My wife and I are travelling to Corsica towards the end of May in a Frankia 740 Plus (7.4mts).

We would welcome advice on which is the best ferry port to travel from in France or italy. We seem to think France would be the closest.

I gather Corsica is quite hilly and would like anyone's advice as to whether this vehicle is suitable to partake in such a journey. Is it best to find a few central campsites and hire a car?

Many thanks.

Tony

I have moved this post to here from the Introductions section as, hopefully, someone here will be able to help.

We went a few years ago with a caravan and the main roads are fine, even the ones into the mountains although a bit twisty should not be any issues.  There are loads of MH in Corsica so not to worry.

We went out overnight from Nice to L'ille Rousse and back overnight again Bastia to Toulon.  Great service and good cabins, I do not think it makes much difference where you sail from its just what sailings will suit you.

We loved Corsica, great beaches and countryside, there are lots of sites and Aires there so enjoy it.

Love Corsica, Nice is our usual ferry route. Beware the early morning sailings, the couchettes smell of damp Corsicans.The roads are pretty good but take the normal precautions when planning a trip.
