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!

    • Jones sell Monmouth beans. Their stock often sells out so the turnover is good. Otherwise also like old spike as per above and have had lovely coffee from volcano too 
    • I am sure the dry cleaners on the corner has CCTV outside, but might not be the right angle.    
    • I was interested in this paragraph: Are the local councils renting out their parks getting ripped off by the international festival operators and private equity companies who own the festivals?
    • Found Chilli & Garlic to be pretty tasty and very good value, a really welcome addition amongst the sourdough, bakeries and pub fare. Personally, I prefer smaller sized Falafel, for more crunch and lightness. And I found overall, everything lacking a bit of punch. More Chilli and Garlic, and pickles please! Maybe that’s just what I’m accustomed to.  Highly recommend the falafel on Northcross Road market - amazing value, really excellent falafel, and you can really taste the care that goes into the homemade fresh pickles, sauces & salads.  Having travelled extensively in the middle east & I find it a close match to the many falafel stands I have tried.
