U Pozzu is a small family hotel in the village of Evisa, sometimes also 'Pearl of the Mountains', at 850 meters above sea level. Here, real rural life exists parallel to that on offer by overrun coastal Corsican resorts. Lovers of nature and authenticity between Aitone Forest and Spelunca Gorges will have found their perfect place here! The house is simple; what matters here are some incredible panoramic views over the Gulf of Porto-and mountain pleasures-forget eating well after a good walk! This is one swimming pool base camp from which to discover all inside rugged island interiors.
