A home in Corsica: a holiday home that’s ready year round

Whether you’re overlooking its idyllic beaches, next to its steep mountains, or surrounded by scrubland, the Isle of Beauty is even more stunning when you can admire it from the terrace or garden of a prestigious home. Purchasing a luxury home in Corsica is all the rage right now since the island, whose inhabitants speak with a sing-song accent, is a mere five-hour yacht ride away from mainland France. In addition to the enchanting setting, the island’s gastronomy is firmly rooted in family tradition.
