About this property

We look forward to sharing this magical place with you and your friends and family. The house has been in our family for over 50 years and has a truly special place in our hearts.

The house is on the lake of Teppe Rosse a very quiet, private and secluded place with no immediate neighbours.

The house is very kids friendly - our girls are 11 and 12. We are 5km from the local village of Aleria and 7km from the beach. We normally go to the beach everyday when we are at the house but with the salt water swimming pool in the garden you might not even want to do that!

The sunsets over the mountains are simply amazing!!

A very special holiday home

We (6 people plus dog) enjoyed a most relaxing week at Michala’s holiday home with pool. It is set in the most beautiful surrounding with a breathtaking view of the mountains, the lake and with no immediate neighbours. Michala is most prompt to respond and a great host. We had a great time and did not want to leave.

Vue éblouissante sur les montagnes corses

Nous avons passé quelques jours merveilleux dans cette maison au bord du lac avec une vue imprenable sur les montagnes corses. Les hôtes ont répondu très rapidement à toutes nos questions lors du séjour. Ce fût très simple d'intégrer et de libérer le logement aux heures qui nous convenaient. Que le temps soit mitigé ou ensoleillé, la vue sur les montagnes avec le lac devant est vraiment un régal dès le levée du soleil. Nous n'avons pas profité de la piscine car elle n'était pas disponible à cette période de l'année. On reviendra.

Perfect peaceful house with stunning view

We had a wonderful week in this beautiful house at the end of May. It is well equipped with everything we needed and exactly as described. Our three kids (9, 12, 14 years old) loved playing in the pool and in the big garden. We enjoyed the stunning, breath taking view over the lake and the quietness and peace of the place. The big Veranda is absolutely perfect and was our favourite place to eat, relax and enjoy a glas of rose wine from Domaine de Marquiliani, a charming winery nearby. Michala is very welcoming, always reachable and she provides us with Information about great places to go in the region. We will come again.

Atemberaubend

Wir hatten mit unseren Kindern eine tolle Zeit in der Unterkunft. Wir werden noch sehr lange von der phänomenale Aussicht beim Frühstück und Abendbrot zehren. Die Lage ist ideal, wenn man eher unter sich und in Ruhe seine Zeit verbringen möchte. Jedoch sind es nur wenige Minuten mit dem Auto in den nächsten Ort in dem man Besorgungen oder einfach essen gehen kann. Die mehr als freundliche und zuvorkommende Vermieterin hat das Gesamtbild erst perfekt gemacht. Wir waren rundum zufrieden und würden definitiv wieder kommen!

Vue magnifique

La vue de la maison est magnifique sur l'étang et les montagnes, sans aucun vis à vis. Literie confortable, petit plus pour le piano. Espace extérieur avec salon et piscine au sel, agréables et fidèles aux photos. Michala s'est montrée arrangeante pour notre arrivée et réactive pour résoudre les quelques petits soucis mineurs lors de notre séjour. Merci. L'entrée dans les lieux comme le départ sont simples. En conclusion très bon séjour dans cette maison

Best lake house ever !!!

My wife and I spent a week over half term with our two daughters here and had the best vacation of our lives! We were literally mesmerised by the view each morning and evening and spent more time in the villa enjoying the tranquility than I would have expected, although we did go to the beach every day and enjoyed the great restaurants. Check in and out were very easy and the owner Michala was very helpful and responsive. We are already looking at dates to go back!

Serenity and charm. Pure relaxation.

The serene setting of this house on a large plot of land by a lake, with the mountains in the background, makes it something very special. Everything is lovingly decorated and furnished, and there is nothing missing (there is even a piano, but my husband could not be persuaded to play it...). The pool is lovely, and although it is not far to the beach (ten minutes by car), we spent several afternoons reading and sun-bathing in the large garden. Unfortunately, during our stay in Corsica, there was a heavy thunderstorm with a whole-day power cut in several tens of thousands of households. A big thank you goes to our host Michala who gave us great support by phone, SMS and with local help. Right from the very first interaction, Michala was incredibly helpful with local tips and you can tell that she really cares about her guests. Our stay was very relaxed, with beautiful evenings on the terrace outside the house.

traumhafte, sehr ruhiges Domiziel

Noch bevor wir von Corona jemals etwas gewusst hatten, haben wir das Haus schon letztes Jahr gebucht und wir haben es nicht bereut. Wir werden die Ruhe und den traumhaften Blick auf See und Berge dahinter vermissen. Neben dem geheizten Pool sind auch die vorzüglichen Angelmöglichkeiten zu erwähnen. Einziger kleiner Nachteil war, dass wir die ganze Woche über auf ein funktionierendes W-LAN verzichten mußten.

Sehr sauberes, schönes Haus direkt an einem See. Alles was man braucht für einen gelungenen Urlaub ist im Haus, das schönste ist aber die wunderbare Aussicht auf den See beim Frühstück, Abendessen oder wenn man im Pool liegt. Auch für unseren Hund ein wahres paradies. Die Hausinhaberin ist sehr nett und immer bemüht die Wünsche erfüllen und Fragen zu beantworten. Vielen dank Micaela

A wonderful idyllic place for lovely family holidays

We loved the spectacular view, the big garden with a great view and the lovely decorated house and terrace which made us feel like home away from home instantly. A car is definitely required. Thank you Michala for the helpful and nice contact and for sharing this place with our family and dog who liked the place as much as we did. Hope to come back soon!

Absolutely breathtaking setting A real gem. Tastefully decorated and a real pleasure to stay in.

The house, gardens and terrace are as gorgeous as the photo's suggest. The terrace is where we spent the most time, lazing in the shade. It’s a 3 bed property, but there are enough reception rooms that groups could comfortably stay together and enjoy their own space. The swimming pool is the real cherry on the cake. Overlooking the spectacular lake with a backdrop of snow-capped mountains that just cannot be captured in photographs. The pool was a great temperature during our 9 day stay in the middle of June ’18 (we often find other unheated villa pools so cold, but this was perfect, perhaps as it’s not too deep). It’s deep enough to jump in and swim lengths ‘chest deep’ on my husband, but has the very reassuring safety features of a pool alarm and foot ledges running along the inside for less-able little swimmers. A car is essential as it’s in a charming, rural spot. The setting is as private as it comes and incredibly peaceful. There is a road set back behind the property but it’s only used infrequently and goes unnoticed and the lake feels like it’s there just for you, with no one else around bar the horses in the distance gathered at the bank for a drink. You’re a short drive from the supermarche, beaches, shops and restaurants of Aleria or you are well based to travel a little further and explore waterfalls or take boat trips etc. The real treasures of this property are the owners. You entrust your precious annual holiday to strangers, hoping that they will take care of you - and these owners didn’t disappoint. Every communication was a genuine pleasure (of which there were many, as I’m a total chatterbox). They have the most beautifully sweet property (Air con would have been a bonus as us Brits aren’t acclimatised to warm weather, but the fans helped keep the night-time heat at bay). I’m incredibly grateful that my family got to experience it and hope to return. We are a family of 3 who have very high expectations for our one precious holiday a year. My husband has a stressful career and I’m a 24/7 carer for our daughter with complex medical needs. Sometimes high-end villas feel too precious like you can’t touch anything, or other times like you’re staying in someone else’s home with all of their possessions. That is not the case here. We like a home from home feeling, peaceful surrounding, no neighbours, light, space and a good Wifi connection. The lakehouse met all of our requirements in spades! The Millward family highly recommend.

Idyllic lakehouse

Cozy but stylish and welcoming house with a great location in the center of Corsica. Great views over the lake towards the mountains with a pool and only 5 km from the beach. Spent the nights on the patio enjoying the local rose wine and stargazing. Can’t wait to come back! Perfect place for a perfect holiday.

Fantastic Villa in Corsica

Unique property on a lake front area with no-one else around! Nicely decorated with a contemporary european touch. Superclean. Very well maintained inside and out. Spent lots of time on the lake front porch patio and in the adjacent pool. Beaches are 10min car ride away. I loved getting a pastis in the local cafe in Aleria. Great dining and the beach front restaurants and shacks. Supermarkets, bakeries are all within 10min ride. Loved it. Highly recommend it.

Wunderschönes Haus mit spektakulärem Ausblick

Wir waren im September 2 Wochen in diesem herrlichen Haus und es gab wirklich nichts was nicht gestimmt hätte. Die Terrasse ist noch viel schöner als auf den ohnehin schon schönen Fotos ersichtlich und der Ausblick ist zu jeder Tageszeit atemberaubend. Das Haus ist nett und persönlich eingerichtet und wir haben uns sofort wohl gefühlt. In der gut ausgestatteten Küche kommen auch Hobbyköche auf ihre Kosten. 1x in der Woche kommt eine sehr nette Hausdame, die putzt, die Betten frisch bezieht und Handtücher wechselt. Sie hat einen kleinen Caterinservice und uns einen Abend für wenig Geld sehr lecker bekocht. Michala, die Besitzerin ist unglaublich freundlich und hilfsbereit. Ihre Tipps waren Gold wert und sie ist jederzeit ansprechbar. Korsika selbst ist eine traumhaft schöne Insel für Wanderer, Radfahrer, oder auch nur Strandlieger. Für uns eine echte Entdeckung - wir kommen sicher wieder. Danke an Michala für die herrliche Zeit in ihrem Haus und den schnellen und unkomplizierten Support. Jutta&Tom mit Lotte dem Dackel, der auch unbedingt wieder nach Korsika will....

Beautiful and peaceful; perfect for families

Our family of five spent an unforgettable vacation at the lake house. The site is stunning with views over the lake and the mountains in the background, and no-one around. The owners have done a terrific job furnishing the outdoor space and landscaping. We spent a lot of time there eating, relaxing, napping, playing board games, swimming, exercising on the grass, meeting with friends who visited etc. The house had all the essentials for a pleasant stay. We loved having the opportunity to be in a quiet spot while having the chance to get easily to shopping and activities. There's a lot to do nearby including going to the beach, kayaking on the river, enjoying nice meals at restaurants, visiting the Roman ruins of Aleria and the museum, taking day trips to go hiking or enjoying other places along the coast. One week was not enough and we'd love to come back!

Amazing vacation house in Aleria, Corsica

We just loved our vacation time spent in this lake house, the view overlooking the lake is incredible and swimming in the pool while looking at the view is a must. The house is comfortable, has everything it needs and the location is perfect. Very quiet environment, great for family or friends' vacation. I would definitely go back next year. Thanks Michala for letting us use your amazing house.

Fabulous house in tranquil location

We stayed in the lake house with our children in June. The house is wonderful; sylish and laid back. The pool and patio are fantastic and the view of the lake and mountains is stunning. The house and garden are well looked after. They're in a very scenic rural location so you need a car. The nearby village of Aleria is 5 mins drive. The village has all essentials including supermarket, pharmacy, bakeries and beach. There are other amazing beaches south of Aleria and that coastline is very easy to travel around. We went as far as Bonifacio which is a gorgeous town with beautiful architecture and a spectacular cliff side location. Corsica is a stunning island and the lake house is a perfect base from which to see it.
