Location

The holiday takes place on the west coast of Kefalonia, the largest of the Ionian islands and by far one of the most beautiful. Characterised by a rugged, virtually untouched interior and a coastline made up of limestone cliffs, white-sand beaches and small fishing villages.

Your holiday starts when you’re picked up from the airport in Kefalonia and taken to your accommodation for the duration of your week here, situated just 2km from the centre of the island’s capital, Argostoli.

At the end of the week, you will be transferred back to the airport from your hotel.
