Welcome to Roger's Retreats

La Reginella

Calvi, Corsica

If a picture's worth a thousand words, we can relax for a moment: the view above is what you see from the balcony of this town centre apartment, which is on the third [top] floor of a building overlooking the bay and mountains beyond.

Calvi is a chic place, with shops, restaurants and boutiques in walking distance of the apartment.

Most appealingly, you can pick up a train here on a narrow gauge railway that links coastal villages and beaches, with connections to Ajaccio, in the south, and you are just 10 mins walk from the ferry point, from where there are connections to Marseilles, Nice, Toulon and the Italian sea-ports.

Specifically, the apartment sleeps 4 in a double and a twin, with a combined sitting room / diner and a balcony with a table and chairs, and those marvellous views.

TV / DVD Bathroom with bath and shower. Very well equipped kitchen: oven, microwave, fridge, freezer, washing machine, dish washer. Cost: from about £195.
