An idyllic, character cottage, Casa di Sole benefits from a private pool, with beaches and vineyards nearby.
Amid a carpet of cork trees and lichen-covered boulders, Casa di Sole sits on a sun-drenched hillside in the hamlet of Lecci, just to the north of Porto Vecchio. Visible inland are the orange rocks and maritime pine forests of the l’Ospedale massif – a beautiful view best savoured from Casa di Sole's spacious dining terrace in front of the house. Immediately below it, on a lower level, sits a curvi-form pool, surrounded by paving and a delightful rockery interspersed with mimosa bushes. It catches the sun from around 10am in summer, and retains patches of welcome shade throughout the day.
French doors lead inside to an open plan, living-dining-kitchen area, furnished in traditional French farm cottage style with an antique table, tongue-and-groove ceiling and exposed beams overhead. The bedrooms are cool and comfortable, their windows opening on to wild foliage.
Literally carved out of ancient rocks and woodland, this delightful hideaway has the feel of a secluded lookout post. It’s private and peaceful enough to provide an all-day retreat if you wish, though you’re spoiled for choice when it comes to local beaches, with half a dozen wonderful options nearby. Even closer (almost at the end of the driveway in fact) is Corsica’s most acclaimed vineyard, Domaine Torraccia, whose award-winning wines provide the perfect complement to Casa di Sole’s idyllic location.
This property is not recommended for children under five due to the horizontal railings on the terrace and for people with mobility problems due to the uneven steps leading to the property.
