Overview
Historically, the Cape Corsins emigrated . In the 19th century many settled in South America, Puerto Rico , Santo Domingo, Venezuela ... Some are made strain , others returned to their villages once made a fortune , and built sumptuous villas or " Palazzi " that is now called " American houses"
One of them is the Castle Cagninacci San Martino di Lota .
It offers the experience , unique in Corsica, to stay with the descendants of those who built the castle. On the site of a Capuchin convent , the great-grandfather of Bertrand and Florence Cagninacci has built an impressive neo- Tuscan palace . The former convent of the 17th century remain the chapel, now empty , and some monks' cells .
Bertrand , Florence, and their mother offer 4 guest rooms ( all with private bathroom , bedroom also has a splendid private terrace), in their home wonderfully romantic master.
Cagninacci Castle is located in 3 acres of private wooded chestnut , olive , giant magnolias, fragrant orange and lime trees whose fragrance is irresistibly catchy in June . You have breakfast in the shade of plane trees with bread and homemade jam, canistrelli ( traditional biscuits) while enjoying the spectacular view of the sea in fine weather, you can see the islands of Elba and Capraia , and very rarely the Italian coast. If time does not permit, you will be served in the spectacular dining room.
In the picturesque village of San Martino di Lota , there are 2 restaurants where you can walk . Opportunities abound for walking as for excursions by car. For swimming , the sea is only 8 km .
San Martino di Lota is at the door of Cap Corse, St Florent , Desert Agriate and beautiful but very misunderstood Castagniccia , "the heart of Corsica ."

SUGGESTIONS FOR REVIEWERS
Describe the key elements of the accommodations : decor, hospitality, value, housekeeping, setting, and/or meals. What were the highlights of your stay? A comfortable bed and elegant decor? The convenient location? The delicious breakfasts and afternoon snacks? The hospitality of the innkeepers? Extra amenities and/or advice for business or vacation travel? If in the area again, would you return? Recommend to friends?
Be both honest and fair : We feature various types of accommodation - some more luxurious than others ... Criteria of charm vary from person to person
We offer a wide selection of quality guesthouses for all tastes and budgets
It is not fair to compare a guesthouse that charges €75 a night with a nearby property that charges double or triple that rate.
Things can go wrong in the best of guesthouses, and the difference between an average place and a great one is how the innkeepers address the problem when something unexpected occurs.
Avoid hyperbole : Reviews that include only effusive praise or complete condemnation are rarely helpful or even credible.
Innkeeper responses : There are at least two sides to every story (often three!). The reviews posted on the Charming Guest Rooms website are taken seriously by innkeepers.
We reserve the right for innkeepers to respond to any review.
