The story
A private villa above the Ionian Sea at Kanoni
Villa Sylva stands among forest at Kanoni, once the heart of Corfu, with the Ionian Sea in front and Pontikonissi, Mouse Island, in view. Lawns and flowering shrubs surround the house, which has Moroccan marble floors and sliding glass doors that open the living rooms onto the terrace. It was a location for the 1981 Bond film For Your Eyes Only.
For a wedding, the garden of about 580 square metres suits a ceremony or drinks, and the pool area of about 1,075 square metres takes the long dinner tables. The main terrace measures 70 square metres, the pool 200, and there are five alfresco dining areas, a pool house and a private 16-metre pier with direct access to the sea. Weddings run from April to November. The villa is hired dry, so you choose your own caterer and suppliers.
