Book a villa on Kefalonia and enjoy free car hire

Complimentary car hire is the superb offer this January for those booking a villa on the Greek island of Kefalonia with Vintage Travel, which specialises exclusively in hand-picked houses with private pools in areas of local tradition and culture.

This great deal is valid with a week's rental of a choice of two houses which are new to the programme for 2009 - Valio and Vera are two bedroom (with aircon and private balcony), two bathroom sister properties sleeping four situated in the village of Vassilikades on the scenic Erissos peninsula in the northwest of the island.

In addition to a private pool, both houses have open and shaded terraces, in-built barbecue, landscaped grounds with lawn and enjoy fantastic views over the Ionian Sea. Within a 15-minute drive are a number of sandy coves - including the Blue Flag Myrtos Beach and the pine-fringed beaches of Agia Jerusalem and Alaties.

A week's rental - at both houses - leads in at £495 at the end of April, rising to £1,795 in peak season. Prices do not include return UK flights, but these can be arranged independently or by the company on request.

The complimentary car hire applies to entry level car hire only and, to qualify, bookings must be made by 31 January. Upgrades are available for an additional charge.
