On the riverbank, 5 minutes from Corte as you go up the valley, lies the Restonica Inn, a family business for four generations. Managed by two sisters, Rachel and Emilie Arnol, the establishment built in the 1960s was the vacation home of their great-grandmother who, alone in winter, turned it into guest rooms.
The Inn is open from April to October, 7 days a week, with lunch and dinner service at the restaurant (closed on Mondays), and a welcome platter. In winter, the establishment opens upon reservation for events: christening, wedding, seminar, group.
Gourmet Restaurant

The Restonica restaurant offers gourmet dishes with revisited traditional flavors, such as the Restonica filet, a beef filet with sheep cheese deglazed with brandy, or another specialty, Corsican milk-fed lamb confit.
Rachel and Emilie choose local products from a farm in Corte for the lambs, for AOP charcuterie, and the region's cheese. Local products married with seasonal vegetables passing through the chef's hands for a flavorful cuisine.

The Restonica Inn is nestled in nature, its terrace overlooking the pool, and the river below, in the heart of the valley between mountains and forest. An idyllic setting that you can also enjoy from inside through a large bay window.
The restaurant and inn's pool is available to guests with sunbed rental. It has a shower and a footbath. As it is not supervised, children are under the responsibility of the parents.
La Restonica
The riverbed was remodeled by the storm in November 2023.
Double, Triple, and Family Duplex Rooms
The inn has 7 rooms divided into 3 triple rooms, 3 double rooms, and a family duplex room that can accommodate 4 to 6 people, for a total capacity of 21 places. After a renovation, all rooms were equipped with air conditioning in 2018 and have wifi internet connection, bathroom, shower, and hairdryer.
Services
As the location offers limited GSM network, Rachel and Emilie invite you to contact them on the establishment's landline.
Family Duplex
The duplex offers a comfortable space, making you feel at home, and you will appreciate the thoughtfulness of its decoration.
A small hallway with a large sliding wardrobe leads to the bathroom and the living room on your right. You can reach the two bedrooms by the staircase in an attic space separated by a curtain, with two double beds.

Remarkable Site
This classified site attracts many visitors throughout the summer who appreciate the coolness of the valley and its river bordered by laricio pines. Hiking trails leading to the Melu and Capitellu lakes are to be discovered upstream of the valley. These sites are protected to preserve the ecosystem that hosts endemic species, sometimes unique, especially in the Restonica gorges.
