Going to Corfu for first time ever in June. Staying at a Platinum hotel in Dassia.
We're only going for a week and wherever we go we love looking around rather than just sunbathing. We also prefer doing things ourselves rather than going on organised trips.
Any suggestions very welcome. We love walking ..... and cycling and DH and DD like horseriding.
We are quite happy to use public transport.
Thanks in advance.

Don't miss a walk around old Corfu town. I'd advise an early evening visit as it can be a hot place to be in the day-time. You can hop on a bus/coach locally and go for a while. Some good suggestions here

Horse riding from Ano Korakiana - not far from where you're staying. Wish I'd known it was there when i was staying nearby!

Tank you so much Phoebe. Some great info there - will let you know how we get on. Thanks again!
You're welcome, Flowerpower. Hope you have a great time, it's an island with a lot to offer
We had some lovely walks though and did some swimming but the only cycling we did was in the gym, because it was really hot. Had a fab time though and loved Corfu and found it all really relaxing.
We feel it is one of the best holidays we have ever had and the hotel, weather, scenery, people, etc etc were all great. It was 91F in the shade as we waited at Corfu airport this morning.
We visited Corfu town and really liked that too and spent most of one day there.
Thanks again.
Glad to hear you had a great holiday, Flowerpower. I love Corfu old town
A year on and we're thinking of going again. Anyone been to Gouvia? Can't remember going there last year, but did go to Corfu Town which we really liked.
