Genoese mill on a cliff in Bonifacio
Come and stay in a former 13ᵉ century Genoese mill nestled on a cliff in the citadel of Bonifacio in the far south of France
An exceptional villa, built on the remains of a former Genoese mill from the 13ᵉ century, offers you a unique experience facing the sea. From the top of the Bonifacio cliffs, the 420m² mansion rises with all its singularity. It embraces a view as stunning as its past, which goes back in time to the 13ᵉ century, during the Genoese occupation.
This singular piece of Bonifacian heritage invites the past to intermingle with the present in cutting-edge contemporary refinement. Once a grain mill with a silo, it was built by the Genoese, then occupied by the military before being transformed into a singular dwelling house.
Nestled on the limestone cliffs, the mill seems to be suspended above the sea.
It offers its guests exclusive hotel services: a housekeeper and butler are on hand to attend to every detail. Accommodating up to 6 guests, the characterful villa features 3 spacious suites with king-size beds and en suite bathrooms, a large living room opening onto the sea, a fully-equipped indoor kitchen and an outdoor summer kitchen, as well as a heated indoor swimming pool sheltered under a glass roof adorned with a stone wall.
The villa features intimate openings and large picture windows, one with a view of the harbor entrance, the other of the sunset. Noble materials adorn the house: limestone laid according to ancestral know-how, precious woods, aged terracotta with refinement, tadelack and bejmats made by Marrakchi masters…
Outside, a verdant 2000m² landscaped garden sculpted by the passage of time accompanies the beauty of an infinite panorama of the sea. This unusual experience bridges the gap between past and present, luxury and authenticity, and is available all year round for stays of 2 nights or more, depending on the season.
Enjoy an enchanted interlude in the heart of a characterful villa built on the remains of an old mill overlooking the limestone cliffs.
