Perched high above the sea in the village of Monticello in Upper Corsica, this elegant villa has everything you need for a quiet, coastal retreat. Inside, earthy tones mix with comfortable furniture that invites you to relax. We love the cosy living room, with leather sofas for you to kick back and watch a movie after a day enjoying all that this stretch of coastline has to offer. There’s no extravagance here, and there’s no attempt to distract from everything the outside space has to offer, which is something that really sets this villa apart. Step out onto your sun-drenched terrace and you’re met with a sea so blue, it’s hard to tell where the sea ends and the sky begins. Your private pool welcomes you in for a refreshing dip and is somewhere you could easily while away the hours as the sun warms your skin. When dry land calls, settle down on a sun lounger with your holiday read and get lost in a story. In such a peaceful setting, all you’ll hear is the quiet song of the birds in the surrounding trees. When you’re ready for a change of scenery, there are plenty of boutiques and local... markets to peruse, perhaps picking up some delicious local produce to take home and rustle up a dinner to enjoy alfresco under the stars.

About Corsica
Like a rugged jewel in the middle of the Mediterranean, there’s a reason Corsica is known as the “Isle of Beauty”. The French island boasts secluded beaches with glittering blue waters, picturesque cliff-side villages, and breathtaking mountain views. Corsica offers extremely diverse experiences, including snorkeling, wine tasting, and kayaking. For the keen hiker, there are hundreds of scenic trails, although shared with goats, cows, and other wildlife. A good place...
