In our opinion, a trip to Corsica is always a good idea. The scenery is exquisite, the food a marvel, and the beaches are something from a dream. We love this pretty stone house in the seaside resort of Moriani Plage – it’s a splendid base for a family or a group of friends. 

The house is simple and bright, with a neutral colour scheme that lends itself to relaxation. There’s plenty of room for everyone to gather together, whether it’s around the piano in the living room or in the dining room. When the sun is shining, you’ll want to be outside to enjoy every last second of it. Happily, there’s a wonderful garden here. Little ones will love playing on the lawn, while grown-ups might prefer sitting on the terrace with a glass of wine. There’s a hammock to doze in, and a barbecue for alfresco meals – we’d be buying some fresh seafood for sure. 

This home is in a quiet residential area so you’ll really be able to relax and unwind. That’s not to say that it’s a sleepy spot though – Padullela Park is across from the house, with its tennis courts and play area. Moriani Beach is a seven-minute walk from the house, and you can stroll for a gelato a couple of minutes away. If you feel like being a bit more active, you might try your hand at jet skiing or sailing. Hikers will love exploring the Costa Verde trails. There’s something for everyone here.

Offering everything you need for a serene island break, this charming two-bedroom apartment is located close to the crescent-shaped white sand beach, gentle lapping waves and beach bars of family-friendly Lozari in Corsica's less-explored north-west corner.

Its central living room and kitchen acts as the hub of the home, with the twin bedroom and main bathroom leading off it. Large bifold doors open out onto a balcony shaded by canvas sails to keep you from getting scorched beneath cloudless Corsican skies. Meanwhile, there's a double bedroom upstairs, complete with its own shower and basin.

After spending a couple of days unwinding close to home, you might find yourself with an urge to explore the area. Head east along winding mountain roads to the untamed landscapes of the Agriates Desert, before continuing on to Saint-Florent, its imposing 15th-century citadel looming large on the horizon.

Alternatively, drive south along the coast to the Riviera-style seaside town of Île Rousse for a taste of Corsican luxury. After perusing its upmarket boutiques, why not continue to Calvi? The island's cultural capital benefits from a bustling atmosphere and awe-inspiring views over the bay.


Stay the Corse

Self Check-in / Check-out

With a glittering sea view, a delightful terrace, and a swimming pool for cooling off, this apartment is a great choice for a sunny getaway. With everything you need for a comfortable stay, couples and small families will love this base for exploring Grosseto-Prugna and the idyllic Corsica island.

The interior has taken on a simple, modern design, with a well-equipped kitchen, bar-style table, and plush sofa. The bright space is open and welcoming. Whether you're sipping coffee around the table and planning the day ahead, or reading your book on the sofa after a day of exploring, relaxing will come easy here. 

The home's shining jewel, however, is the spacious terrace. With a lovely view of flower-dotted bushes, luscious trees, the glittering Mediterranean sea, and the curved hills, it's a great space to relax and soak up the sun. And if you fancy cooling off, take the short walk to your pool for a quick dip. Or, pack your beach towel and walk the ten minutes to the sugary white sand beach and crystal clear waters. When you get peckish for some lunch, the town of Porticcio is nearby with its restaurants, bars, and markets.

Nice to haves

This awesome architect designed villa boasts a blissful combination of inimitable indulgences – including a balcony, multi-layered gardenscape, outdoor swimming pool and an alfresco lounging, barbecuing and dining terrace – all with sublime sea views. Such mesmerising Mediterranean scenes can also be appreciated from the open plan kitchen cum dining cum living room as well as from the master bedroom, while the additional bedrooms offer access to the garden. While gazing out to sea you’ll love lazing on the outdoor sofa, taking the plunge in your private pool, feasting alfresco on barbecued delights and sneaking off for a sundowner with your beloved on the balcony.  

A sculptural spectacle in its own right featuring a carefully curated series of beautifully and individually decorated rooms, this cool, contemporary Corsican home will wow both the artsy and the outdoorsy. You’ll delight in the diversity that is wall paper meets marble tiles as well as the celebration of the cohesive use of contrasting and yet complementary colour combinations.

Your home’s unique location on the outskirts of the village of Erbalunga – remarkable for its 16th-century Genoese tower built on a rock at the entrance to the port – means you’ll not only be able to pop to the shops, but also sample the several restaurants dotted around its central square. What’s more, with the beach only a ten-minute drive away, the more adventurous among you will appreciate the opportunity to hike, dive and canoe.


Sea for Days

Satellite / Cable TV

Overlooking the red rocks of L'Île-Rousse, this captivating Corsican getaway offers a welcome respite from your usual routine. We invite you to while away a few hours gazing out over the endless blue of the Mediterranean from the inviting pool or stepping straight out of bed and onto the balcony from the main bedroom.

Inside, the decor is simple and uncluttered, leaving the views to take the limelight. The colour palette makes use of neutral earth tones to create a relaxing atmosphere, with the occasional piece of eye-catching artwork or imposing sculpture to add to the visual interest.

It's a similar story in the kitchen, where you can prepare group meals looking out over the garden. Though your hosts' hotel is so close, there's always the temptation to head there for an indulgent breakfast buffet.

No trip to Corsica would be complete without at least a day or two spent exploring. With spectacular mountain vistas, hilltop fortress villages and picture-perfect beaches, the La Balagne is well worth your time. We'd suggest hiring a car to explore at your own pace, discovering historic settlements such as Pigna, woodland trails and beach restaurants that look out over secluded coves. Alternatively, take the U Trinichellu train as far as the vibrant city of Calvi, passing beautiful beaches and quaint seaside towns along the route.

Live from Red Rocks

Free Parking

If you're looking to be close to the sandy beaches and turquoise water coves of Corsica, then this modern apartment is the place for you. Situated close to Ajaccio, in the charming town of Pietrosella, you're surrounded by unspoilt countryside and rolling hills with the shimmering sea always in full view, especially from your private terrace. 

Days begin out here, tucking into a French breakfast of tasty pastries and coffee as you pack your seaside essentials for a day down on Agosta Beach, a ten-minute walk from your doorstep. Inside, it's a stylish affair with brown leather furnishings and chic decor. Flop down on the sofa and relax in the afternoons with a good glass of wine, slide open the balcony doors, instantly expanding your communal space. 

When it's time to head back out, we recommend a visit to the vast wine estates of Capitoro and Omasca, only twenty minutes away by car. Fill your evenings at the charming port city of Ajaccio, a half-hour drive away, enjoying excellent seafood restaurants and a couple of sundown cocktails along the sparkling harbour.

Perched high above the sea in the village of Monticello in Upper Corsica, this elegant villa has everything you need for a quiet, coastal retreat. Inside, earthy tones mix with comfortable furniture that invites you to relax. We love the cosy living room, with leather sofas for you to kick back and watch a movie after a day enjoying all that this stretch of coastline has to offer. There’s no extravagance here, and there’s no attempt to distract from everything the outside space has to offer, which is something that really sets this villa apart. 

Step out onto your sun-drenched terrace and you’re met with a sea so blue, it’s hard to tell where the sea ends and the sky begins. Your private pool welcomes you in for a refreshing dip and is somewhere you could easily while away the hours as the sun warms your skin. When dry land calls, settle down on a sun lounger with your holiday read and get lost in a story. In such a peaceful setting, all you’ll hear is the quiet song of the birds in the surrounding trees.

When you’re ready for a change of scenery, there are plenty of boutiques and local markets to peruse, perhaps picking up some delicious local produce to take home and rustle up a dinner to enjoy alfresco under the stars.

Paid Parking On Street

Nestled between the luscious hills of the lively town of Calvi, this lovely apartment is a wonderful choice for a family or friends getaway. Striking a harmonious balance between contemporary living and boho beachy charm,  it exudes calm and comfort. 

We love the seaside style of this home, bringing the beauty of Calvi's pristine coastline indoors. It's the ultimate holiday home, packed with cheer and joy that'll brighten your days to no end. The sunny, south-facing terrace is the cherry on top, continuing the contemporary, boho design. We do love the interior, but we can imagine lots of morning coffees, lunches, dinners, and evening drinks will go on around this outdoor table. And with a mountainous view like that, who can blame you?

When it's time to explore, you're a short walk from the dramatic coast. Corsica is known for its active culture as well as its pristine beaches, so whether you want to relax on the beach, take on water sports, or go for a beautiful hike, you can easily do it all here. And Calvi is Corsica's main hub – perfect for a drink or two along the marina, after a day of enjoying the sun. 

A Thousand Charms

First Aid Kit

Located on the idyllic rugged island of Corsica, this duplex apartment is a wonderful choice for a family or friends getaway. It combines contemporary living with seaside charm beautifully, with hues of blue, sandy woods, and accents of rattan exuding a laid-back vibe. 

You'll be in awe of this home as soon as you step through the front door. The wide patio doors invite the dazzling natural light to flood, dancing off the pristine surfaces and white walls. You'll naturally feel compelled to step onto the balcony, where you'll be met with a gorgeous view of the Mediterranean sea, backed by majestic mountains. And to make good use of its enviable location, the home boasts another outdoor space on the lower ground floor. We can imagine you'll be spending most of your time in these outdoor spaces – savouring a fresh morning coffee, nursing an afternoon glass of wine, or preparing a barbecue feast for dinner. 

Exploring Pietrosella and the rest of Corsica comes easy here. Go for a revitalising morning swim in the nearby cove, just a three-minute walk away, or spend lazy days relaxing on one of the nearby beaches, the closest being just an eight-minute drive away. The island is known for its dramatically beautiful hikes nearly as much as its idyllic beaches – there are so many valleys and trails to explore. 

Myrtle & Mint

Enjoy a relaxing Corsica holiday with a stay at this bright and comfortable apartment, offering spectacular views from its huge terrace. Situated in a peaceful and picturesque neighbourhood, this home is within walking distance from the beach and the town centre. 

This pad is a great choice for a family or a small group of friends, with a generous living space ideal for kicking back and relaxing after long beach days. Enjoy movie evenings on the comfy sofa and rustle up delicious meals in the well-equipped kitchen. You'll be able to share your feasts outside on the terrace, as the sun begins to set over the horizon. There’s also a gas plancha out here, making it even easier to organise those alfresco suppers. 

Everyone will get a good night’s rest in the comfy bedrooms with additional sleeping spaces in the living room. Wake up refreshed and start your day with breakfast on the terrace while you plan your adventures. 

Aside from the glorious beaches, you’ll also love exploring the old port of L'Île-Rousse, known as the Saint-Tropez of Corsica, with its winding streets lined with charming cafes and the famous Place Paoli, known as the favourite spot for petanque fans.

Among the mountain landscapes, quaint villages and rolling hills of the Balagne region, this delightful villa enjoys a privileged position, overlooking the Corsica countryside. Designed by the owner, who just so happens to be an architect, this home was created with care and attention.

Authentic materials have been used to preserve the period charm of the interiors. The beauty isn't limited to the inside, either – step out onto the teak wood terraces and discover breathtaking views over the fortress of hilltop villages and rugged greenery below. Start the day with coffee and a dip in the private pool, taking a moment to fully appreciate the spectacular scenery around you before heading off to explore it.

Spend an afternoon strolling towards the local winery, where you can sample some of the area's most highly regarded wines, or use one of the inter-village walking trails to hike through the hills. The famous coastline is a short drive away, offering glistening blue ocean and dense forests – this is a seaside escape like no other.

After an adventure-filled day, head back to that gorgeous terrace to cook an alfresco feast on the charcoal barbecue. Pour a glass of your favourite tipple, take a seat facing the mountains and witness an unforgettable sunset before retiring indoors to indulge in a well-deserved bubble bath.  

Island Beauty

Bike Shed

Making a stunning first impression with its terracotta-coloured walls and shutters, the real show-stopping feature of this home is actually found around the back where a large, arching window acts as a portal between the indoor space and the lush garden, and the sea views beyond that. 

Sit outside, without the barrier of glass or walls, first thing in the morning and take a moment for coffee and contemplation as you bask in the tranquillity on offer here. Little ones can run around, inspecting hedges and smelling flowers, as they let their imaginations go.  

Cook in the kitchen, where the beautiful stained-glass panels and yellow tiles will brighten any day, and eat the offerings together at the dining table. 

The beach lies at the other end of a ten-minute drive, and you’re about five minutes away from the most breathtaking panoramic views at Sant-Antonino. Explore Aregno itself – every hamlet has something else to offer – and return home after stopping off at a pizzeria to dine alfresco at sunset. 

Arcus

Nestled within Monticello's Ornicciu district, this modern domicile offers inspiring landscapes merging sea and countryside views. Perched at an elevated vantage, it's just a pebble's throw away from Ile Rousse’s inviting sands. Balance life's tempo in sync with nature on this two-hectare spot of earth; private, yet shared. A swimming pool rippling pleasantly amidst natural surroundings promises invigorating dips. The villa captures you with its modernity and comfort, showcasing four rooms promising restful slumber. An open kitchen lets creativity bloom, while the substantial lounge draws together dining and relaxation under one roof, leading out to the terrace and pool. Sit back on the terrace with its ample view, savouring a cool evening or a sun-drenched morning. Make lasting memories over barbecue nights under star-flecked skies. A no-smoking policy and preference for tranquillity keeps the atmosphere pure.

Corsican Whispers

Outdoor Shower

Immersed in a sanctuary of olive trees with spectacular views across the mountains of Occhiatana, this home welcomes you to enjoy the abundant beauty of Corsica. 

Consisting of four bedrooms spread across two separate apartments, the space is united by a flowering garden and swimming pool – perfect for relaxing and savouring the serenity of this unique location. There are also several terraces and shady spots for lounging, reading and enjoying glasses of wine as the sun sets. And for those evenings when you want to sit under the stars, the barbecue and dining area welcome you to experience the true magic of outdoor living. 

Back inside, you’ll find the simple bedrooms set the tone for a restorative night’s rest. And when you’re refreshed and ready to explore, the glistening coastline awaits. Located less than 2km from the sea, days can be spent on the beach or exploring the beautiful countryside. Wander through the streets of Occhiatana, admire the 17th-century frescoes in the church and mingle with locals in the village square.

Welcome Hamper

This lovely stone villa sits off the tourist trail in the northwestern Balagne region of the island. Known for its spectacular scenery and hilltop communes, you'll find this particular home just outside the authentic Corsican village of Feliceto.

Step inside this welcoming home, and you'll uncover a light and spacious open living room and kitchen, with several French doors offering direct access to the outdoor terrace. From here, you can lay out by the pool and enjoy the lush green landscapes, with olive trees that run from the village all the way to the Renucci and Maestracci vineyards. 

Feliceto is nestled in the foothills of the Montegrosso Massif and surrounded by sky-high peaks that reach close to 2,000m. The village gets its name from the river, where you'll find locals of all ages frolicking in the water over the summer months. Elsewhere, you can also experience local life at the 'ghjardinettu', the village square where you'll find people simply watching the world go by. Slightly further afield, head half an hour west to the coast at Calvi, the island's capital of culture, or visit the wild and beautiful Agriates Desert, forty minutes north of the villa.

Inside, it’s a blend of contemporary and traditional styles.

Return home in the evening for a glass of well deserved wine on the fragrant terrace before retreating to the quiet bedrooms for a deep and restful slumber. 

Nurra's Orchid

Escape to a quiet cove on Corsica's northwestern coastline for a stay at this charming villa. Though the exterior exudes traditional French style, inside you'll find modern furnishings and appliances including a freezer, dishwasher, and washing machine. The open-plan living space offers plenty of places for you to relax with friends or family, whether that's chatting at the dining table or unwinding on the corner sofa. However, it's likely that you'll spend most of your time on the terrace, relaxing with a cold drink on the lounge set and admiring views of the Mediterranean. Galéria is a quiet coastal village, where you'll find a couple of traditional Corsican restaurants, bars and a supermarket. Hike the trails to the Genoese tower by the shore, or venture further into the Corsican hills. End your day with a barbecue at your villa, watching night fall on the village and mountains. 

Napoleon's Footsteps

Safe

Situated on the shores of western Corsica, this bright and modern apartment is an excellent base from which to explore the Gulf of Ajaccio. The place is fuss-free and inviting, with a comfortable loveseat strategically positioned in front of the floor-to-ceiling glass doors, and a dinky kitchenette for putting together charcuterie boards. Spend mornings unwinding on the terrace before heading down to the communal pool for a leisurely swim. 

Should you fancy a change of scenery, jump in the car and take the short drive to the idyllic Plage de Porticcio or head over to Ajaccio, the island’s capital city and birthplace of Napoleon Bonaparte. Brush up on your art history knowledge at the Fesch Museum then seek out a harbourside restaurant for a slap-up seafood supper. 

Distant Dreams

Outdoor Audio

From the moment you step inside this home, you’ll be drawn out onto the terrace. Secluded and serene, it has the most stunning views across the bay of Ajaccio – a sight we’re sure you’ll never tire of. 

Wander back inside, and this home gives a very distinct nod to its surroundings. Pops of teal and blue are peppered throughout this apartment, mirroring the tones of the ocean outside, and with coastal decor adorning the walls and shelves. It’s compact but comfortable with that little touch of class, making it the ideal base for exploring the local area. 

Locally, you may want to visit the old town of Ajaccio or perhaps you long to feel the sand between your toes – if so, you’re in luck, as Porticcio beach is just a short four-minute drive away. After a day of adventure, return home, pour yourself a glass of wine, and head onto your terrace where you can snuggle up on the sofa. As the day draws to an end, watch as the sun sets over the Iles Sanguinaires (The Blood Islands) – named for their dark red colour. As the sky turns from its orange glow to black, look up at the blanket of stars above. With just the sound of the ocean and the feel of the breeze tickling your skin, you won’t find a better way to end the day.

Carbon Monoxide Detector

With an advantageous hillside position giving way to panoramic views of Palombaggia Bay, this home is all about tranquillity. You'll find a private swimming pool and alfresco dining table all positioned towards the scenery. Personally, we like the little observation nook. Two chairs create the perfect opportunity for a romantic sunset moment. Though the interior doesn't quite hold a candle to the surroundings, it's still comfortable. There's also more than enough room for a family or group of friends. As for location, beach lovers can rejoice knowing they're only 800 meters from Palombaggia Beach. 

Bayview Bliss

Designed by architect Cini Boeri, this wonderfully unique home in Sardinia is tilted forward to better show off the panoramic views of its incredible surroundings. Created to make the most of indoor-outdoor living, it's also cleverly constructed to keep the south-facing areas cool and shaded, shielding your from the heat of the Sardinian sun. While the stark grey facade and sharply angled lines make a breathtaking first impression, we think the interiors speak for themselves too. We love how the architect decided to show off the incredible landscape of La Maddalena by creating a picture frame out of every window – each one set at the exact right height to maximise the impact. There’s even a telescope in the study so you can explore the area from the comfort of your own home, or go full Rear Window and see what your neighbours are up to down in the harbour. The muted grey tones of the exterior are mirrored in the contemporary kitchen, while the dining room is framed by floor-to-ceiling windows offering the best views in the house. Outside, you’ll find a wooden deck that’s perfect for morning coffees, evening cocktails, and everything in between.

Located within a vast, rural estate and surrounded by pomegranate and olive trees, this captivating Corsican home really does have it all. Boasting mesmerising Cagna Mountain views, terraced gardens and an outdoor pool and hot tub, this heavenly home guarantees a hefty dose of good, old-fashioned R & R. Dating back to the mid-19th century this former school features a rustic, farmhouse-style kitchen and an open-plan living and dining room complete with terracotta tiled floors and beautifully vaulted, wooden ceilings.  

You’ll love tucking into your daily delivery of home-made pastries before whiling away hours lazing on loungers in the sun, dipping in and out of the pool or luxuriating in your private, outdoor hot tub. Prepare firm family favourites on the range in the kitchen or hang out in the outdoor kitchen, before feasting on barbecued delights on the covered, poolside deck. Spend the afternoon reading or reclining on the raised terracotta terrace or wander about the garden while inhaling the intoxicating scents of eucalyptus and maquis. Whatever you do, don’t forget to host a hammam session before grabbing a bottle of the estate’s fine wine and watching the sunset behind the mountains.

Alternatively, if you fancy a little light exploration, one of the island’s most idyllic beaches, Plage de Roccapina is just 14km away whilst the historic village of Sartène can be reached in 20 minutes by car.

Pines & Vines

Sound System

Sea views and vineyards? Yes, please. This charming villa is just the spot for unwinding in Tuscany, whether you're staying for a few days or settling in for a longer break. Set back from the unspoilt Etruscan coastline and surrounded by nature, the only sounds you’re likely to hear are birdsong and crickets. Generously sized for a two-bedroom home, there’s plenty of space to stretch out both indoors and out — think alfresco meals by the barbecue, dips in the saltwater pool and refreshing showers under the sun. When you’re ready to explore, you’re spoilt for choice, with historic hilltop villages, thermal baths and Roman archaeological sites all just a short drive away.

The Etruscan Sea

You’ll find this restored Tuscan farmhouse nestled in the Livorno countryside, surrounded by hills and woodland – it’s a true escape back to nature. With interiors that seamlessly blend a contemporary style with the traditional bones of the house, it’s a welcoming retreat for large groups of family or friends. Outdoors, the private pool, shaded dining spots and sun-kissed terraces provide the perfect place to gather together and socialise. Locally, the small town of Gabbro, boasting a range of shops and restaurants, is just three kilometres away, or you can drive a little further to explore Castiglioncello, Livorno or Pisa. 

Sweet Skylark

Desk

We think it's pretty easy to see why we picked this home – just look at those views. Overlooking the bay of Nisporto, you'll have everything you need here for a slow-paced Italian escape. The interiors aren't the most exciting, but we like how the home is split across two self-contained apartments (connected by an external staircase), making it an excellent option for friends and families to holiday together while retaining some privacy. We imagine you'll spend most of your time on the terrace, but should you want to venture out, the beach is only 650m away, while the town of Portoferraio is a twenty-minute drive.


Colours of Zen

If you want to feel like you’ve stepped into the Garden of Eden, this villa’s for you. This dreamy home has three terraces with alfresco dining tables and stunning views – not to mention the private pool. The lush gardens are full of olive trees, myrtle bushes and prickly pears, with plenty of cosy corners for romantic moments away from the group. The interiors are a little rustic, but let's face it, you're not travelling to Sardinia to sit inside. The best part is the remarkable location on an exclusive peninsula that looks out over the Maddalena archipelago. Stroll to the beach in minutes, or better yet, head out by boat. 

Feels Like Paradise

Immersed in a sanctuary of trees with views across the sea and mountains, this contemporary apartment invites you to experience the abundant beauty of southern Corsica. And with the nearest beach just a five-minute stroll away, there’s everything you could need for a relaxing stay on the shores of this beautiful Mediterranean island. 

Inside, you’ll find the open-plan living space makes the perfect setting for laid-back gatherings, cooking in the fully equipped kitchen and enjoying the quiet simplicity of the location. From here, the doors open up onto a private terrace. With outdoor seating and a barbecue, this is a wonderful spot to gaze at the views whilst savouring the magic of outdoor living. And when you’re in need of a refreshing dip, make your way to the shared swimming pool or wander down to the local beach. 

Days can be spent exploring Corsica’s glistening coastline. From charming towns and majestic forests to rugged mountain peaks and idyllic beaches, you’ll find endless opportunities for hiking, sightseeing and meditating on the spectacular beauty of nature. And for a taste of the island’s rich and immersive history, the city of Ajaccio is just a thirty-minute drive away. 

Maison Mer

Resort Access

A pearl of peace and relaxation, this spot in an exclusive area of the Island of Elba is as romantic as they come. Splashes of Bougainvillea colour the garden with magenta hues, while floral aromas scent the air with elegance. Meanwhile, sweeping views over the sparkling seascape make this dreamy setting even more precious – and we've not even started on the inside of this home yet. 

Unwind and recharge in utter paradise here as the serene ambience of this place will send you into a meditative state of bliss from the moment you arrive. Inside the apartment, chic interiors remain humble to original features, with terracotta tiled flooring and antique pieces decorating the space in true Italian style. Unique quirks such as circular windows add to the charm, while those far-reaching sea views will leave you awe-inspired when waking up here each morning. 

There are three swimming pools (one with sea water) on the residence that you'll have access to and a private beach (Crocodile Beach) that is exclusively available to guests here too. Just follow the steps at the end of the garden down and discover this secret paradise. 




Pearl Romance 

Stair Gates

The original features at this quaint Italian villa practically transport you back in time. Stained glass doorways, tiled floors, and the remains of ceiling frescoes all add to the charm, which perfectly matches the home's Tuscan countryside location. The spacious kitchen is perfect for cooking with friends or family, and the alfresco table on the patio means you can admire the surrounding greenery while dining. Artists will be pleased with the bright ground-floor study – those tranquil views should provide plenty of inspiration – and for more peace and quiet, you can retreat to the balcony. A large swimming pool completes this home, which is less than thirty minutes from the charming seaside town of Livorno.

Set along one of Livorno’s most charming canals, this apartment puts you in the heart of Venezia Nuova – a historic district just moments from the sea. Inside, it’s understated and bright, with four light-filled bedrooms, each with its own bathroom. The living and dining space is compact for nine, so you may find yourself heading out rather than cooking in, but with so much to explore nearby, that’s hardly a drawback. With the coastline, Pisa, Florence and Lucca all within easy reach, you’ll have the best of Tuscany right at your fingertips.

Maritime Vista

In the rugged south of Corsica, near Bonifacio, sits this chalet-like retreat in the hills. Wood-clad outside, it blends in with the rolling scenery, where ancient woodlands cover the hills like a deep green blanket. It’s a ten-minute drive into Bonifacio, an ancient port town with a buzzing marina and medieval hilltop citadel. The villa itself is set in field-like lawns where a shady olive grove invites you for an afternoon stroll. The turquoise swimming pool sits pride of place on the deck and is lined with loungers. Outdoor dining is on offer under the shaded terrace, framed by ivy. Inside it feels natural with wooden walls and a white-wash vaulted ceiling. Floor to ceiling windows show off a view of the flowering garden on all sides and the huge corner sofa is big enough to fit the whole family easily. There’s something bohemian yet sleek about the decor, where a collection of books and records sit on shelves and touches like the tree-branch standing lamp and raw wood coffee table are a reflection of the ancient woodlands just beyond your front door.   

To The Citadel

Surrounded by Tuscan hills and rolling vineyards, this villa is as pretty as it seems. The vine-covered terrace invites you to unwind with a glass of local wine, while the swimming pool is perfect for an afternoon dip. Inside, expect traditional charm with contemporary touches. Both living areas feature sumptuous sofas ideal for lounging, the kitchen has all the essentials to rustle up meals, and each bedroom has the option to arrange the beds as doubles or twins for ultimate flexibility. Keen to explore?  Head towards the coast to Castiglioncello and Castiglione della Pescaia – both a short drive away – or venture north to Pisa for a day trip.

Vine Time

Tucked away in Livorno’s historic New Venice district, this apartment brings you right into the heart of local life. It’s a simple, cheerful space with everything you need for a laid-back city break. The bedroom feels calm and understated, while the open-plan living area – complete with a sofa bed and compact kitchen – is ideal for casual meals and relaxed evenings. Outside, canals weave between buildings and the sea is just a short stroll away. Whether you're wandering the nearby markets or heading to the seafront for sunset, this is an easy base for soaking up Livorno’s maritime charm.

Joyful Oasis

Tennis Court

On a French island with a distinct Italian culture, this apartment is surrounded by classic Corsican landscape and carefree Mediterranean charm. The craggy coastline and chic coastal towns are perfect for a discerning holiday-maker, but this tonal abode will tick all the right boxes too. Sleek, uncrowded interiors give way to a wrap-around balcony with mountain views, and the openness of the outdoor space makes it feel like an extension of the already spacious apartment. It’s definitely a spot that calls for your attention, be it for a croissant breakfast or an indulgent evening meal. Feel the blissful sun on your skin, while relaxing on the sun loungers, after a dip in the pool. Or get set off to explore the island —with Porto-Vecchio just a ten-minute drive away, plus lots of biking and hiking trails nearby, there truly is something for everyone. Not to mention, you’ll only be 3km from the beach!

Bold, bright and modern with a knock-out location, this aparment is close to some of Pisa's best bits. The iconic Leaning Tower of Pisa, for one, is only a few minutes away on foot. And so is Mura di Pisa and Lion's Gate. After a long day of sightseeing, the living space is ideal for relaxing. It's worth noting the sofa also doubles as a bed for two guests, but with a door present, you'll find an element of privacy. Apart from a great central spot, we also like the outdoor seating where you can take a moment to yourself every now and again.

Relish the captivating views of the sea at this idyllic home, in an exclusive area of Rosignano Marittimo. We love that this freshly built, graceful villa blends traditional styles with seaside cool. Fling open the French doors of the dining room and let the warm Tuscan air in as you have a feast for breakfast, then top up your tan by the gorgeous pool surrounded by fragrant Mediterranean cypresses. Grill some local, fresh produce on the barbecue and enjoy a long lazy lunch at the large outdoor table. Later, put your favourite chilled out classics on the outdoor sound system, pour a glass of wine and relax in the Jacuzzi. It sounds like the perfect day to us at this dreamy Tuscan escape.

Toscana Treat

Sauna

Looking out over beautifully manicured gardens and glimpses of the Mediterranean, we think you'll spend hours on this home's large balcony with a glass of local wine in hand – there’s plenty of room out here for lounging and dining. Fling open the French doors in the morning and have a breakfast of buttery croissants from the boulangerie just steps away, and enjoy them with the view from the stylish living room dining table. There’s plenty to keep you occupied – go for a dip in the bay, or top up your tan on the soft, powdery white sands of nearby Pinarellu Beach – we love that it’s just a few steps away. Just under a thirty-minute drive away is chic Porto-Vecchio, known as the Corsican St-Tropez, with its pretty old town’s streets lined with restaurants and designer boutiques – it’s perfect for a day out. After a busy day, head back to your dreamy retreat and put your feet up on the chaise sofa to plan the next day's adventures.
