Wonderfully built and kempt place quite high up in a lovely mountain village, perfect and kind service, clean and innovative. Plus the drive east of there, if you travel via Ghisoni, is absolutely spectacular! (Going up to 1300m through forests and valleys, winding road)

It was a very cozy secluded place! The host super nice!!

Air conditioning a great bonus. The room and bath room clean and comfortable. Shower excellent. Fridge and cooking facilities good. Breakfasts very good. Location great for walking to local villages and short drives to Corte and it's environs especially Restonica gorge.

It was wonderful having a delicious breakfast delivered to our door each morning and sitting on our patio listening to the bird song in this quiet little retreat. The English speaking owner was very friendly and helpful.

The hosts were very nice and friendly. The view of the mountains was amazing and the breakfast was superb. There was dedicated parking and we loved the overall ambiance.

Beautiful little cabins with all equipment including a kitchenette and great shower, smack in the middle of the hiking area of Corsica. Ideally situated to go to all the hot spots, and conveniently located from Corte. Very helpful owner who is showing his passion and pride for what he has realized and is truly thankful for your business. No worries about contaminations here, the owner is amazingly dedicated in spraying everything that has been touched by anyone incl supermarket purchases, keeps social distance and the cabins even have an extra device installed to refresh the air (aircon available but obviously does not refresh the air). Top stay!

Quiet and calm, absolutely lovely little hotel with separate little houses, one per room. Adorable eye for detail and an absolute pleasure! We were even visited by an adorable cuddly grey cat during the morning breakfast on our own terrace :) Unfortunately we only had one night to stay. Will definitely come back for more! Corse at its absolute best!

Everything!! Location is great- very quiet and close to amazing hikes in the area. Owner is very friendly, helpful and organized! Chalets are beautiful and very comfortable, bed is very big, comfy and unusual (like it's floating in the air), amazing shower, little kitchen with everything you need. Every morning owner brought us breakfast to our room. Breakfast was generous and delicious! We loved everything about this place and will definitely come back soon and recomend this to everyone!

We chose Villa Praesidio for its central location in the more northern part of Corsica, and because of its high rating. Villa Praesidio's location was ideally suited for day-trips to Cap Corse, and the coasts west and east of it. The bungalow is cute (yet small) and comfortable. The owner (and builder of the B&B) was very friendly and helpful... he carried our two 23kg pieces of luggage from the car to the bungalow down steep steps. We can highly recommend this B&B despite our comments on the breakfast / price.

We loved absolutely everything about this place. The chalet was well equiped, wi-fi worked well, parking was available, the location is good - trust me, you will not want to go anywhere except of the comfy bed :) I loved the style, you could see that someone really took care about every small detail to make guests feel really comfortable. Speaking about the cleanliness, I can’t omit how good the towells smelled. The breakfast were served directly to our chalet. Seriously, every single detail was so much over our expectations and plus it was enviro-friendly. I appreciate how organized and friendly the owner was. He (and his wife?) are doing really excellent job. If possible, I would rate it 100/10p. Honestly, I felt like a princess surrounded by a breathtaking nature and would recommend this place to everyone.
