Wir kamen als Familie und wurden von der Einstellung, die Begrüßung geblendet, und natürlich das Haus, das die Schönheit ihrer Wirte verkörpert. Das fühlt sich unendlich ganz einfach. Die Fähigkeit, für jede Person zurückzuziehen oder in einer freundlichen Atmosphäre rund um eine Terrasse im Schatten von Hasel zu leben. Dieses Haus in den Berghängen hat einen Charme ...

It has been an amazing and relaxing experience in full contact with the nature. You definitely need a car to explore locations nearby and also to get into closest town for basic things. The host was lovely and helpful, and we've enjoyed our stay in this place.

Angelica is a very welcoming hostess, and gave us a full tour of the house, showing us everything we needed. After we had had a decent interval to settle in and refresh ourselves, she returned and we had a longer conversation that included things to do an see around Corte. We didn't have time to take up all her recommendations, but everything we did do was as good as she promised. Her uncle and the local puppy were also very welcoming, despite the fact that we had no common language. The apartment is charming, it feels very roomy with a large living area. Saliceto is a great place to stay if you are looking for something totally different to the big city; a very pretty little village. It is a long drive to go out to dinner; I recommend taking advantage of the kitchen and self-catering. The village is easy to find, and then just ask someone to point out Angelica's place.

I have to thank for nice welcome by Angelica's uncle who picked us up in the village when we got lost in the night :) even if we didn't understand to each other, he was so nice :) his dog as well :) Thanks also you Angelica for your navigation by a phone :) The apartment was very clean and prepared. Have a nice Angelica!

Abbiamo avuto un ottimo soggiorno. Angelika e la sua famiglia (compresi cane :-)) ha un caloroso benvenuto. La casa è pittorescamente situato nella periferia di un villaggio. La posizione è molto tranquilla e lontano da ogni frenesia. Abbiamo apprezzato molto il tempo. Pulizia e servizi sono stati perfetti.

English: We were really happy to be hosted by Laurence, she is so charming, hospitable and helpful. You can't wish for a better hostess. The accommodation itself is located in a tiny calm village in the mountains. It's spacious, light, clean, homy, and decorated with some old-time traditional objects. There's everything necessary to have meals at home: pans, saucepans, plates, cutlery, coffee machine, a toaster and a fridge. There's even a washing machine, but we simply didn't need it. Near the house there's a nice pizza (snack)restaurant (it's open only in July and August) but the food is simple but delicious and the owner is absolutely adorable!a little bit farther there's a restaurant where you can try some traditional dishes, most of the ingredients are homemade (and it's open throughout the year) the prices are more than reasonable. There was no wi-fi connection, but we were ready for it as well as for a narrow mountain road with lots of turns to get to the village from the main motorway. The village is just 45 minutes away from the famous l'île Rousse by car, and 35 minutes from Corte. If you love mountain views, piece and quiet and looking for a nice place to stay at a good price, Laurence place is a perfect choice:) Russian: Хозяйка дома, Лоранс, настолько очаровательная и гостеприимная, что с первой минуты мы себя почувствовали как у друзей (общались только на французском, поэтому не могу сказать, говорит ли Лоранс на английском). Сам домик находится в маленькой тихой деревне в горах. В нашем распоряжении был верхний этаж дома с отдельным входом. В доме есть кухня, гостиная, две спальни, совмещенные душ и туалет. В доме очень чисто, а на кухне есть все необходимое, чтобы позавтракать/поужинать дома: сковородки, кастрюльки, тарелки, столовые приборы, кофеварка, тостер и холодильник. Есть даже стиральная машина, но она нам не понадобилась. Из около открывается шикарный вид на горы. Рядом с домом есть хорошая домашняя пиццерия (открытая только в июле и августе), еда простая, но очень вкусная, а хозяин совершенно очарователен!В соседней деревне (примерно 1 км от дома) есть ресторан, где можно попробовать традиционные блюда из продуктов собственного производства (и он открыт круглый год), цены более чем приемлемые. В доме не было Wi-Fi, но мы были к этому готовы, как и к узкой горной дороге с множеством поворотов, чтобы добраться до поселка от основного шоссе. Деревня находится всего в 45 минутах езды от знаменитого Л'иль-рус на машине, и в 35 минутах езды от города Корте. Если вы любите горы, тишину и ищете хорошее место для проживания по отличной цене, домик Лоранс-отличный выбор:) Français: Notre séjour chez Laurence était parfait. Laurence est très charmante et accueillante. L'hébergement est situé dans un petit village calme dans les montagnes. Il est spacieux, lumineux, propre et décoré avec quelques vieux objets traditionnels. Il y a tout nécessaire pour pouvoir cuisiner à la maison: poêles, casseroles, assiettes, couverts, machine à café, un grille-pain et un réfrigérateur. Il y a même une machine à laver, mais nous n'en avais pas besoin....

Très bon accueil,je le recommande fortement .

Laurence è stata davvero disponibile con noi. Ci ha accompagnato anche a mangiare in un buon ristorante della zona la sera stessa in cui siamo arrivati...e la mattina stessa dei vicini ci hanno regalato del delizioso latte di capra appena munto...per chi ama la natura e la tranquillita' la casa è in una posizione ideale, in un paesino veramente caratteristico...per raggiungerlo anche la strada è caratteristica :) ci siamo stati una settimana e ci siamo mossi in macchina da nord a sud macinando molti km al giorno...insomma corsica on the road! la corsica con la sua varieta di paesaggi è stata veramente una bella esperienza! speriamo di ritornarci presto per visitarla meglio!

We had an absolutely amazing stay in this beautiful and comfortable house. House is located in the charming old village in the mountain. House has a unique climate and amazing view on mountain landscape. Chantal is the perfect host. It's really a beautiful place to vacation. We would highly recommend the place to all people in need of relaxing and peace.

A calm corner in the world, perfect to relax in hot summer days. La Castagniccia is an amazing forest, worth to see. It has been a very nice stay. Dominique and Joseph are inner hosts, their passion for Corse is contagious, and thanks to their generosity and hospitality we could see things that otherwise we would have missed. Thanks so much again!

The location is beautiful, great house, great views!!! Lovely hosts, very friendly and attentive. We didn't expect such hospitality. Joseph and Dominic made sure we had everything we needed including food. Would highly recommend the place, pictures does not do the justice. Thanks again

Calme, reposant, très agréable

Conforme à la description. Dommage il manque juste la télévision mais on s'occupe autrement

Who the ultimate relaxation in the mountains of Corsica surrounded the beautiful Macchia searches, is right at Paulette and Sean Paul! In the tiny village in Gavignano the clocks tick differently. No traffic, no stress, no noise - just quiet, the wonderful views of the expansive nature and brief visits by wild pigs, cows and cheeky lizards. For directions to the secluded, generous stone house of Paulette should and women to take time and strong nerves. The serpentine path in the mountains (approx. 30 minutes) is asphalted, but here and there is only one lane passable what to adjacent abyss adrenaline boosts neat line of sight - at least for the first ride. Once at the top, in the tiny 25 person village these hardships, however, quickly forgotten. The reception at Paulette and Sean-Paul was very welcoming, they provided us along with cold beer, which was very welcome on this hot day. The two are very helpful, friendly, open-minded and are always for questions or Gossip available without in any way being intrusive. French is very helpful! The apartment, which is right next to Paulette's house provides enough space for 4 people, Sleeps up to 6 people are available. Everything seemed very lovingly decorated, everything was clean and tidy. We marveled at the spacious bathroom (bath, 2 sinks and walled shower), were pleased about the well-equipped kitchen (gas stove, oven, large fridge, dishes, cookware, dishes, large dishwasher, spices, basic food available), the incredible enjoyed great and large terrace with panoramic views and 2 (!) BBQ stations can spend on the outstandingly warm summer nights. Moreover, there is the ground floor of a bedroom (2 single beds, chest), a washing Kammerl (with washing machine), a living room (with sofa bed and TV, Wi-Fi), a narrow wooden staircase leads up to the 1st floor, where the bathroom and a very romantic bedroom with a double bed is. Midweek fresh pastries is sold right outside the front door by the mobile baker, once a week also fresh fish and seafood are offered. Although these come at a price, the selection is, however, considerable and the goods of excellent quality. Larger errands are in the nearest supermarket possible this is, however, only to be found on the highway from the entrance to the serpentine road (ie downhill). We have sufficiently stocked up before arriving at Paulette with food to bypass the need for daily purchases. The area offers ample opportunities for hiking, the apartment is located to a walking map on, also Paulette and Sean-Paul can give good advice on the various routes. The university town of Corsica, Corte, located about 45 min. Away by car and is definitely worth a visit. I want to put anyone who wants to experience Corsica by its idyllic and authentic (and less touristy) side and enjoy the stay in Paulette's stone house to the heart! Thanks to Paulette and Sean-Paul for this relaxing holiday and the loving Umsorgung !!!

This is a great place to stay if you enjoy being away from it all, the terrace is great for sunset views and it's..... well quiet, relaxing and fantastic.

We arrived at the designated place and at first we weren't sure if this is the right place. Locals speak only French. So we drove a bit around the block. There's actually 2 Streets. And quickly found the place. The house is lovely, with a nice terrace and a superb view of the mountains of corsica.

We had a very pleasant stay at Paulette and Jean-Louis’ place, exactly the type of isolation (a dead-end street in a hameau as part of a small village) we were looking for after a long time of hard work. The house had all we needed, it was very well equipped, including a perfect wifi-connection, something crucial for continuing some work. Gavignano is somewhat remote, but a perfect place for small walks near-by and bigger walks not too far away. Calvi, Bastia, even the beach, it’s all close by. Shopping can easily be done in Ponte Leccia, Corte and Vizzavone are not that far away (and an interesting railroad connects these places). A very nice terrace (nice BBQ) with a splendid view on the mountains and lovely sunsets. Paulette and Jean-Louis were perfect hosts that shared quite some information about the island and its history.

We had a lovely stay at Paulette and Jean Paul. They were very friendly and hospitable! The house is nice and in a beautiful location in the mountains. It really gives you the feeling you live on Corsica. The nature around the house is beautiful and so is the view from the terras. We really enjoyed our stay.

Great place for a 4 person family. Beautiful location and house. Great hosts, very helpful.

Fantastic stay at an amazing place. Paulette was extremely welcoming and helpful. Lovely welcome from her and her family after a long day travelling there. The view from the terrace is mesmerising. You really feel you're in the wilds and the silence is palpable. One evening the peace and quiet was interrupted by two wild boars that came snuffling around the terrace! It's a longish drive down winding roads to get to the main road (about 25 mins), but we didn't mind that as we wanted to get away from it all. Merci Paulette x

We loved these spend 6 days in Gavignano. Paulette and John Paul are very friendly hosts, full of little touches and strong good advice for visiting the area. Their home is very welcoming with all the necessary facilities. The absolute tranquility, a terrace with a magnificent view of the mountains and the animals in freedom could delight our very busy days because in the region there is much to do hikes and discoveries! In short a stay in an authentic setting that will live long in our memories! Thank you for everything ! Sidonie.

amazing house with an unbeatable view. the hosts where charming and helpful. the nature surrounding the house gave a feeling of calm and rustic. a semi large balcony where we could have an afternoon drink or just relax was a bonus. highly suggest a visit.

une experience parfaite. nous avons ete accueillis chaleureusement, la maison etait tres spatieuse, decoree avec gout et les hotes nous ont fournis de precieuses suggestions. le petit dejeuner etait copieux et convivial et nous a permis de decouvrir les sites aux alentours. A ce propos ces hotes avaient meme cartographies des parcours de randonnees a proposer a leurs invites. de plus, sejourner dans leur maison est on ne peut plus depaysant dans le sens où nous decouvrons reellement la "corse profonde " en montagne mais egalement parce que s'y trouve le premier four a pain du village ce qui nous a permis d'apprendre plein de choses sur les coutumes corses comme par exemple la facon de secher les chataignes (specialite locale) ce sejour a donc ete agreable et enrichissant.

Eine ruhige Unterkunft in den Bergen. Rustikal gehalten. Leider aus den Fotos nicht ersichtlich, dass keine Terrasse oder Balkon vorhanden. Hier paar Eindrucke von der Reise in Bildern: (URL HIDDEN)

Not just an enchanting apartment, exquisitely furnished and decorated, but also by far the best equipped rental place we have ever stayed. Ieti and Philippe have thought of everything you might possibly need for a comfortable stay: food basics, dishwasher tablets, laundry liquid, organic soap, picnic baskets, even two real China teapots! There is an entire hamper for the seaside with beach towels, a cooler bag, umbrellas and beach games. The house is a short, easy drive from Bastia airport, then 10/15 minutes up a steep, twisty side road and you are in a different world of trees, birdsong and stunning views. The friendly village bar serves evening meals and there is a very good pizzeria about a mile and a half down the road. The bread van which drives through each morning between 10 and 11am sells not just bread (delicious) but pizza slices, pasties, apple and apricot pastries: everything you could want for a picnic on one of the lovely secret garden terraces. An excellent base for exploring north Corsica, as Corte for mountain walks and rock pools in the Val Restonica or the beaches of the east and west coasts are all easily and quickly accessible. The area is full of unexpected delights like the stunning 15th Century frescoes in the village chapel and an extraordinary early Christian complex on the remains of a Roman villa an hour or so walk away. The house itself was owned by the mother of Pasquale Paoli, the great Corsican hero and is full of history. Ieti and Philippe are the kindest and most generous of hosts and it was an absolute pleasure to meet them. One minor point, the 'Picasso bedroom' is accessed through the twin bedroom.

Grand calme et vue superbe. Hôtes charmants et maison chargée d'histoire.

Wir hatten eine gute Zeit im Haus von Ieti und Philippe. Die beiden sind sehr herzlich, das Haus ist wunderschön und sehr gut ausgestattet. Allerdings liegt es sehr, sehr abgelegen.

nice home of Ingrid and Pascal. Hamlet welcoming and pleasant house, well equipped. beautiful area. Thank you all. Jeans

We enjoyed this cottage in the pretty hamlet of Carrognu the heart of the Corsican mountains. We had a very good contact with Christine. The very spacious home has provided us with three very pleasant days, the accommodation offers a magnificent view of the valley. Living room with fireplace that must be especially nice in the fall. Situation which offers peace and quiet. Small problem anyway for parking spaces not always available just not on the town square ... and no terrace, we would have gladly taken advantage of an outside to eat outside enjoying the beautiful view.

The photos don't do the house justice, nor the friendliness of the people in this village. We didn't know what to expect before we arrived at this village of twenty inhabitants (and raising the local population by 20%!), but it was the most relaxing and beautiful place we've been to. The old house has a typical stone exterior but the inside renovation was of top notch standard with all modern amenities available. We had access to the terrace next door and enjoyed a great evening with the BBQ. Village life is well and alive here, where the neighbours greet you from their window balconies and help each other out, the baker comes around once a day so you can buy bread from his car, and even the odd water outage for the whole village was amusing and novel for us. We take it for granted what city life offers, but despite the harsher environment here, people are so much happier and more content. We had dinner at the restaurant next door, and the great food matched the hospitality of Napo and Mimi. There are walking trails nearby and it was a truly unforgettable experience to have been a part of this Corsican history.

We had the best possible experience with this accommodation, more than we've expected. Christine and Axel were very helpful before our arrival, and their friend who welcomed us to a village was very kind. House is beautifully, perfectly located in upper Corsica. It is located in a remote village about 12 kilometers from the main road, what a drive! It is spacious, lovely decorated and very clean old house in a cliff village on a top of the cliff, with a million dollars worth view. It is about 25 minutes to the great beaches, shops and road to all larger towns. House is also equipped with anything you may need - from laundry room, to fully equipped kitchen, etc. Highest recommendation.

We had a wonderful week in a traditional corsican house! But it was traditional only fom outside: the interior is very comfortable, equipped with high-tech equipment. The landscape from the windows is like a dream. We were nine - it was plenty of place for all of us. Thank you Cristine & Axel!
