Facilities
Corsica is known as the ‘‘Île de Beauté’ with good reason, with hundreds of white sandy beaches and coves, cascading streams and waterfalls, fresh water pools and beautiful villages in the spectacular mountains. Villa U Tramontu is located in the bay of Ajaccio, one of the most attractive parts of the Corsican coastline.
Just 45 minutes south of Ajaccio Airport (32km), on the Cap de La Castagne, this villa enjoys extraordinary sea-views and magical sunsets. The villa is in a privately accessed residential area with other attractive villas dotted around, each one with their own privacy facing the sea and mountains. The area is quiet, yet there is plenty to do nearby if you wish to get out and explore. On a clear day you can see some of Corsica’s highest peaks, including Monte Cinto, the highest mountain in Corsica.
You can walk about 300m down to some rocks which you can swim from or the lovely Portigliolo beach (3.5km) is just five minutes by car, with a great year round watersports instructor plus equipment and boat hire. The idyllic Mare e Sole beach (9km), perfectly sheltered from the wind, is ideal for paddling and swimming in the clear blue waters. All along this scenic coastline you will find wonderful white sandy beaches, some only accessible by boat or foot. This region is very popular with hikers, there are some wonderful walks to suit all abilities.
Dine at Chez Mico (3km) with its lovely garden and tennis courts, a particularly nice place for families with its relaxed atmosphere or head up the coast to the famous La Bergerie (12km) for refined cooking in a sublime setting. There are also stunning fish restaurants right on the beach in this area, again often only accessible by foot, boat or 4x4 where you are rewarded by amazing fresh food in idyllic settings.
There is a mini-market within a few minutes by car or you can head up to the seaside resort of Porticcio (18km) for a greater choice of shops and larger supermarkets.
Head north to visit the island’s capital, Ajaccio (36km) in just over an hour and visit the city’s art galleries, markets, fantastic restaurants and hang out in the wide-open squares facing the sea. This is of course the birthplace of Napoleon Bonaparte and you can visit his childhood home. If you are feeling really adventurous you can take the charming train from Ajaccio to Corte for the day, passing incredible scenery as it winds through the forests and mountains, a spectacular and relaxing way to see the interior of this amazing island.
Alternatively, following the winding roads south to discover some beautiful villages such as Olmeto (42km) with its timeless charm and mountain scenery or Sartène (55km), a picturesque and unspoilt town steeped in tradition with a fascinating history, wonderful wines and more spectacular valley views.
