What We Think
On arriving at Villa la Rocca, you will instantly be blown away by the position, the space and the panoramic view. Perched high on the Fromentica hillside, just below the rocky ridge that gives the property its name, the house has views over the whole bay of St Florent back to the Cap Corse mountains, with the Désert des Agriates to the west. Bright and airy throughout, the interior is tastefully furnished in a country style and has been arranged with great attention to detail, giving the
house a welcoming and homely feel. Well cared for, the gardens are large with Mediterranean shrubs and expanses of lawn. There are various quiet areas to relax in whilst soaking up the view including a lovely pool area with a pleasantly shaded outdoor lounge and a new summer kitchen. A footpath from the gardens will lead you through the surrounding fragrant maquis and along the hillside – a favourite pastime for previous guests. When you eventually tear yourself away from this very comfortable house, with its terraces, pool, large garden and the magnificent view, the beach and St Florent’s restaurants are just a short drive away.
