The village is made up of 9 houses and is at a dead end, so there is no traffic. The house is on 4 levels with a large fully equipped kitchen, 2 living rooms, 7 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, 1 shower room, 3 toilets. The interior is simple, high ceilings, with floors or stone on the floor and white walls. In summer, the house is cool given the thickness of the walls. All rooms have a double exposure and are located on the 1st and 2nd floor with a bathroom (large corner bath) on each floor and a bathroom (shower) on the ground floor. There is one wc per floor. There is now a 3rd floor with the attic layout (game room, 2 beds, office ...) With large openings, the house is very bright, facing east, south and west. Two large terraces, to the east and south / west, with fruit trees, have views of the valley of chestnut and olive trees and of Mount San Petrone. 'Le Casone' is the ideal house to spend a quiet holiday, surrounded by nature, with a beautiful view, without the inconvenience of the heat and insects of the coast, while being close to various beach or mountain activities that Corsica offers. ## Property amenities ### Parking and transport - Car required - Onsite parking options include a garage ### Kitchen - Blender - Coffee grinder - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Electric kettle - Hob - Ice maker - Microwave - Oven - Refrigerator - Spices - Toaster ### Dining - Dining table ### Bedrooms - 7 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided - Sofa bed ### Bathroom - 2.5 bathrooms - Bathtub - Shower - Soap - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table - Fireplace - Living room - Separate dining area ### Entertainment - Books - Games - Music library - Stereo - Video library ### Outdoor areas - Balcony - Barbecue grill - Garden - Outdoor furniture - Terrace ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Work spaces - Office ### Comfort - Heating ### Pets - No pets allowed ### Suitability/Accessibility - Designated smoking areas - Note from host: uniquement à l'extérieur ### Services and conveniences - Housekeeping (limited availability) - Iron/ironing board - Meal delivery service ### Location highlights - In a village - In the mountains - Near the sea ### Things to do - Arcade/game room - Foosball table - Table tennis - Birdwatching nearby - Ecotours nearby - Fishing nearby - Golfing nearby - Hiking/biking trails nearby - Horseback riding nearby - Hunting nearby - Mountain biking nearby - Mountain climbing nearby - Rafting nearby - Sailing nearby - Scuba diving nearby - Swimming nearby - Windsurfing nearby ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector (host has indicated there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) ### General - Garden - Unit size: 3,875 square feet ## Similar properties ![6 bedrooms, iron/ironing board, free WiFi](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/34000000/33610000/33606000/33605963/d36523f8.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### 70m from the beach, pretty house 200m2, sea view, 6 bedrooms, 5 bathrooms, 7 wc, enclosed garden, 15 people Poggio-Mezzana - Sea view - Kitchen - Washer - Pet-friendly 9.8 Exceptional 13 reviews [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-10-22&endDate=2025-10-23&selected=33605963&PinnedHotelID=33605963&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Beach](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/92000000/91600000/91590200/91590154/34317caa.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Quiet house 200M2 with secure swimming pool Ponte leccia Ponte-leccia - Pool - Kitchen - Washer - Pet-friendly [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-10-22&endDate=2025-10-23&selected=91590154&PinnedHotelID=91590154&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Outdoor dining](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/35000000/34410000/34405300/34405252/aea85ede.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Villa Safari 14 pers private pool 300m from the sea San-Nicolao - Pool - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer 8.0 Very good 5 reviews [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-10-22&endDate=2025-10-23&selected=34405252&PinnedHotelID=34405252&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Dining](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/110000000/109530000/109522600/109522533/918c0155.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### A Scontra House Casatorra tower Moïta - Parking available - Microwave - Kitchen - Living/dining area 10 Exceptional 1 review [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-10-22&endDate=2025-10-23&selected=109522533&PinnedHotelID=109522533&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Fishing](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/31000000/30080000/30072000/30071973/92d8cf6d.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Awesome home in Santa Maria Poggio Santa Maria Poggio - Pool - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer 8.0 Very good 1 review [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-10-22&endDate=2025-10-23&selected=30071973&PinnedHotelID=30071973&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![On the beach, sun-loungers](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/76000000/75850000/75848400/75848307/42b026a9.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Villa for 10 to 12 people on the seafront.

Une très belle demeure à partir de laquelle on peut rayonner pour découvrir les superbes paysages et villages de Castagniccia, et dans laquelle on aime aussi se poser et passer du temps. Elle est si vaste qu'on peut s'y réunir nombreux, entre amis ou en famille. Chacun pourra néanmoins y trouver un espace à soi. La vue depuis les terrasses ou les chambres sur les collines et le mont Pedrone est magnifique. On goûte ici le bonheur d'être au cœur de la Corse dans une maison authentique, tout en étant invités, par la décoration, à d'autres voyages...

Das Haus liegt in einem kleinen Weiler ca. 25 min von Folelli entfernt. Man hat einen tollen Blick in die Umgebung und bis fast ans Meer. Es ist ideal für Leute, die Wandern und an den Strand wollen. Ein altes korsisches Haus, das sehr liebevoll renoviert und extrem geschmackvoll eingerichtet ist. Die Vermieter sind unheimlich nett und unkompliziert. Wir haben dort mit 14 Personen (8 Erwachsene und 6 Kinder) drei wunderschöne Ferienwochen verbracht. Ich freue mich schon auf's nächste Mal. ##### Stephanie K.
