Types of accommodation range from frills-free hotels and family-run guesthouses to simple B&Bs and self-catering apartments. And they are not all cooped up in one area but are spread around the island. The east coast north of the capital, around Ipsos and Dassia, is fun and popular with good sandy beaches; further north around Kassiopi, there are bays to explore as well as the charming fishing town itself. And if you really want to get off-the-beaten-track, head inland to the mountain villages.

And there’s a good, and cheap, bus service around the island. So, if you want a sunshine break, but don’t want to break the bank, use our guide to the best budget hotels on Corfu.
