Bergerie Gioia allows you to immerse yourself into the traditional Corsican way of life whilst making the most of modern features such as air-conditioning, en suite bedrooms and the inviting swimming pool overlooking the surrounding prairies, just a short drive from some of Porto Vecchio’s beautiful beaches.
Indeed, located by a private cattle farm, you may awaken to the gentle sound of mooing or spot cows amongst the surrounding rocks of this charming stone bergerie. Step inside your private cottage and soak up the character with the wood-beamed ceiling and tiled floor of the open-plan lounge, dining and kitchen area, well-equipped with modern amenities including a Nespresso machine, oven and dishwasher. There are two attractive bedrooms, each one with its own pretty shower room.
Enjoy al-fresco meals by the plancha on your stone patio overlooking the countryside and laze on the decked terrace with its sun loungers before dipping into the swimming pool. If you feel like dining out, there is an old village with a couple of authentic restaurants around 3km by car or you could head down to the coast for idyllic beachside summer dining at Plage de Saint Cyprien, around a 15-minute drive away.
Swim in the turquoise coloured sea at picture-perfect spots such as Saint Cyprien, Grande Plage de Cala Rossa and pine-backed Plage de Pinarellu, partake in a range of summer watersports or just relax on the sandy shores as you take in the beauty of Corsica. The island’s interiors are just as incredible with hiking trails, natural rock pools and stunning landscapes – the Forêt de l'Ospédale can be reached within half an hour.
Venture to historic Porto Vecchio for excellent restaurants, vibrant bars, boat trips and more and try and find the time to drive further south to Bonifacio where you can experience one of Corsica’s most charming towns and exquisite natural scenery.

Location
About the surrounding area of Bergerie GioiaBergerie Gioia is located in south-eastern Corsica around 7.5km from Porto Vecchio. The stone cottage is surrounded by grazing cattle and authentic countryside. Arrive by plane into Figari (29km) or via Bastia Airport (122km) which is a 2 hour drive down the east side of the island.
The nearest village is 3km by car, home to a couple of authentic restaurants, whilst in the other direction is the main road (about 1km away) which leads north towards Lecci or south to Porto Vecchio (7.5km) and beyond. Therefore, despite its rural setting, it is relatively easy to drive around this part of the island and useful amenities, including a supermarket, can be quickly reached.
Plage de Saint Cyprien (8km) is a beautiful sandy beach backed by summer restaurants and wild landscapes and there is a little village/resort with shops and places to eat. It’s one of southern Corsica’s most loved beaches and there is a good range of seasonal watersports. Families love how the sea is clear and shelves gently.
Other idyllic spots include the pine-backed shores at Plage de Pinarellu (13km) and Grande Plage de Cala Rossa, home to an upmarket hotel. Further south are other iconic beaches including Plage de Santa Giulia (15km) and Palombaggia (18km). All of these wonderful beaches can be crowded in the height of the summer so head out early or enjoy out of season! There are yet more stretches of magnificent coastline towards Bonifacio and Figari.
Keen walkers can follow coastal trails or head inland towards the Forêt de l'Ospédale and Col de Bavella for hiking and spectacular landscapes, also a paradise for outdoor adventurists.
Closer to home, soak up the charm of bustling Porto Vecchio (7.5km) with its many restaurants and bars dotted around its historic quarter, and stroll around its picturesque marina. Venturing further south, find the time to visit Bonifacio (35km), a truly enchanting town in southern Corsica, home to an exquisite citadel with pretty restaurants, little shops and the most sensational sea views from its limestone cliffs.

Kids
Best Suited For: All AgesSouthern Corsica has always appealed to families with its pristine beaches and summer watersports. At Bergerie Gioia children can also be enchanted by the authentic countryside and may be able to spot grazing cattle near the cottage.
Around a 15-minute drive away (depending on summer traffic), Plage de Saint-Cyprien is one of the nearest beaches, much loved for its gently shelving sand, turquoise coloured water and seasonal watersports. Enjoy summer restaurants on the beach or in the little village as well as little shops.
Discover horse-riding along the coast near Porto Vecchio and Bonifacio as well as quad biking excursions, mountain biking and cycling opportunities. Young adventurists should also venture towards the Col de Bavella for hiking, rock-climbing, canyoning and more.
Alternatively, enjoy the tree-top courses at Parc Aventure de Porto-Vecchio and look out for go-karting, inflatable parks and other fun activities in and around the vibrant town of Porto Vecchio.
