The most unique property in the Corsican Places collection is la Tour de Calanca - dating back to the 15th century and originally a watchtower, it was designed to protect the Corsican coast from pirate invasion. This one-bedroom house comes complete with rooftop terrace and views over the Valinco Bay and is just a stroll away from a secluded beach.
