The Kyrenia District
The climate in Northern Cyprus makes this an ideal summer or winter destination. It is located 5 minutes from safe, clean, sandy beaches with full facilities and only 15 minutes to the fantastic old harbour town of Kyrenia.
Alsancak area
The nearest village is Alsancak which is walking distance. By car, the border into Southern Cyprus is 30 minutes; Famagusta is 1.5 hours; St. Hilarion Castle at the top of a mountain peak is approx 15 mins and the Karpas peninsular with its miles of white sandy beaches is 2 hours away. Cenap, one of the most popular mezze restaurants in the north, is located in Alsancak. In the village there is also a supermarket with most things you would need - including nappies and formula! They also have fresh milk and bread after 11a.m. Other local supermarkets have a lot of UK-brand goods. The best ones are Tempo (5 minutes from the villa); Lemar (10 minutes from the villa). A comprehensive list of recommended restaurants and places to visit is available in the villa.
How to get there
Flights to Northern Cyprus are available from various UK airports including Heathrow, Gatwick, Stanstead, Manchester, Belfast & Glasgow and go via Turkey. The journey from Ercan airport is 45 minutes. Information and advice on bookings available from owners. Alternatively, you can fly direct into Larnaca in the South and we can arrange a taxi transfer direct to the villa which takes 1.5hrs. Car hire is strongly recommended and a vehicle can be delivered to the villa or picked up at the airport. Rates are competitive and child car seats are available.
