Kefalonia almost feels like we have "come home" each time we arrive. It is the most relaxed, laid back friendly country we have ever been. There may be small areas that seem to have the bad side of the UK, i.e. drunkun idiots, but this is really a tiny element and it is so easy to avoid any of this, like Lassi.
There is so much beauty on this island and after the fires we need to support the locals as much as we can to try and get things back to normal. The local food can be excellent in some areas and "out of tins" in others. It really is down to the holiday maker to experience as much as possible. In Skala, most restaurants are good with some excellent, like the Old Village. The Pines has a great reputation but when we ate there we received frozen fish (uncooked) and unhelpful service! My daughter loved a local puppet show in the local school playground (not in english), great family fun. and real community spirit!
Respect the island and stop the property developers from destroying it (were the fires an accident?).Become part of Kefalonia, respect the locals, treat them well and they will treat you well. No matter where you go you can enjoy but for us we love the South, absolutely fantastic.
