Description
Lovingly restored to retain its rustic character, and thoughtfully designed to incorporate modern comforts, this charming house is a far cry from its original use as a shepherds’ dwelling. Set in lovely lawned gardens, it is one of a select few villas on the spacious Murtoli Estate, and is enviably close to its private sand beach and intimate little coves. With estate activities ranging from horse riding and mountain biking to nature walks and water sports, and facilities including three restaurants and an al fresco massage spa, this inviting villa has its own hammam-style sauna and a generously sized free-form pool, surrounded by timber sun decks and fenced for family safety.A summer kitchen and barbecue are ideal additions for outdoor living, and a mini bergerie in the grounds forms a guest annexe, offering extra privacy for up to four. There are three bedrooms in the main house, each with en suite bathroom, and an open-plan living/dining room is elegantly furnished in traditional style. The tranquil estate is 20km from Sartène and a short drive from Bonifacio, with regular sailings to Sardinia from its cosmopolitan harbour.
