A l'Ombre du Clocher

We recently returned from two weeks in Corsica. We stayed in three villages in the Northern half of the island. L'Ombre du Clocher was the first place we stayed and it was a perfect introduction to the island and the warmth of its people. Our room was clean, spacious and well-appointed. Most reviewers mention the amazing home made jams and the biscuits from the bakery in town. All were delicious. Calenzana is in an ideal location; close to Calvi and other attractions in La Balagne. All those are superlatives, but the lasting memory is Berengere, the owner. She is so warm and engaging, and patient with our attempts at speaking French. Her English is very good, and she was one of the few English speakers we encountered on the island. We enjoyed talking with her about many topics during our breakfasts. We highly recommend L'Ombre du Clocher and look forward to a return.
