Corsica - Maquis

Located at the end of a little wooded road, backed by the fragrant scrubland, this wood-built house fits in perfectly with its environment. Rooted in the fertile Corsican land, its rustic appearance betrays a luxury that doesn't shy away from simplicity. And that places great emphasis on natural materials: stone, wood, glass. The house is the area of Lecci, 4 kilometers from the village and 6 kilometers from the sea. The most beautiful beaches of southern Corsica, like the one at Saint-Cyprien, are just a short drive away. However, the 10x5m saltwater swimming pool offers a very private alternative to the beach. Absolute peace and quiet and an immediate sense of well being. Having lunch on the large terrace, surrounded by the heady scents of the scrubland and the song of the cicadas, is pure joy.

Nature also invites itself indoors, via the large glass windows and a central courtyard leading to the vast airy spaces on the upper floor. The living areas open on to this bright and welcoming space. The decor is resolutely contemporary, with all modern conveniences for a very comfortable life. The three bedrooms are air-conditioned. A gas barbecue is available for use. Linens, sheets, and towels are provided. The beds will be freshly made on arrival. Weekly housekeeping is included with the rental, along with cleaning on departure. You will find toiletries in the bathrooms and a gourmet food basket in the kitchen. Optional services are available upon request at reservation.

During the last century, Lecci was a famous pilgrimage site, as evidenced by its rich historical heritage and church with magnificent stained glass windows. The village center, 4 km from the house, is extremely lively at the height of the season. The weekly market is a perfect occasion to discover the delicious local products. For those who love Corsican wines, the Lecci area has two large and highly regarded vineyards: Torraccia and Fior di Lecci. The villa is situated 6 km from the splendid San Ciprianu beach with its lovely bay, crystal clear water and fine sand? The Pinarellu beach, listed as one of the 20 most beautiful beaches in the world, is just 12 km away. In addition, Porto-Vecchio and its Citadel, shops, farmers market, and numerous restaurants are only 13 km from the house. The Figari airport is 30 kilometers away.
