villa, there will be some painting going on but the villa is in great condition so not too much to do. It will be more about soft furnishings as I plan to have all new curtains.
Then we will be working on our other property which we plan to also rent out. Not sure this will be in 2025 but will definitely be in 2026.
If you are looking for a holiday in 2025 now is the time to book to avoid disappointment. We believe you would not be disappointed with Richmond villa so check out our website today. You can book and secure your booking for as little as £200. You can book through paypal or direct to me. You can also pay by credit card and in instalments.

Coming to the end of the season at Richmond villa

As the rental season draws to an end in Kefalonia, Richmond villa also starts to get ready to close the doors until 2025.
This year Richmond Villa was late coming to the rental market following a lot of hold ups with buying the villa and getting our website up and running. So we finally started to advertise in May 2024.
The Island was not as busy as it usually is and this was mainly down to expensive flights from the UK to Kefalonia. Hopefully the airlines will realise that charging crazy prices means less people will travel. The feedback we had from people was the price of Richmond Villa was good value for money, but the flights made it out of some peoples reach. So with that in mind we decided that our 2024 prices will not be going up for 2025. We will be offering an early booking discount too.
So what have we been getting up to at Richmond villa in 2024!
We are constantly looking at ways to improve Richmond villa to make it a luxury stay for all of our guess. Which showed in our 5* review on Booking.com and AirBnB. Along with the reviews we received on our website. We pride ourselves on making sure Richmond villa is in pristine condition for all of our guess. Therefore after every guess leaves Richmond villa undergoes a full clean and we replace any breakages or damage.
The garden has been our biggest achievement this year . We have moved rocks, soil and laid a hard standing for the pool and not to mention all the new fruit trees, Olive trees and plants. We are excited to see the garden mature in the coming years. We are lucky enough to live on the Island which allows us to fully maintain the Villa and grounds. It has been a very expensive year with buying garden furniture, plants, the pool and much more. It certainly has been a busy year for us at Richmond Villa.

Getting out and about
Whenever we go on holiday we are not the sort of people who like to sit on the beach, especially as I really do not like sand. We like to explore and get a car to make sure we really get to enjoy the country we are visiting, we would recommend our guess do the same in order to fully appreciate the Island. So now that we live here we are amazed how many new places and beaches we are finding. Just follow the Greek people to find the best beaches. They do not go for the tourist beaches but they go to the prettiest and some times the most difficult to get too. We are always asking ourselves " how did they get down there".
We have found lakes, beaches, great restaurants and lovely locals. We have also managed to make some lovely friends too. We have a totally different life style now that we live in Kefalonia. We have 2 properties and both in great locations. Richmond villa is in Agia Irini and surrounded by mountains and trees. If you are looking for peace and quiet and want to explore the Island then Richmond villa is the place to consider. We have Katelios a short drive from the villa, lovely place to visit with bars and restaurants. In the other direction we have Poros and then Skala. Poros is made up of three parts, you have a port one end and then restaurants, shops and a very long beach which is around 2km long, so it is never full. The beach is mainly pebbles but the water is a beautiful blue crystal colour and the locals are great too. Skala is ideal for shopping, restaurants and a sandy beach. Skala is a busy resort. But if you did not want to go out then you can relax around the pool at Richmond Villa. At least you will not have to put your towels out early in the morning to beat the rush as the sun loungers are only for the Richmond villa guest.
Kaminia Beach and Tartarooga restaurant.
Wow this was a great find and we took family and friends there too. Its a restaurant and bar on the edge of the beach with plenty of parking. A car is definitely a must. The food is great too and great value for money. The staff are friendly too. Although I yet to find any rude staff in any of the restaurants I have been too.

Check out our top 10 places to visit on our website. However, there are so many places to visit that are all great places, there are just to many to mention.
So the wind down from the season of 2024 begins now that we are in October. Sadly the Island shuts down due to no direct flights but you can still get to Kefalonia by flying into Athens and then changing flights to get over to Kefalonia. The weather remains warm and the skies a beautiful blue. If anyone wanted to rent the villa over the winter we would open the doors again.
