Au Pied des Oliviers, Calenzana. Holiday Rentals

Description for B&B:

Welcome to our guest house at the foot of the Olive trees, complete with a pool, in Balagne.

If you're looking to explore Balagne while being close to Calvi and red island, Calenzana is the perfect compromise. It's conveniently located just 15 minutes from Calvi and 25 minutes from Ile Rousse. You can wander the streets of Calvi and its citadel, bask on the beaches of the Bay of Calvi (which are only 10 minutes away), or venture a few kilometers to discover the paradisiacal white sandy beaches and turquoise waters of Ghjunchitu, Bodri, Ostriconi, and Lozari near red island.

However, if you prefer a peaceful retreat, you can also relax by the pool and on the private terrace attached to our spacious double rooms. Each room, with a surface area of 30 m2, can accommodate up to 3 people and is equipped with a king-size bed (180/200), a convertible single bed, a large flat-screen TV, and Wi-Fi. Additionally, a 15 m2 terrace with private garden furniture is provided for your enjoyment.

We have designated an area for our guests, which includes a lounge, board games, table football, a dining table, and a kitchenette with a refrigerator and microwave. For outdoor activities, we offer petanque, a swing, and a slide. The pool is equipped with a security system, complete with an audible alarm and a gate for entry.

Start your day with a delicious breakfast served under the pergola, overlooking the villages and mountains, with a view of the pool. Our breakfast includes homemade pastries, local products, fresh fruit, and Corsican deli meats. In case of inclement weather, breakfast is served in the Pool House. Throughout the day, you can access the Pool House to prepare coffee or tea at your convenience.

Calenzana is not only known as the starting point for the GR 20 long-distance trail and the Corsica Mare e Monti trail, but also for its rich heritage and history. Don't miss the opportunity to visit the village and its bell tower, as well as the main square, where 500 German soldiers were buried under the steeple. Explore the Chapel of the Holy Restitude, where a sarcophagus from the 4th century was discovered beneath the altar in 1951. You'll also be in close proximity to many other charming villages, such as Montemaggiore and SantAntonino, both classified as some of the most beautiful villages in France. Additionally, make sure to visit the ghost village of Oporto, which offers breathtaking views of the entire bay of Calvi and the marina of Sant Ambrogio. Access to Oporto is available via a small path from the village of Lumio.

Our prime location will also grant you access to a multitude of activities that our region has to offer, including water sports, diving, horseback riding, hiking, mountain biking, 4x4 adventures, quad biking, and sea excursions.

We look forward to welcoming you to our guest house and providing you with a memorable stay in Balagne.
