About this property
Prestige Villas | NISSAKI | Stunning Renovated Bakery with Pool & Great Views
The Old Bakery – Exclusive to Prestige Villas, Katavolos, Nissaki, Corfu
Exclusive to Prestige Villas, The Old Bakery is a beautifully restored four-bedroom country house with an additional detached guest cottage set beside the pool. As its name suggests, this charming property was once the local bakery serving the pretty hillside hamlet of Katavolos. Today, it has been lovingly transformed into a unique and characterful home by its British owner, combining authentic Corfiot architecture with modern comforts.
Nestled amidst tranquil olive groves overlooking Nissaki, The Old Bakery exudes rustic charm and timeless elegance. The original section of the house retains its flagged stone floors, metre-thick walls, and low-beamed ceilings, evoking the warmth and history of a bygone era. In contrast, the newer extension brings light and space, featuring a bright contemporary shower room with dual rainfall showers and a fresh, modern design.
Throughout the house, views from the picture-perfect windows frame the landscape like a painting, rolling hills, silver-green olive trees, and the glistening Ionian Sea beyond.
During the warmer months, guests can retreat to the covered veranda that spans the rear of the house, a peaceful space ideal for leisurely lunches or evening meals around the large solid-wood dining table, followed by relaxed moments on the comfortable sofas as the sun sets over the bay.
Below the house lies the impressive 10m x 5m swimming pool, surrounded by stone terraces and lush tropical foliage. Completely private, this area offers breathtaking views down the valley to the azure sea below. Comfortable sun loungers rest beneath a shaded pergola, providing the perfect spot to unwind during the heat of the afternoon.
Beside the pool sits the Guest Cottage Suite (available at a supplement), offering a serene retreat with a king-size bed and en-suite shower room—ideal for couples seeking extra privacy.
With its harmonious blend of old-world charm and modern style, The Old Bakery is a true gem,a peaceful Corfiot haven where history, comfort, and natural beauty meet.
Please note: The Guest Cottage carries a supplement.

Thoroughly enjoyable stay at The Bakery. We even got used to the drive up the steep winding road to the villa. Every amenity you could hope for and, even though we ran out of water on a few occasions, it didn't affect our enjoyment. The Villa is beautiful and the setting is stunning. To wake up to the most amazing view every morning is really a major plus for us. It was plenty big enough for 10 of us to stay at without feeling cramped at all (the extra room in the guest cottage was idyllic for 2 x 20 yr old girls!).
Highly recommend.

Just amazing! The best villa and holiday ever!
Bakery is a gem of a villa. Nested within olive groves up a hill overlooking the central bay of Corfu, the view has to be seen to be fully appreciated! The villa is equipped to a remarkable standard with obvious great pride. And the pool is outstanding!

Gorgeous Villa
The Old Bakery is a gorgeous villa, well-equipped and superbly managed by Prestige. Any issues were dealt with promptly. The views are absolutely stunning (the long and winding road to reach the villa is definitely worth the effort). The only downside during our stay in July was an over abundance of wasps who came every day to drink from the pool, making entry and exit a hazardous and unpleasant proposition.

Beautiful Villa with Stunning Views
Dear Jane
Just wanted to drop you a line to say how much we enjoyed the Old Bakery. Our friends booked this holiday so was a little apprehensive, but on arrival we were blown away with the house in every way, the views are to die for. It was everything you need for a first class family holiday, extremely clean with every convenience you would require. The crowning glory of this lovely house in the stunning pool area which was cleaned every second day and kept immaculate by the lovely pool guy. Loved the guest cottage with the old brass bath in the corner. The only blip was a plumbing problem which was attended to immediately by your staff. All in all a perfect holiday in a perfect villa in a perfect location. Looking to return next year so we'll be in touch soon.
Many thanks for all your help in finding us the perfect holiday.
Kind regards

Stunning villa with amazing view!
Nothing was too much trouble when it came to booking The Bakery. Jane organised everything for us, including car hire, airport transfers and a private chef. The villa is situated up a steep road but the views when you reach the top are well worth the climb. The Bakery has been beautifully refurbished and the owner has provided everything you could need for a home from home stay. A really special holiday in a gorgeous location.

An amazing week had at the awesome Old Bakery!
What an amazing week we had in a beautiful house in a stunning location. Spent the last week of Summer with our children before they returned to Uni and we were all in paradise - from the stunning views, the gorgeous pool, the outdoor cinema, music systems and the luxurious interiors - we didn't want to leave! The house was so well appointed and we rarely left the comfort of our own surroundings - only once for a supermarket visit, twice to the sea and a couple of times to eat out in the evening - we really could have stayed for ever.
A very easy booking experience and helpful assistance when there if we needed it - we would thoroughly recommend a visit to The Old Bakery and will hopefully be back again soon!
