The road is not for the faint hearted 20 minutes of narrow bumpy asphalt road and then a minute's flat walk to the house through the woods. Once you are there it is paradise, full immersion in nature. The house is in major part the restoration of a rustico, or old olive barn of 77 mq. It opens with a spectacular terrace of 36 mq overlooking the sea and the woods, you can see for miles perched on the top of the valley. In the morning you can see Corsica directly in front of you.
