Mousses Villas, Lefkada Greece, MWT
Mousses Crèche & Children's Club Lefkada, Greece.
The aim at Mousses is simple: family holidays without the fuss, a place that is as relaxing for adults as it is fun for children, in one of the most child-friendly destinations in Greece. Judging by the number of guests who return year after year, it’s an approach that resonates with many.
The villas are set in lush, sub-tropical gardens, shaded by venerable old olive trees and with plenty of grassy space for play. Some houses are detached, others semi-detached, but each offers its own private terrace plus the home-from-home comfort and space that are so key to a holiday with young children. The atmosphere is tranquil but not hushed, with the gentle air of sociability that is part and parcel of being a parent of little ones. Our own privately-run crèche and children’s club sits in the same grounds, offering flexible morning or afternoon sessions run by British NNEB-qualified nannies.
In the heart of the gardens there’s a big, sparkling swimming pool, with plenty of sun loungers for the grown-ups, and a shaded, shallow pool for toddlers and non-swimmers. The bar and taverna (Greek with a modern twist) next to the pool offer an indulgent restaurant service. Better still, the child-friendly menu means there’s absolutely no need to cook if you don’t want to (or have food delivered to your villa at no extra charge). If you’re feeling sociable you can join the barbecue evenings organised by the exceptionally hospitable owners Eleni and her son Zois, or alternatively take advantage of the twice-weekly optional evening crèche service and slip away into nearby Lefkada town for a quiet dinner (both evening sessions are included in the full-day option, the half-day option includes a single evening session, for full details please refer to our Malvern World Travel
Many of our families spend almost an entire week at Mousses without leaving the grounds, but it would be a shame to miss a late afternoon on the beach at nearby Agios Ioannis. For those who can stretch bed time a little later, this is the perfect spot to linger over a glass of something perfectly chilled at sunset, while the children let off any end-of-day steam playing on the beach.
Our Hatchlings Crèche accepts infants from 6 months to 3 years and the Turtles Children’s Club accepts children from 4-10 years and operates five days per week TO BOOK CONTACT MALVERN WORLD TRAVEL ON 01684 562406 or malvernworldtravel@hotmail.co.uk or YOU CAN VISIT US AT malvernworldtravel.co.uk
