The Area
Located in the largely unspoilt area of Sari-Solenzara, about a third of the way up Corsica's east coast, Canella is well placed for exploring many of the island's great treasures, from picturesque seafront towns to the spellbinding forested mountains of the interior.
Canella is also a great spot for beach lovers: apart from the rocky sea access and limpid waters at the bottom of the garden, there are plenty of sandy beaches to enjoy in the vicinity, not least Plage de Canella, whose idyllic arc of sand is just a couple of minute's walk away. This beach is also home to a couple of restaurants, meaning that guests wishing to dine out need not worry about driving. A few kilometres up the coast is the lovely bay of Cala d'Oro, while to the south, just a 5/10-minute drive away are the sandy beaches of Favone and Targo.
Keen walkers have many wonders to discover on their doorstep and a great place to start is the dramatically beautiful Polischellu waterfalls, tucked away in the glorious mountain scenery.
Porto Vecchio, with its charming old town centre, natural harbour, shops, bars, street market and restaurants, is just 45 minutes to the south, and Bonifacio, one of Corsica's most dramatically positioned, historic and panoramic towns is just an hour away.
For those who love adventurous driving, a trip over the mountains to the island's capital, Ajaccio, is recommended. The town itself has much to offer visitors, who come away delighted to have visited the birthplace of the great Napoleon.
