The Castel Brando is a beautiful hotel in a family mansion built in the 19th Century. It is 50 metres from the sea in a picturesque and authentic village called Erbalunga, in the Cap Corse. It is located in the middle of greenery, at the heart of this lovely village of fishermen, 9 kilometres north of Bastia. You can still see these old boats coming and going, reminding us of their more active past. Nicknamed the village of the painters, it has been the source of inspiration of several famous 20th Century painters.

Bastia is the 68th French town to have obtained the "Art and History" label for its citadel, its museum, the old port, the baroque churches and the market. 13, Rue Napoleon was home to Bonaparte when the republican circle gave him a safe-conduct to Toulon which was possibly the start of his destiny.

The Cap Corse is an island within the island where the preserved sea, mountain and nature unify in harmony to offer an incomparable lifestyle. The Castagniccia (30 kilometres south of Bastia), is a huge chestnut grove hiding villages, one of which is Morosaglia, birthplace of Pascal Paoli (1725-1807), the founding father of the Corsican Nation. Corsica was ruled by the world's first constitution in 1755.
