Photos and Description of the Speloncato vacation house rental Character granite built house with stunning views to the sea

Maison les Calanches is a traditional granite built house set within the picturesque village of Speloncato. Spectacularly situated overlooking the Regino valley, Maison les Calanches affords outstanding views across the valley to the sea. The house has been recently refurbished to a high standard. The well equipped kitchen provides a fridge, washing machine, dishwasher and microwave, plenty of cupboard space and a wine rack. The spacious lounge/dining room is comfortably furnished with sofa, easy chairs and a traditional chestnut dining table.

The deep granite walls afford a cool repose from the hot afternoon sun, the wood burning stove provides comfort during the cooler evenings of early spring and autumn.

As with all villages in the Balagne the village square in Speloncato is the hub of village life. The welcoming shop is well stocked with fruit, veg, local cheeses, olive oil, hams and basic commodities. Bread can be ordered from here on a daily basis and meat and fish vans visit the square regularly. There are two bars/restaurants and a souvenir shop. 15kms down the mountain roads to the coast are the beaches of Lozari and Ostraconi, great for swimming and wind surfing. Visit the bustling towns of I'lle Rousse and Calvi where you can enjoy the beaches, the many bars and restaurants, and stroll through the streets for some excellent shopping. Leisure activities include sailing, diving, wind surfing, water skiing. There are boat trips to the coastal nature reserve of Scandola and visitors are welcomed to join in the local festivals and celebrations. Walks, either challenging, relaxing or both can be accessed from the village and beyond and the views are spectacular.

Authentic Corsican Experience

Tricia53 Merseyside
Review Submitted: September 11, 2009 Date of Stay: August 2009
Breathtaking views and a beautiful house. Well equipped spacious and clean. Stunning views from the balcony and garden. We liked the peace and quiet and village atmosphere. Small cafe/bar which did pannini's and ice creams. There was only one restaurant but the meals were lovely. A small shop had only basics but a supermarket at Ille Rousse was about 40 minutes away and had everything.
Ideal place to relax and chill. Only one small downside - there was no light on the approach to the front door, so take a torch for the short walk back to the house after a drink or two in the village square!!

Great Place to Relax

badshead North Somerset
Review Submitted: August 13, 2009 Date of Stay: August 2009
We stayed at this property in August 2009 and recommend it highly to anybody who enjoys peace, tranquility and wants an authentic Corsican experience. The location provides stunning panoramic views from the balcony - amazing sunsets and great bird (and goat) watching in the valley below. It's convenient for the coast/beaches, but far enough away from the tourist crowds in high season. However, scenery, scenery and more scenery is what should attract you to this location. The many picturesque hill top villages and spectacular, rugged mountain scenery is what makes this place special. If you enjoy sightseeing, walking/cycling or leisurely driving on spectacular mountain roads then this is the place for you. The long, lazy lunches on local restaurant terraces with amazing views isn't bad either!

Das wirklich hübscheste Haus, in dem wir (bisher) waren! Von Größe, Ausstattung und Ambiente genau richtig - wir haben uns super wohl gefühlt und kommen bestimmt mal wieder.
