Villa U'Luminellu. Heart of Balagne

<br>Our villa "U luminellu..." la petite lumière, is located in Balagne, in the north-east of Corsica. 20' from Calvi airport. Between the Paoline city of the Île Rousse and the renowned village of Monticello bordered by idyllic beaches such as Caruchettu, Bodri, Davia or Lozari. <br>We invite you to type "balagne-corsica.com" in your favourite search engine to get more information about this beautiful Balagne region.<br><br>For a "bright" stay, we offer you our villa for 6 people, in contemporary style, set on 2000 square metres of landscaped garden with Mediterranean essences.<br><br>Our house, which will be yours for the duration of your holidays, is spacious and very bright. <br><br>It has a comfortable interior, a fully equipped kitchen and scullery: (espresso machine, filter coffee maker, oven and microwave, dishwasher, washing machine, American fridge, kettle etc.) <br><br>A large, colourful and atypical living room opening onto a large fully covered terrace (outdoor kitchen, barbecue, etc.) to share moments of joy with friends.<br><br>The whole will be embellished (on request... or not) with a beautiful unobstructed view of the Agriates desert and the tip of Cap Corse.<br><br>To rest, you will have 3 beautiful bedrooms with comfortable beds 160 wide, 2 bathrooms. One with bath and one (the master bedroom), with shower.<br>Sheets and towels not included in the price. Allow 25€ per bed (Kit 2 towels + sheets)<br><br>2 toilets.<br><br>Upstairs an office <br><br>After a beautiful and "hard" day at the beach, you can relax in our swimming pool (8 by 4), if you feel like it.<br><br>If the lazy days in the Corsican sun do not suit you, you can discover the riches of the Balagne and these hilltop villages during your walks. Pigna, Sant'antonino, Santa Reparata di Balagna, Corbara, Lumio, but also Calvi and its citadel, St Florent le St too (better...) of Balagne, and many others...<br><br>For the more sporty, La Balagne is not to be outdone, you can indulge in your usual practices. Running, mountain biking, horseback riding, but also climbing, paragliding, scuba diving, sailing and boat rental... there is something for everyone.<br><br>For geeks, or simply experienced internet users, free fibre WIFI access is offered and if you are really an outstanding homebody, a large screen TV will allow you to watch your favourite television news...<br><br>Access to our villa is simple and you can easily and widely park in the property. Please note that our villa is not yet equipped with a charging station for electric vehicles.<br><br>Our conditions:<br>Mandatory cleaning fee (excluding indoor/outdoor kitchen area and BBQ) 145€ included in your reservation. <br>Signing of a rental contract and proof of civil liability for travel and holiday accommodation from the rental company.<br>Weekly rental only.<br>Arrival times: Saturday/Saturday: 17:00<br>Departure times: Saturday / Saturday: 10:00 am<br><br>To ensure that you have an excellent holiday and so do we, we would like to inform you of a few small particularities: this house is located in an environment inhabited all year round. As you will easily understand, noisy festive evenings will not be tolerated. Our animal friends will stay with their owners (the holidays are theirs too...) and smokers will be asked not to smoke inside and to be particularly vigilant outside. The maquis burns far too often!

Das Haus ist ein Traum. Der Blick auf die Berge und das Meer ist wunderschön. Die Küche ist mit allem ausgestattet was man braucht und auf der Terrasse gibt es sogar einen Gasgrill. Die Kinder haben es geliebt Tischtennis zu spielen und im Pool zu schwimmen. Die Eltern konnten sich dann auf der Terrasse oder im Garten auf den Liegen entspannen.Caroline und Denis sind perfekte Gastgeber, die uns warmherzig empfangen haben und gerne Tipps geben. Wir (2 Erwachsrne mit 3 Kindern) hatten eine tolle Zeit auf Korsika.

Ganz tolles Haus

Wir haben eine wundervolle Woche in diesem geschmackvoll eingerichteten, großzügigen Haus verlebt. Das Anwesen liegt im für uns schönsten Teil der Insel auf einem großen, vollständig umzäunten/ummauerten Grundstück. Der Pool ist so schön, dass wir auf den Photos erst dachten, es ist ein Gemeinschaftspool irgendeiner Residenz, den man mit anderen teilt. Ist aber nicht so. Man hat den tollen Garten und den Pool, den Dennis in einem super Zustand hält, wirklich für sich ganz allein. Caroline und er sind ein charmantes und sehr sympathisches Paar, denen wirklich etwas daran liegt, dass die Gäste sich in Ihrem Haus wohlfühlen. Die Grillabende auf der schönen Terrasse mit dem herrlichen Ausblick werden uns noch lange in Erinnerung bleiben. Vielen Dank!

Geweldig huis! Mooi uitzicht, zeer schoon, prachtige locatie en zeer vriendelijk contact

Zeer mooi, schoon en compleet vakantiehuis. Vriendelijk en heel fijn contact met Caroline en Denis. Alles is aanwezig en je voelt je direct thuis. De locatie is top, vlakbij l’Ile Rousse en supermarkt en bakker binnen 5 minuten met de auto te bereiken. Calvi met de trein is erg leuk en er is veel mooie natuur dichtbij. Een echte aanrader dus!

Fantastische familiewoning compleet met zwembad

Zeer ruime, goed verzorgde woning met prachtig uitzicht vanaf een mooi ruim terras. Heerlijk zwembad erbij. Keuken van alle apparaten voorzien incl. een grote vries/koelkast. Supervriendelijke eigenaren die vol trots laten zien hoe alles werkt. Ook tijdens het verblijf kregen we veel tips voor restaurantjes etc. Zeer geslaagd. Drie slaapkamers dus voor ons gezin van 4 was dit de perfecte plek. Wifi werkt prima.
