Le Pré aux Biches

Southern Corsica


The quilted, sumptuously furnished Mongolian yurts are the star attraction on this peaceful, meadow-like organic farm, 2km west of Zonza. Larger safari-style tent lodges are also available, and everyone has their own dedicated toilet and showers in a shared block. They serve breakfast (€6) and dinner (€22) using products from the farm. Note that access to electricity is limited.
