Hi all,


I hope you might be able to help me with your recommendations and experiences of Greece. We are planning to go to Greece this summer but don't know exactly where to go? Which parts do you recommend? I really don't like places that are heaving with tourists. Just a quiet island with a beach or a cove with nice restaurants and bars.. We've never been before so I don't know where to start. Any recommendations or input really welcome.


Thanks,

Greece is becoming popular again. I run a retreat out on the beautiful island of Kefalonia. I?m not pushing the retreat, but you are welcome. However the island is stunningly beautiful with many secluded beaches, green mountains, delightful people, Turtles & plenty of sunshine. It?s not too busy & the best beaches are on the southern part of the island. We are above a small beach 3 Kms down a farm track with our friends who run a delightful taverna with sublime sunsets & simple food & wine. It only takes 3 1/2 hours from Gatwick

Plenty of places to rent a boat or take a tour round the island

Good luck


Nigel

Thanks for this Midivydale. I have been looking into Paxos and it seems so beautiful. I will look into Kefalonia. Is it touristy? I really hate large crowds of people or too touristy beaches. I liked paxos because it seems rather quiet there. My daughter is 8 and likes swimming and reading so thought of booking a villa. Where did you stay in Kefalonia?

Maybe you could pm me. Many thanks.



Also Nigel, Will you be able to pm me more info? Thanks for getting in touch.

    • But I don't think that was what you meant, was it? But he can hardly be held responsible for what somebody else did! Just discovered I forgot to post the above  last night, and now it's overtaken by long posts.  I don't have sufficient knowledge  to counter some of what has been said above, some of which appears to be opinion rather than facts, so it would be pointless for me to say anything else.
    • I am sure our lovely Evri delivery team, who do a firkin hard job, take the time between drops to read the East Dulwich Forum 🤫
    • For every person like OP that moans their doorbell was rung and there was a knock on the door, there's someone else moaning that they didn't hear the delivery drivers. If you've ever done delivery work you'll know that loads of people's bells don't work. The delivery drivers probably goes to a hundred doors a day: press bell, knock door, drop package, move on. If you don't like delivery drivers, insist on delivery by Royal Mail where the workers have wages and a union - or just stop ordering shit online that's artificially cheap. But most of us (me included) don't want that
    • If someone comes to my house and bangs my door and slams my gate, I'd speak to them about it nicely and ask if they would please not do that. And then subsequently less nicely if they keep doing it, ending in reporting them.  We don't slam doors at home and I don't put up with that either. I can see us moving to a culture where we bribe drivers to be nice by tipping them, but we shouldn't have to. It's not necessary - does not matter if they are on minimum wage or not, or if society means that delivery services are outsourced or whatever reason anyone would like to concoct.
