Authentic Argyrades
Restored village homes in southern Corfu

On the square
The Kafenion
A kafenion is being built on the central square of Argyrades, the middle of the village. When it opens it will do what a village kafenion has always done: coffee in the morning, a glass in the evening, neighbours at the next table. You will be able to stay at the Kafenion too. Details coming soon.
Argyrades
The Village
Argyrades is an old village whose name is traditionally linked to the Argyros family of Byzantium. Local tradition tells of families leaving the exposed plain for the high ground between three hills, safe from raids from the sea, and the village still shows it in lanes that bend out of sight and windows kept small and turned away from the coast. Under Venice, olive planting spread across the island and oil came to shape Corfu's economy and landscape, and in 1716 men from Argyrades joined the defence of the island against the Ottoman siege. The old olive mill a short walk from Antigoni is the next home we are restoring.

Why Stay With Us
Older Than It Looks
Argyrades is an old village whose name is traditionally linked to the Argyros family of Byzantium. Local tradition tells of families leaving the exposed plain for the high ground, safe from raids from the sea, and the bending lanes and small windows of the old quarter come from that need for defence.
Olive Country
Under Venice, olive planting spread across the island and oil came to shape Corfu's economy and landscape. Argyrades had a mill of its own, and the groves still surround the village.
A Village That Still Works
Around six hundred people live here, with a bakery, tavernas and neighbours. Argyrades is a working village rather than a resort.
Ten Minutes to the Beach
Agios Georgios South, the dunes at Issos and the lagoon at Korission are all about ten minutes away by car.
