Beautiful location, amazing villa

Perfect place to get away and enjoy what Corsica has to offer. Lovely pool, beautiful views out to sea and into the mountains. Perfect location for hiking, beach trips, doing nothing, or exploring the nearby towns and villages. You will need to drive at least 20 minutes to get to restaurants and supermarkets but there are a few towns nearby with lots of great food available. Our host Danielle was extremely friendly and very accommodating and helped us with finding the places we need to.

Breathtaking views in peaceful surroundings

Get away from it all in this lovely accomodation set on a hillside with amazing views. Dining on the terrace above the pool with the sun setting in the distance is amazing. The host is very friendly and helpful and makes you feel very welcome with homemade treats. A car is essential as there are no shops near.

Beautiful place and lovely host

We had a very pleasant stay at Urtaca, the house is beautiful, very well equipped and with attractive furnitures. We enjoyed the pool and the garden much. The view from the terrace over the hills to the sea is fantastic. It took us only about 10 Minute to the next sandy beach. Danielle is a fabulous host, she took care for an unforgettable stay. Thanks a lot, Danielle!

Fantastic time in a gorgeous house and location

We spent 10 days as a family (2 adults and 3 teens) exploring Corsica for the first time and couldn't have wished for a better location, house and host. Danielle is very friendly and was making us feel really welcome all the way through our stay (including making a cake for our oldest son's birthday - definitely beyond the line of duty). The house is beautiful and stately with a fantastic pool; and in a great location with a view of both sea and mountains - a good base to explore the north part of the island (you can hike straight from the village, or get to lots of other locations within 30-50min, including Corte, the Agriate Desert, Calvi, Isle de Rousse and much more.) The kids rated it as the best holiday house they stayed in - not sure what else to add :), would definitely go back!

Idyllic and homey feeling amids aazing nature

The house is located in idyllic urtaca between plants, beautiful stone houses, frindly people and corsican dogs. Danielle picked us up for the last meters of the drive (narrow streets make navigation the first time not super easy). She showed us the house ans handeln over the Keys. The house and the viel was as beautiful as the pictures promised. Big kitchen well equipped, beautiful Terrasse for outside eating...amazing heared Pool. Linsen, towels, hairdryer all provided. Danielle Was an amazi g host who andwered question, welcomed us. All in all 12 out of 10 points for this house and its owner. Who likes to be in a non touristic spot and doesn't mind the drive through narrow streets will love this

Wonderful villa, gorgeous views, charming village, very friendly hostess

We had an absolutely wonderful vacation in Urtaca, hosted by Danielle, who is the nicest hostess we have had many years of VRBO travel. She really made us feel at home in her little village and was always ready to help (living close by) and share her knowledge of the area and culture. She welcomed us with award winning, delicious local honey and breads, and we enjoyed meeting her dogs. The town of Urtaca is very charming, perched in the hills and off the tourist track. We went hiking directly from the house. The pool is very clean and refreshing. The views are spectacular from every room. We enjoyed swimming at the nearby beaches and hiking along the sea cliffs and drove to many beautiful villages along the north coast. The location is very private with no visible neighbors, and yet is a short drive to stores and various attractions. We feel it is our Coriscan home away from home and hope to return soon. We are still enjoying our jars of Urtacan honey.

Danielles Haus ist ein Traum! Wir haben uns selten so wohl gefühlt in unserem Urlaub. Die Lage ist perfekt. Urtaca ist ein charmantes Dorf in den Bergen, sehr ruhig, aber trotzdem gut zu erreichen und ein sehr guter Ausgangspunkt für Ausflüge im Norden Korsikas. Das Haus ist super sauber, sehr großzügig ausgestattet und ideal für eine Familie mit erwachsenen Kindern oder sogar 2 Familien. Der Pool ist riesig, die Anlage drumherum lädt ein, schöne Stunden am Haus zu verbringen. Unsere Hunde haben sich auch sehr willkommen und wohl gefühlt. Danielle ist eine hervorragende und herzliche Gastgeberin, die Kommunikation mit ihr war sehr unkompliziert. Ihre Tipps waren sehr wertvoll und ihre Freundlichkeit und Warmherzigkeit wirklich außerordentlich. Wir kommen sehr gerne wieder!

Wir hatten einen wunderschönen Urlaub in diesem außergewöhnlichen Haus. Wir haben uns selten so wohl gefühlt. Danielle ist eine sehr nette Gastgeberin, die uns von der Buchung über die Anreise bis zu unserem Aufenthalt selbst sehr unterstützte. Wir waren sehr überrascht von den kulinarischen Begrüßungsgeschenken. Auch ihre Tipps zur Wanderung nach Lama und zum Strand Ostricani waren wirklich hilfreich. Unsere Tochter liebte die Besuche von Hund und Katze und wir Erwachsenen die Ruhe und Abgeschiedenheit von Urtaca. Das Meer ist in 12 Minuten erreichbar, so dass wir fast jeden Tag zumindest kurze Ausflüge in die Umgebung machen konnten. Wir kommen gerne wieder.

Hyggelig og veludstyret feriebolig beliggende med spektakulær udsigt over bjergene og med Middelhavet i horisonten. Huset ligger i en super hyggelig og rolig lille by. Meget fin velkomst og kommunikation med værtinden Danielle som stod til rådighed under hele opholdet. Hun var særdeles hjælpsom og taler rigtig fint engelsk hvilket var en stor hjælp da vi ikke taler fransk. I byen ligger der en rigtig god og venlig slagter der kan anbefales. Øvrige indkøbsmuligheder ligger i køreafstand. Huset og poolen levede bestemt op til forventningerne. Et sted der varmt kan anbefales.

Formidable

La maison est en tous points conforme à l'annonce, Nous étions 2 couples donc bien évidemment beaucoup d'espace puisque la propriété dispose de 4 belles chambres. La piscine est grande, un bel aménagement autour, nous en avons plus que profité. Du calme, une vue exceptionnelle, un village corse typique où nous avons été très bien accueillis, tout a été réuni pour des vacances parfaites. Danielle est tout simplement charmante et pleine d'attention. En résumé, 5 étoiles largement justifiées.
