    Simply amazing place - such a beautiful atmosphere and setting in the old village. The room was extremely well appointed and luxurious with lots of lovely touches. David and Marieke are absolutely wonderful hosts who know just how to make you feel welcome and looked after. The breakfast was brilliant, we loved the fact that they have tried very hard to use only local products. Very highly recommended, wish we could have stayed longer.

    The road up the mountain to the property needs to be repaired.

    Absolutely nothing to dislike.

    A beautiful house whose quiet elegance and charm was only matched by wonderful David and Marieke. Tremendous attention to detail in every way, but always unobtrusive, and the whole atmosphere was very welcoming. Our room was so comfortable, superb bed, fantastic bathroom. The best memory is of amazing breakfasts on the terrace, amidst the peace of the mountains. A memory to be treasured and brought out and dusted and enjoyed again. Thank you for a wonderful three night stay.

    The road, but unfortunatelly there is nothing they can do about it.

    David and Marieke are lovely hosts and they did a great job with the place. It feels like you went back in time, away from this modern world, loud and crowded. Peacefull place indoors and outdoors. The road up there is a little bumpy and quite long, but the destination is well worth it. We arrived late in the evening and after getting worried that we missed the road or we'd end in some abandoned place, we were surprised to find a welcoming cozy place like The Merchants' House. Entering the room was a total exciment for my 12 years old son to discover every corner if it and who bragged about being the one to say Yes to this accomodation, even if, on the map, it seemed far away from the beaches. Next morning, we were amazed with the "royal breakfast" and "royal service".🥰 We switched 3 accommodations during our 8 days vacation in Corfu, but The Merchants' was the best, the cleanest, the friendliest.🥰 Thank you, Marieke and David for making our stay sooooo so relaxing and exquisite.👑🎩

    It’s a first time in life that I didn’t dislike anything, but if I have to say something, it’s probably the wasps that like to come over if they smell delicious breakfast.

    The rear cassettes on the mountain bikes could have done with a couple of larger cogs for the hills. I don't know, maybe I just need bigger legs. And being 30 years younger certainly wouldn't do any harm. Also, wasn't so keen on the wasps, but I guess I am a visitor in their country and why should they have to share the Greek plum-jam with a short, bald Englishman. Even my wife would draw the line at that.

    Locations don't come much better, and neither do breakfasts. Being British, notoriously too lazy and inconsiderate to ever be arsed to learn another language, how wonderful to travel 1,500 miles and both your hosts have done all the hard work for you. Marieke, being Dutch, obviously spoke impeccable English. David, an Aussie, was inclined to struggle a bit through some of the longer sentences, but all the guests genuinely liked him and, for the better part, seemed to mostly understand him, even the two French couples.

    Very comfortable place with delicious breakfast and lovely owners. The Old Perithia is a magical and unique place. Old Venetian buildings ruins with climbers plants, butterflies, and bees. Feels like in a fairy tale. So calm and the mountain weather is so fragrant. The village center where situated all five tavernas look like a movie scene and the food is delicious as well.

    If you want to hike, it is better early morning as the place gets in summer rather hot.

    This is a unique accommodation, built and run with respect to the place, history and atmosphere in this beautiful nature. It is very romantic as well as clean, comfortable and well equiped. The mornings and evenings are marvelous, owners nice and very helpful. Breakfast is delicious and really relaxing. It is up tu 30 minutes drive to beautiful beaches. Lokal tavernas are nice, we especially enjoyed Foros.

    The best hosts ever. Awesome place to relax or take advantage of the surroundings for walks. Beautiful rooms with quality bathroom products and coffee machine and nice teas. Breakfast is just amazing along with afternoon get togethers to chill and relax. Plenty of beaches close by. A short walk to the square for dinner. Highly recommend The Merchant’s House whether you’re looking to be active or just chill in the natural surroundings.
