About this property

The property is situated on a hill overlooking the Straight of Bonifacio and the islands of the Levezzi. Some of the best beaches are a short drive away, 10 minutes to the nearest 15 minutes to the famous unspoilt windsurfing beach in the bay of Liscia and Porto Pozzo. The charming town of Santa Teresa di Gallura is five minutes drive away with all the shopping facilities required. There are great open markets in the streets during the evenings in the summer and lots of super restaurants to eat at with very reasonable prices. The busy port town of Palau serving the isles of the Maddelana is 20 minutes drive to the east and very lively throughout the summer months offering many cosy bars and restaurants.
The property is in keeping with traditional Sardinian houses. The garden is rustic, and is sometimes frequented by wild boars, which forage and dig in the garden. While we endeavor to maintain the garden. The property is not fenced as the natural inhabitants are allowed to roam free.

Lovely vacation

This is a very comfortable totally equipped villa located in a very quite and private area near a pleasant small town Santa Teresa di Gallura. Where you can find plenty of cafes and some good restaurants. There is enough shadow in the big garden and since the village lies on a hilltop, there is always some breeze, so it is not as hot as at the coast and the outside shower is a remarkable invention, very useful in hot days. The views are fantastic, specially from the raised terrace. Kitchen is nice and well equipped, but we used mostly BBQ. Leaving room stays cool even in hot days (if one keeps shutters closed). Bedrooms are big and comfortable. The villa is very independent, though the owner, John lives next door. He is are very friendly and thoughtful person, who helped with all needed information and advice. It takes only about ten minutes to the nearest beaches but it's an advantage of the location that both east and west sides are easily reachable. we traveled also deep in the island and to Corsica. If we had not traveled so much children would be bored We had a lovely vacation here and would not hesitate to come back.

This is comfortable well decorated property. It was immaculately clean and well presented. This villa provided comfortable accomodation with all the facilities that a person from the UK might require (i.e kettle!!!). The English owner lives next door and if there are any problems he is only too happy to help The villa is located on a cul de sac on a private estate at the top of a steep hill overlooking the archipelago. It is very quiet and peaceful and we enjoyed a relaxing holiday here . Some excellent beaches whether at the Capo Testa (either side depending on wind direction) or Santa Reparata at St Theresa or Palau or Rena Magiore on SP 90 or elswhere are in in easy driving reach as are trips to Magdalena and if you want to top up on your Prada or visit your yacht in Porto Cervo it is about 50 minute drive. St Theresa is a pleasant small town with good restaurants less than a 10 minute drive away The owner is a keen windsurfer and the beaches nearby provide ample scope for this sport. We enjoyed a really nice week here and would not hesitate to come back.

Wish we were there!

We were lucky to get a last minute booking at this little villa in the hills near charming Santa Teresa Gallura. Owner John, was very helpful and recommended some fab beaches - not hard as all the beaches were fab. The villa was exceptionally clean and well-cared for. You are independent and private although the owner's villa is close enough if you need anything. Best bits are sitting up on the terrace crafted amid the huge granite boulders gazing out to the bluest of blue seas having a sundowner after a hard day at the beach, or having breakfast on the terrace while planning your day. There was a great little beach restaurant at Porto Pozzo with fantastic views, great food and terrible service! Worth going though - can't remember the name but drive in the day about 10 mins from house and book for the evening. A great place to stay with a knowledgeable, helpful but not intrusive and fun owner - he's very sporty too so can advise on the best places for windsurfing etc.

Die Lage, mit einem traumhaften Blick auf das la Maddalena Archipel und das Haus mit dem großen Grundstück waren sehr schön. Man mussndie Ruhe lieben. Für uns war es genau richtig. Man ist auf jeden Fall auf ein Auto angewiesen. ( einkaufen, Strand, Sehenswürdigkeiten) Die Hauskeeperin war sehr freundlich und extrem hilfsbereit. Sie sprach nur italienisch, aber mit google Übersetzter ging es super. Leider gab es den Holzbockkäfer in den Dachbalken, die ununterbrochen Geräusche machten und zum Teil aus den Balken fielen. Das Mobiliar könnte eine Erneuerung gebrauchen, da es sehr muffig in den Schränken und Räumen roch. Trotzdem haben wir die Zeit genossen und würden nochmal hinfahren, wenn der Kammerjäger die Tiere in den Griff bekommen hat.

About the host

Hosted by John Pickett

Very relaxed. I do not bother the guests unless they have a problem or seek advice.

Why they chose this property

It is probably in the top ten of properties to rent in the area with comfortable accommodation in a very quite location with views to the sea and very few mosquitos as there is always a breeze which they do not like.
