San Stefanos Online ~ North West Corfu

Hi everyone,

Can someone help me please.  I need the name of the lovely friendly owner and the postal address of "Two Stars".  What happened you see, was when my wife and I were in San Stef last year we got chatty with him and he gave us a bottle of "Two Star" red wine for us to take home.  Now the deal was that we would take a photograph of us both drinking the wine on Christmas Day and send him the photograph.  The first part wasn't a problem (drinking the cheeky red, that is) and indeed we took a lovely festive photo, but the address happened to be on the label of the bottle.  Yes, you're way ahead of me.  The bottle is presently being recycled and no doubt our "bottling" paths will cross again, unfortunately we forgot to write down the address.  Now we are returning to San Stef in June and I could give him the photo then, but a deals a deal.  Any help is much appreciated.

Rod. Hello Rod, Just reading the label on 2 Stars wine bottle. Address is 2 Stars Restaurant Grill Bar. AG Stefanos-Avliotes-Corfu. tel no 26630 52108. You will have to check international code. I will now sample the 2 stars red, Yammas

I am not sure how many people realise this but plans are being drawn up to build a huge Wind Farm just off shore from San Steph that will totally ruin the town and probably the tourist trade on which it depends.

As the Website below explains the proposal is to build 300 Wind Turbines each 550feet high, they will be situated around each of the Diapontian islands including Donkey Island just off the coast of San Steph.

This site if built will totally destroy the San Steph seascape, who will want to lie on the beach and relax in San Steph with the noise and flicker from 300 Wind Turbines for company? The famous San Steph sunset will be broken up by the line of these huge structures and the flicker at sunset will be cast across the town at dusk.

Construction of the Wind Farm will involve the movement of thousands of heavy plant and machinery and such a large industrial construction site will have a profound affect om the remote Corfu North East landscape.

If you look at the Website you will see a map of the proposed Wind Farm location and as you can see the closest turbines will be just half a mile from the beach and will tower 550feet above the sea, a similar height to Blackpool Tower.

If this goes ahead then many people including myself would be put off visiting San Steph and I am worried that it could destroy the tourist trade in the town.

If you are worried as well please sign the petition on the Website and conserve San Steph for the locals and tourists alike.

Thanks for the info Andy. We have got quite a few peope to sign the petition, even people who have never been to San Stef are signing it.

Hi. Has anybody got any info on these appts,e-mail address or photo,s they look really nice from outside so was wondering how much they charge for 2 weeks in August. Usually book next years holiday as soon as we get home but are waiting for easy jet prices from Bristol for August 2010.

   We have stayed in Athens appts for last 3 years and booked for next year Nikos charges 600 euros for the 2 weeks. Price not gone up but exchange rate makes big difference especially when you add cost of flights. Some peope we know have gone back to booking package.

Completed booking today for next June.

Flying out on Monday 7th June, staying for 11 nights, leaving Corfu on Friday 18th June. Easyjet from Bristol. Scheduled to leave BTL at 6.50am, so should be in SS by about 2.30pm. Fingers crossed.

Staying at Fedra Mare, completed booking with Dimitris this eve. Long time to wait, but already looking forward.

Maybe see some of you there. Booked again two weeks next year, a week later this time 30TH Aug. Staying at Nikos appartments, I just walk over the road and I am in Glenns. Not far to walk home after a night on the Mythos

Pembo............. Hope you know we don't mean this in any nasty way... Will have one with Glenn for you tomorrow night............ Don't worry ..... Glenn says it's ok for you to settle up next year LOL

No problem,tell Glenn to put  get u a drink and put it on my tab, just hope it is not a coach party

The reason I have so many flights is to try and get rid of all of the sausage, I think I will have to add another 1000 to that before I get rid of them all.

Will do Don, Genn's wil be our first port of call just after we arrive about 2.30pm. Never tried Yiannis last year but will try the gyros

Is that Nikos form the Athens Bar?

Yes Tony, this is our fourth year in Nikos apps. Used to stay in Athina
