Argyrades · Southern Corfu
A restored village home above the rooftops. In Argyrades, a village in the hills of southern Corfu that dates back to Byzantine times.
Antigoni
Antigoni sits in the heart of Argyrades and has been brought back with care. The lime-washed walls and the vaulted timber ceiling are original, the shelves set into the masonry are reclaimed wood, and from the balcony the rooftops fall away towards the hills.
Upstairs is a bright bedroom with a queen bed and its own bathroom. Downstairs, an open living room with a sofa leads to a full kitchen with a dining corner and a second bathroom, so the house works well for a couple or a small family. We added air-conditioning and fast Starlink internet. The bakery and tavernas are a few minutes on foot, and the sandy beaches of the south are ten minutes down the hill.

Argyrades
Argyrades dates back to Byzantine times, and its name is traditionally linked to the Argyros family of that empire. When pirates raided this coast, families left the plain for the high ground between three hills, and the settlement that grew there still shows it in lanes that bend out of sight and windows kept small and turned away from the sea. Under Venice, olive oil became Corfu's livelihood, 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.

Argyrades has roots in Byzantine times. Families moved up from the plain to escape pirate raids, and the bending lanes and small windows of the old quarter come from that need for defence.
Under Venice, olive oil became Corfu's livelihood, and Argyrades had a mill of its own. The groves still surround the village.
Around six hundred people live here, with a bakery, tavernas and neighbours. Argyrades is a working village rather than a resort.
Agios Georgios South, the dunes at Issos and the lagoon at Korission are all a short drive down the hill.
