Where the Mountains Meet the Ocean Saint-Florent, Corsica

Holiday Rental Description

Located in Saint-Florent in Northern Corsica, this home is a little slice of French paradise. The indoor and outdoor spaces jostle for attention and if we’re honest, it’s impossible to pick a winner – both are utterly stunning and serene.

Step inside, and you’re met with pure elegance and class. Huge sectional teal-coloured sofas provide a pop of colour in an otherwise calming space with neutral decor – that is, with the exception of the feature wall, which by itself, is an explosion of colour. This is undoubtedly the heart of the home, a place to relax with loved ones as the scent of a delicious dinner drifts through from the kitchen. When it’s time for bed, there’s a beautiful choice of comfortable bedrooms to rest your head, each with its own character.

Wake in the morning, pour yourself a cup of coffee and wander onto your terrace. With sea views stretching out to touch the mountains in the distance, we can’t think of many better sights to start your day. You won’t tire of the view, so after a spot of breakfast, freshen up in your outdoor shower and sink into your infinity pool, gaze out over the ocean and enjoy a moment of quiet reflection.

If you can tear yourself away from this home, there’s much to be enjoyed in the local area – not least the silky sands and turquoise waters of the beach, which is just an eight-minute stroll away.
