directCorsica.com - a new way to book your holiday to Corsica.
Janet and Iain Rankin, founders and previous owners of the tour operator
Corsican Places, have used their skills, experience and contacts to create a new travel portal. Launched this week,
directCorsica.com features an appealing selection of property, from luxury villas to romantic village houses, all
of which can be booked direct at owners' prices. Flights and car hire at discounted rates are also on offer, so
travellers can create their own package and make significant savings.
Another benefit of booking direct is that visitors will be more in touch with their Corsican hosts, and better
able to experience the real Corsica.
With over 30 years of experience of Corsica, directCorsica is able to offer expert advice to people planning to
visit the island, and aim to provide a complete directory of practical information about Corsica. More properties
will be added during the coming weeks, as well as a selection of hotels - again at discounted prices - and chambres
d'hotes. unquote
mission statement:
Corsica - A Mountain in the Mediterranean
Corsica is one of the most beautiful places in the world. With its 600 miles of unspoilt and uncrowded coastline, with wild scenery soaring dramatically to nearly 9,000 feet at Monte Cinto, it seduces every visitor. And yet, despite its unique beauty, its Mediterranean climate, its cool green mountains, Corsica has avoided the ugly mass tourism which has blighted so many Mediterranean islands.
The founders of Corsican Places, the
tour operator, first went to Corsica in 1970. They sold their business in 2000, but knew it was not the end of
their 30 year love affair with the island. So now, making use of their considerable knowledge and experience of
Corsica, they have launched this new website to put people seeking to visit this lovely island directly in touch
with owners of top villas, holiday houses, village houses, hotels and apartments.
Now you can book your holiday accommodation direct at 'owners' prices, and at the same time book flights and car
hire at advantageous rates - all on the same website.
