We're trying to book a honeymoon for late June and can't decide between Corsica, Sardinia (or even mainland Italy).


We will hire a car when we're there and don't mind doing a 'twin centre' type thing as we'll have 2 weeks. Any thoughts? Ideally we'd have a mix of

- visiting sleepy mountain villages

- some mountainy activities, e.g kayaking, hiking

- a few days to see gorgeous white beaches


Not fussed about St Tropez style glamour. We thought Corsica, but some have said it's SO expensive to eat.


Thanks in advance

I've visited Sardinia but not Corsica. My general impression is that the latter is slightly more upmarket cf. the former. Sardinia is blessed with some magnificent, remote geography - beaches, cliffs, and an empty interior punctuated by a few small towns. You'll probably need a car. The small La Maddalena islands just off the north coast, with what seemed to be tropical beaches and Garibaldi's house (now a museum), were a highlight.


Whichever island you choose, have fun.

Been to both a number of times. Corsica gets the vote for its splendid scenery and being slightly more civilised than Sardinia.(Berlusconi has a place on the costa smeralda in Sardinia) Chocoholic, if you went round the island in an hour it must have been Canvey Island you went to!

    • One of the best of Shakespeare 's plays.  I did Othello for A level. Also seen a number of stage and film versions. Is there any specific aspects of the play that is difficult for your daughter to understand?  
    • @Sue think this is your quote.  It wasn't binary, good Vs bad, and Corbyn had a lot of popular support, as evidenced by the previous election. He had aot of good policies, some picked up by others since. He was defeated by a mixture of a right wing press,good targeting the Johnson 'Get Brexit Done" and for some that Johnson was a funny loveable rogue/fool/liar/philander/opportunist.  I wouldn't see choosing the perceived least worst candidate out of the two major parties as being "good sense'.  We imagine that Corbyn would have been terrible, but we don't know.  He would have taken a stronger line against Israel in Gaza, not sucked up to Trump nut on Russia?  Would the UK be better for that?
    • We have had 4 greyhounds - the last one, a bitch, was not speyed so we  had to pay for that at our local vet.  Only one dog was nervous around children and only one was cat friendly.
    • Apologies on the tardy reply, but thank you everyone for your responses and suggestions! Unfortunately I couldn't attend the recent EDF drinks because of work (I know right). But will absolutely keep eyes peeled for the next one and try and come down!
