Greece
Whether you’re looking for sun-drenched relaxation, breathtaking architecture, adrenaline-fuelled outdoor pursuits, a vibrant social scene, mouth-watering local dishes or simply an exploration of the roots of Western culture, a holiday in Greece is a winner on all counts. In terms of ‘things to see’ there is certainly no shortage, and ancient sites like the Acropolis, the oracle in Delphi, the temples of Olympia and the Palace of Knossos are just some of the must-visit places. And the cities of Athens and Thessaloniki are bursting with food, history and nightlife - perfect for a Greek city break. Choose from cottages for family holidays, unique romantic getaways, and villas for large groups.
The largest of all the Greek islands at the southern most point of Greece, Crete has no less than 1000km of coastline dotted with numerous coves, bays and peninsulas
A holiday villa in the Cyclades is the perfect choice for holiday-makers who want dazzling scenery, entertainment, history, variety, and to see the sun glistening off picturesque white houses with bougainvillea lined windows.
Relaxation or adventure, beach life or culture - you’ll get all this and more on a holiday in the Ionian Islands.
Often overlooked in favour of the islands, the Greek mainland has so much to offer the visitor and is scattered with beautiful holiday rentals. It is a wonderful combination of sea, and mountain, with stunning nature found all over the country.
The most southern peninsular of Greece, the Peloponnese is a very beautiful and popular holiday rentals destination, steeped in history and folklore, and home to many of Greece’s best archaeological sites.
Naturally the Greek islands are some of the biggest draws and there are far too many to mention! Destinations like Corfu and Crete are classic choices, but you could also experience the romance of Santorini, the volcanic ruggedness of the Cycladic Islands, the unspoiled authenticity of Hydra or the novel-worthy scenery of Kefalonia. From its white sand beaches, wildlife and water sports to its amphitheatres, forests and tavernas serving coffee and ouzo, Greece is a wonderful holiday destination which deserves every bit of its popularity.
