A peaceful and lovely rural setting
A peaceful, private cottage with a lovely countryside feel.
Nice sitting area under the shade as well as full sun lounging area. The fig trees were alive with birds and butterflies eating the ripe fruits, on our visit mid-September.
Everything we needed was provided, with good kitchen facilities and a comfortable lounge/reading area.
Vero has a local bar but seems to be only open in summer months; the Post Office(located in Town Hall) does not provide stamps for the UK. Nearest supermarket is Spar about 20 minutes drive away towards Ajaccio, with a specialist Corsican food shop at junction village road with main road, where also a bar.
Two circular marked walks from cottage/village, through lovely wooded slopes.
Days out included Restonica Gorge; beach west of Ajaccio then lunch in town; drive south past Porticcio along coastal road to Cala D'Orzo then return via Propriano.
Advice - we saw the owner just once, on arrival - check the Wifi router is in the house before she leaves (as she lives in Ajaccio).
A lovely place which we would certainly return to.
