Location – Doukades
Doukades is known for its warm and welcoming atmosphere, where genuine local hospitality is felt at every turn. The village square, surrounded by quaint cafés and traditional tavernas, is the perfect place to enjoy authentic Corfiot cuisine and immerse yourself in local culture.
While Doukades offers the peace and tranquillity of a small village, it is also conveniently located just a short drive from some of Corfu’s most popular attractions. The famous Paleokastritsa Beach, renowned for its waters and dramatic cliffs, is only 4 kilometers away. Corfu Town, with its rich history and vibrant nightlife, is also easily accessible.
Surrounded by lush hills, the village offers countless opportunities for hiking and exploring the natural beauty of the area. From walks through ancient olive groves to hikes up to nearby Angelokastro, a Byzantine castle perched high on a hilltop, nature lovers will find much to enjoy.
Doukades is home to several charming properties that capture the essence of traditional Corfiot architecture. Staying here offers a rare opportunity to live within a place steeped in history, while still enjoying all modern comforts.
