The Area
Casa di Lume sits on the little beach-flanked promontory of Pianottoli on the south coast of Corsica, just a 15-minute walk from the idyllic sandy by of Plage de la Tour. There are many other sandy bays to choose from in the area, some walkable, others a short drive.
There's a restaurant less than 10 minutes' walk away, while other amenities, including a wider selection of eateries, can be found in nearby Pianottoli, a 10-minute drive.
A must-see for anyone staying at Casa di Lume is Bonifacio, one of Corsica's most dramatically positioned and picturesque towns. Teetering perilously on a high cliff above the sea it offers sublime views over to Sardinia and some good restaurants and bars.
Less than an hour's drive northwest is the panoramically positioned, medieval town of Sartène, whose pretty labyrinth of streets gives an idea of Corsican life away from the coastline.
Heading up the east coast one comes to a series of delightful beaches, including those of Santa Giulia, Tamaricciu and Palombaggia, and Porto Vecchio, another of Corsica's many charming towns offering a good selection of shops, bars and restaurants and a nice old town centre looking over the large natural harbour.
Further afield on the west coast is the island's capital, Ajaccio, which is well worth a visit, not least so you can say that you've been to the birthplace of the great Napoleon.
