Stay at Hotel de la Paix, a family-run hotel with 62 rooms, a bar and TV lounge. It occupies a large stone building constructed by the Casanova family in 1932, though it’s now the Lanoir family who provide the warm welcome.



We stay in superior rooms, which include a balcony, air conditioning, a hairdryer and a bathtub, and eat dinner at the nearby restaurant, U Passa Tempu, which serves traditional local dishes, such as Corsican charcuterie, cannelloni with brocciu (Corsican cheese) and sautéed veal with olives.
