With thumping nightlife, staggering sea views and easy access to a world-class beach, Ipsos holidays are Greek culture in an ouzo glass.
Tip-top location
Overlooking a curved bay on the east coast of the Greek island of Corfu, Ipsos is a mecca for beach-lovers and partygoers. The Golden Mile Beach runs from the town up to Pyrgi, nicknamed the 'painted village'. From here, you're less than a 30-minute drive to the capital.
Hit up the capital
Whatever time of day, you can zip your way down the coast by car and be in Corfu Town in half an hour. Wander around the two historic fortresses, grab a coffee and stroll through the old quarter's cobblestone alleyways. If you've got extra time to play with, hop on a ferry to Vidos Island.
Ipsos backcountry
In the line-up for Corfu's best patch of countryside, Ipsos is a hot contender. Behind the party streets is a vast open space, with paths weaving their way through sleepy hillside villages and woodlands. Strap on your hiking boots and take a crack at Mount Pantokrator – the island's highest peak.
