Bird song, cicadas and the occasional braying donkey are the only noises you can expect to hear whilst lazing on the sprawling terraces or wandering around the well maintained grounds. The interior is cool and elegant in classical French style; a charming fireplace, marble floors and comfortable sofas. The sitting room opens out onto a flagstone terrace for outside dining and steps drop down to the pool and the well maintained grounds. There are wonderful views of the Corsican hinterland from here with gentle rolling hills and the spectacular Massif de Bavella beyond.

I Vaddi also boasts a separate adjacent guest cottage with its own en-suite shower room, perfect for grandparents or a couple needing more privacy from family or friends.

We’ve had a lovely week here at I Vaddi – a super villa – chic, rustic and very comfortable. The pool and outside area are perfect. The beaches are gorgeous and we’ve had some lovely dinners. Thank you.

The Proctor family, August 2023

Yet another wonderful week in Corsica. The villa is beautiful, wonderful pool and scenery. We made the most of all that Corsica has to offer. I’m sure we will be back next year. Thank you Roberto for being a great Simpson host.

Simpson Traveller, August 2023

We have had the most amazing stay at I Vaddi. What a wonderful villa, and what a wonderful setting! We loved spending time in the outside space – so peaceful and relaxing. We only wish we could have stayed longer! A huge thank you to Roberto for all his help during our stay, and all of the thoughtful details. A huge thank you to everyone and we can’t wait to be back again.

The Briggs McAllister family, August 2023

I Vaddi is a beautiful villa with amazing location and fantastic pool and outdoor area with plenty of areas to sit in and out of the sun. Corsica is a stunning island with old, charming villages and incredible beaches. A must for everyone!

Courtney, August 2023

Fabulous, really loved the house and pool. One outstanding restaurant was the Auberge de Sanglier in Zonza. What a location!

Colin & Jane, July 2023

Properly vetted properties, lots of help on arrival and all the hassles of booking removed – what's not to love?Mrs.

Scholey, August 2019

What a fantastic two weeks we’ve had at Villa I Vaddi. There’s so many amazing things to do in Corsica, a couple of our highlights included walking to the Cascades (although beware it’s a steep climb down/up), tree climbing at Extreme Sud (a very challenging and rewarding experience – the course takes you onto a cliff face which is extremely high up but you do get a fantastic view of the lake). Our favourite beach which was a bit more off the beaten track was Balistra – reserve a table at the beach bar to have moules frites – incredible. Finally, we would like to give a massive thanks to Kimberley, who went above and beyond to make our holiday perfect – from helping me get here when my travel plans went awry to giving my sister a gift on her birthday, to organising a vineyard/wine tasting tour. We really can’t thank you enough.

Niel, Josephine, Yasmin, Penelope & Georgia -, July 2018

Another fantastic holiday in Corsica. I Vaddi is a beautiful villa, well equipped and in a quiet and peaceful location. Thank you Kimberly for looking after us so well.

The Fooks family, July 2018

The villa was stunning. Kimberly the holiday rep was amazing! Corsica has so much to offer - the beaches, the vineyards, the mountains, the local food, the waterfalls and rock pools, the extreme high wire experience, sailing and snorkelling around the islands off Bonafacio, hot springs, not to mention the great supermarkets and walking that we didn't even get chance to do.

Mr Emmott, July 2018

Thank you for another amazing Corsican holiday. This is our 4th trip to Corsica, but our first at I Vaddi and we love it. Thank you, Kimberley, for all of your help and suggestions for places to eat. We didn’t explore too many beaches as we just love St Cyprien – Le Tiki is really good – you can hire sun loungers for the day, book a table for lunch and generally have a very relaxing time. The villa is lovely. We all had such a relaxing time and we will definitely be back here again when we next come to Corsica. Thank you, Kimberley, and thank you I Vaddi.

Mark, Emma, Millie & William, July 2018

This is our second holiday with Simpson's and once again it was seamless from start to finish. Thank you.

Mrs Jones, September 2017

Our holiday rep, Kimberley, was fantastic, enthusiastic and knowledgeable - she helped to make our holiday perfect. Our villa was everything we had hoped for. We will certainly be returning to Corsica and would definitely use Simpson Travel again. Thank you.

Mrs Simonini, August 2017

The Simpson Travel Team is without exception up there with the best.
