Place for holiday transfer, ultimately — livid here, say, having lost all cases? (7)
I believe the answer is:
riviera
'place for holiday' is the definition.
(as in the French Riviera)
I don't understand how the rest of the clue works.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for riviera that I've seen before include "holiday destination" , "Warm coastal region" , "I arrive at fashionable European coastline" , "Coastal region between Cannes and La Spezia" , "Coastal area between Italy and France" .)
