WILD BEACHES
Saleccia, Lotu and beyond
Saleccia and Lotu — two of Corsica's most pristine beaches — lie about thirty-minute from the house. Both are reached by 4×4 or mountain bike along an 11 km track through the Agriates, or by boat from Saint-Florent harbour.
Ghignu and Fiume Santu, further along the coast, are quieter still — long stretches of white sand and crystal-clear water, far from the crowds.
4×4 and mountain bike rental can be arranged from the property.
DESERT & HIKING
Walk straight from the door into the maquis
The Agriates desert unfolds just beyond the house, offering endless trails for walking, running or mountain biking through preserved landscapes.
A path through the Agriates leads toward Monte Genova (420 m) — one of the highest points of the Agriates, with open views across the desert, the gulf and the sea beyond.
SAINT-FLORENT
The harbour fifteen minutes away
Saint-Florent is the harbour town of northern Corsica — a working marina, a Genoese citadel, and seafood restaurants along the quay. Wednesday mornings, the open-air market spills over the old town.
From the port, private boats leave throughout the day for the secret beaches of the Agriates — a thirty-minute crossing to Saleccia or Lotu.
Private boat charters can be organised on request.
WINE COUNTRY
Patrimonio, twenty-five minutes from the house
The Patrimonio appellation, one of Corsica's oldest AOCs, lies a short drive from the estate. Vineyards stretch across the Nebbio hills, producing celebrated reds, whites and rosés.
Several Patrimonio estates open their doors to private tastings, on request.
- Domaine Pinelli
- Clos Teddi
- Giacometti
WELLBEING & RETREATS
A house for slowing down
A 90 m² yoga deck under the holm oaks, a cedar-lined sauna and a massage room — the property offers a quiet setting for slow mornings and personal practice.
For private groups, Casa Battagliola also hosts yoga retreats, wellbeing weeks and small gatherings — up to 18 guests, with full use of the house and grounds.
Massages, yoga sessions and tailored programmes can be arranged on request.
