U Muzzelo

U Muzzelo

, Route du Couvent Saint François, Oletta, Corsica.

U Muzzelo is a chambre d'hote (bed and breakfast) on the edge of the scattered village of Oletta, just five miles from the harbour and marina at St Florent, and a little further from Bastia. It's a beautiful rural location surrounded by olive trees and the Corsican maquis.

The garden of U Muzzelo is nudged up against the countryside, and has a swimming pool and a terrace with sunbeds and an area for having breakfast in the sunshine. And the breakfasts are a special feature here! There's plenty of it, plenty of choice, and in particular it's an opportunity to try out some Corsican specialities.

Clean, bright, fresh bedrooms are the order of the day and they each have a modern en-suite bathroom. There's air-conditioning and heating (so you could visit in winter too) as well as a flat-screen television. There's also a common room where guests have the use of a fridge, microwave and kettle.

The friendly owners are experts on Corsica and will give their guests lots of information about sightseeing and restaurants in the surrounding area.
