Secluded and peaceful mountain retreat

A lovely hillside development of purpose built rooms in the mountains. We received a warm reception. The room lovely and inventive in its design. We really loved it. A small terrace outside was where our breakfast was served, and this was superb. The secluded location served to teem with songbirds, I've rarely heard so many welcome the start of the day. A perfect location, a short drive from Corte where we had dinner in the evening.

Just as described on the website- a quiet place in a small village with stone cabins. The breakfast with croissants bread cheese yogurt juice and the best coffee ever was brought to our patio every day. There were 3 other cabins that faced the open courtyard. The shower was excellent and we appreciated the microwave sink stove and refrigerator as well as drying racks in the bathroom. It seemed very close to Corte. We ate out one night with a lovely 30 minute walk down the hill to a restaurant but otherwise enjoyed bread cheese and charcuterie. Very nice owner.

Très bien pour courtes escapades

Petite maisonnette atypique dans un sous bois pentu, très calme. Dommages que la météo n'était pas au RDV, nous n'avons pas pu profiter de la terrasse extérieure, et l'humidité se faisait un peu sentir à l'intérieur. Très bon accueil et petit déjeuner excellent. Le parking privé est difficile d'accès, il est préférable de se garer sur le parking du village.

Struttura meravigliosa!

Le 4 casette che compongono la struttura si trovano immerse nel verde e nella pace. L'albergatore ci ha accolti in maniera deliziosa, gentilissimo e pronto a dare consigli per dove mangiare. La colazione al mattino ti viene portata direttamente in stanza ed è buonissima. Ci saremmo tornati ma era già tutto prenotato!
