  • Peaceful site above Serra-di-Ferro, with sea views on two sides
  • Walk to Cupabia beach in half an hour; 10 mins' drive to Porto Pollo
  • In a pine forest with outdoor pool and snack bar for drinks and meals
If you’re coming to the south-west of Corsica for sea views, U Turracconu should certainly be on your radar. This peaceful family-friendly site in the hills above Serra-di-Ferro has views out to sea on two sides: looking out over the the Gulf of Valinco in one direction and gorgeous Cupabia beach in the other. You’ll be able to look out at those sea views from several areas of the site, including the open-air pool and the picnic area – and when you’re ready for a closer look you can get down to the beach in half an hour or so by walking along the footpath. Heading in the other direction, Porto Pollo (10 minutes’ drive) has another lovely beach with various watersports options and boat rentals, plus a good range of beach bars and restaurants. Don’t feel like heading out? You’ll be welcome to hang around on site, relaxing at the pool (with a poolside snack bar for refreshments) or flopping out in the TV room. You may also like to venture to the site’s snack bar for cool drinks, light meals, homemade pizzas and Corsican charcuterie platters – just the thing for a sunset drink or a meal under the stars. This is a laidback site that welcomes kids and dogs and has plenty of space to relax. The pine forest setting means that there’s a good amount of shade to keep you cool, and you’ll also have room to put up an awning or gazebo if you like. Each pitch has an electric hookup and you’ll have access to useful facilities including wifi, a launderette and a bathroom block with toilets and showers.

Local attractions

This is a particularly excellent corner of Corsica for beach lovers. Cupabia beach (half an hour’s walk/10 minutes’ drive) is a real stunner, a wild stretch with white sand and shimmering turquoise water. Meanwhile, the beach in Porto Pollo (10 minutes’ drive) is a slightly (but not much) busier place with beach bars, restaurants and a sailing club that has paddleboard and windsurfing rentals as well as towed tube rides or waterski lessons. You can also rent boats at the harbour. For more beach time, head to places like Plage de Capu Laurosu (35 minutes) or La Plage d’Argent (45 minutes). There are also several stables nearby that can sort you out with horseback outings on the beach. For something a bit different, look for prehistoric remains at Filitosa (15 minutes), meet native animals at Olva Natural Park (35 minutes) or have a soak in the Thermal Baths of Baracci (half an hour).
