A hamlet of restored rural buildings in the Ortolo valley in Corsica reopened in June as A Mandria di Murtoli. Guests can stay in a former sheepfold, stable or barn, or one of five rooms in the main house. Three of the smaller properties have private pools, all rooms have terraces and there is a big shared pool. The buildings have been refurbished by Corsican craftspeople in a minimalist Mediterranean style, using local materials.

"The white pebble beach at Paralia Fakistra is only accessible by foot, providing a secluded experience, but it's backed by a freezing cold waterfall that cools you down after the dusty, challenging coast path route."
