The stunning beaches and breathtaking mountains of Corsica

Villas d'Ortoli - 3 or 4 bedrooms, sleeps 6 or 8 people
Freeform pool with Jacuzzi, television, CD, spacious, stunning views

The Villas d'Ortoli are two beautiful, spacious villas built in a creole style, which have been sympathetically landscaped into a sunny, south-facing hillside, overlooking the beautiful Gulf of Valinco. Adorned with flowers and vines, the mature landscaping lends an air of peace and tranquility whilst the busy little resort of Propriano is just a short drive away.

Designed by a local architect, the houses each comprise two apartments; a three bedroom upper apartment with large terrace which has access to the shared pool at the residence next door, and a four bedroom ground floor apartment, which has a private pool and spa. Stone steps to the side of the house link the two unobtrusively, making the houses equally suited to larger parties or two families who want to holiday together, whilst retaining a degree of privacy.

The door opens onto a hallway leading to the bright, spacious living room with teak dining table and chairs, television and CD player, and a comfortable sofabed to allow for flexible sleeping arrangements. A breakfast bar separates the well equipped kitchen which has all the facilities one would expect of a house of this quality; full oven and hob, microwave, washing machine and dishwasher as well as a kettle, cafetiere and toaster.

The hallway from the main room leads to a double bedroom with French windows with access to the terrace, and two twin bedrooms. There are two shower rooms, one with a toilet, and a separate toilet. The four bedroom apartments have an additional double bedroom and shower room with toilet. The bedrooms that have access directly on to the terrace enjoy the same stunning views as the main living room.

Outside, each apartment has a large terrace which is perfect for outdoor living, and outstanding views over the sea towards Propriano. The ground floor apartments also have a lovely little garden area, and the terrace is covered with vines and flowers, providing dappled sunlight and shade through the heat of the day. The crowning glory of these larger apartments is the inviting Jacuzzi and separate freeform infinity pool adorned with ornamental rocks, which enjoy superb uninterrupted views. The three bedroom apartments on the first floor have shared use of the pool next door.

The coastline here is interspersed with beautiful and sometimes secluded sandy coves. However, some of the most picturesque beaches in Corsica are just a short distance away; golden sand, clear blue water and awe-inspiring granite rocks jutting out of the sea. However, the beaches are only part of the story, and the Valinco has a lot more to offer visitors from the intriguing pre-historic site at Filitosa, to Sartene, the most Corsican of Corsican towns, and Propriano's bustling waterfront marina where you can sample some of the fresh fish caught that morning whilst watching the sun set over the bay. In the area you can go walking, horse-riding, diving, climbing, or take a train or boat trip, whilst the more adventurous can try canyoning, parachuting, climbing or jetskiing.

Linen is not included in the price of the rental, but can be supplied - see below for details.

Comments from previous guests...

'Beautiful location with amazing views across the bay. Good value. Spacious. Perfect for two families sharing but wanting their own space. We loved our villa - beautiful views across the ocean. It was the perfect location. A short drive down the hill to the nearest, pretty beach and along the coast for lots of other beaches and a bustling little town. The two villas worked perfectly as we were two families holidaying together. Loved the patio and pools. It was great to have the bakery van delivering bread and croissants in the morning. The small pools were perfect for our 2 and 4 year olds. We will definitely be coming back.'
