If your idea of a beach house conjures up images of a simple wooden cabin, then you’re in for a wonderful surprise. The Beach House is a generously-sized villa, elegantly contemporary and superbly equipped, with a large heated swimming pool and a self-contained guest suite ideal for an accompanying nanny, grandparents or teenagers looking for an extra degree of independence. The layout works particularly well for two families or a multi-generation group, with a total of five bedrooms in three distinct areas for maximum privacy.

Lovely as the interiors are, the Beach House is all about outdoor living. There’s sun, shade and space for all on the pool deck, complete with an outdoor area for your morning coffee or pre-dinner G&T. A rocky path leads through the grounds to a wooden beach deck, where you’ll find a paddle board and more seating, and then directly to the sand, less than a minute from the house. There’s a very good little restaurant here in high summer, with several alternatives in nearby Abartello, just five minutes away by car. If you prefer to eat in, you can barbecue to the sound of the waves on your beach deck, or pop out to pick up some classic Corsican pizzas, wafer thin and crisped to perfection in a traditional wood-fired oven. For more sophisticated dining and spectacular beaches, Propriano is a short drive away.

Sold out on your dates?…Villa A Liccia is an ideal alternative for a group of up to 10, similar in style and quality and also just a short walk to the beach.

Mrs Diane Akin, September 2023

We spent an exceptional family vacation in this beautiful home. The generosity of the appliances is exceptional. Great memories.

Ron, August 2023

What a beautiful villa! Thank you so much for this experience. Corsica is stunning. We celebrated my dad’s and brother’s Father’s Day and my nephew’s first ever holiday. Thank you again.

The Garnty family, June 2023

We celebrated our 30th wedding anniversary here with our three sons and their girlfriends, what a magical week. Thank you for this amazing experience.

The Webb family, May 2023

We have spent a fabulous week with family and friends! What a lovely villa and an incredible view! We hope to return.

The Matt family, April 2023

Fantastic villa in a beautiful beach location. Villa is modern, very well equipped with cool contemporary furnishings. Pool and gardens are well maintained and relaxing. There is easy access to the beach at the end of the garden. Top quality stay.

Roger Lake, June 2022

I loved everything. Will definitely book again.

Dafna Dempsey, May 2022

The Beach House lived up and in many ways exceeded our expectations. The photos on the website matched the property perfectly. Everything needed was exactly to hand – much thought and care had gone into the accommodation to make time away as blissful as possible. It was an excellent choice for an all age family trip to celebrate hubby’s big birthday. We had the beach almost to ourselves with glorious sunsets. Pool was a delight and used every day. We will be checking out the Simpson website first when looking to book another holiday . Thank you and congratulations to whole team for excellent experience from start to finish.

The Short family, October 2019

Probably our best holiday ever! The Beach House was an outstanding choice for celebrating our Golden Wedding anniversary with our family and our young grandson.

John Phillips, September 2019

Reliability, dependability, confidence in delivery, high standards, excellent reps, first rate accommodation – that’s Simpson Travel. Thank you.

Tim Clarke, June 2019

Beautiful villa and an excellent location. Our family consisting of a 1-year-old, a 3-year-old, mother, father and grandparents all thoroughly enjoyed the entire package. Special mention should go to the three friendly and very helpful Simpson representatives at Figari airport who helped us on arrival and again when we departed.

The Cotter family, June 2019

A wonderful house with everything two families with young children need. The house was spacious, well-appointed, great location and it felt very safe. Definitely need a car though! We thoroughly enjoyed our time at the Beach House – reality lived up to the photos.

Szotten, May 2019

Our choice of Corsican properties is as diverse as the island itself, ranging from simple seaside charm to genuine luxury and style. Much of our portfolio is privately owned, and price alone is therefore not a universal guide. We contract all our accommodation in person, and each property has its individual appeal. To help you make the right choice based on your own priorities, we have devised a simple grading guide to be considered in conjunction with each individual property description, awarding up to a maximum of five stars for the below categories.

The Gulf of Valinco makes for an inspiring holiday destination – and not just for the wonderful beaches. Propriano is one of the oldest island resorts, its marina lined with cafés and restaurants. South lies Campomoro and, to the north, in the folds of the Taravo Valley, stand the menhirs of Filitosa. Inland, you’ll find the mountain villages of the Alta Rocca, below the Bavella Peaks. And don’t miss the ancient capital of the south, Sartène, a favourite with wine buffs.
