If sitting on a roof terrace enjoying a delicious seafood barbecue overlooking an azure sea with a blazing red sun setting on the horizon and the soft tinkling sound of distant goat bells in your ears is a prospect that’s too good to resist, then stay at the Hlazeika villa (below) on the Greek island of Kefalonia with Vintage Travel. Sleeping eight, the villa has a private infinity pool, access to shared tennis courts and watersports are close at hand. Children will love exploring the nearby beach and seeing the resident loggerhead turtles, while parents will enjoy the local markets and the little coastal village of Katelios, famed for its freshly caught seafood. From £950 per week.
