What We Think
Just below the village of Lumio lies Villa U Granu, a charming and traditional property. The beauty of the villa lies in its spacious, peaceful surroundings with sublime views of Calvi Citadel across the bay. The lawned garden offers a distinctly Mediterranean flavour planted with palms, jasmine, oleander and a beautiful bougainvillea that trails over a pergola shading the terrace – the grounds are truly stunning and there is plenty of space for children to run around. Homely and perhaps a little quirky, the villa is comfortable and spacious with ample room in which to relax. The open plan living areas are particularly spacious, comprising of a television/study corner with an assortment of books and a large lounge/dining area from where an open staircase leads to the upper floor. A variety of ornaments collected from the owner's travels are scattered on tables and paintings adorn the walls throughout the ground floor of the villa, giving U Granu an eclectic and somewhat bohemian style. French doors lead to the large terrace complete with teak table and chairs and on the other side of the house, other doors lead onto the barbecue area. Just a 5 minute drive from Lumio's Arinella plage with its small sandy coves and beach restaurant, and within easy reach of Calvi, U Granu is a favourite with couples and families.
