Sunrock

Corfu


Run by the charming Magdalena, this complex, 30m from the sea, has dorms and doubles. It's faded on the outside, perhaps, but inside it's fresh and friendly. There's a great balcony for soaking up the sun, and a large bar full of travellers. Best of all, though, are the home-cooked, delicious meals made using produce from the owner's organic farm.
