Home description
A quaint and traditional Turkish house with stunning views looking out across the surrounding countryside towards the ocean - on a clear day you can even see the Greek Island of Cos! The house is of classical Turkish design with blue and white tiles in the bathroom and white decor inside and out. This is a traditional design to keep the house cool in the burning sun.
Perfect for a relaxing family holiday with plenty to do for all ages. Residing on a quiet country lane you can really experience the laid back and peaceful lifestyle rustling up meals to enjoy around the dining table, a BBQ in the backyard, chillout together and watch a DVD in the spacious lounge or watch the sunset from the comfort of the balcony. The house has a swingset perfect for the younger ages or why not challenge the family to a holiday table tennis tournemant.
Only a fifteen minute walk from the nearest village and just 3km from a beautiful beach the house is in a perfect location whether you want to stay indoors, sunbathe at the beach or explore the Turkish way of living.

The Turquoise Coast/Lycia region
The craggy Bodrum Peninsula is an area of wonderful diversity, where the simplicity of the villages of the rural hinterland jostles with the sophistication and energy of Bodrum itself. Given Bodrum’s unabated popularity, it comes as a surprise to find many parts of the peninsula almost untouched by tourism.
In the area you will find villages where donkeys are used to carry firewood for the traditional bee-hived shaped ovens in which unleavened bread (‘pide’) is cooked, and where elderly men seem to spend most of the day playing backgammon. Amongst the dozens of beaches along the coastline, quiet and unspoilt backwaters with hidden bays and coves and aquamarine waters can still be found.
Bodrum / Gumusluk Village area
Take your shoes off to paddle across the causeway onto Rabbit Island at Gumusluk. Look into the clear waters around the small harbour - in several places you can see remnants of the ancient city of Myndos, which slipped into the sea in ancient times.
Head for Gumusluk in late afternoon - a cooling drink at the one of bar followed perhaps by a meal at one of the many waterside restaurants. Try the cool jazz sounds of Gumuscafe at the water’s edge.... Pop over to Yalikavak - stroll through the shops, have a coffee or beer at the newly restored windmill, watch the sun go down (again!) and perhaps finish off at the weekly open-air cinema at the marina.
Ensure you visit some of the numerous beaches on the peninsula - Akyarlar perhaps or Camel Beach, or drive a little further and visit the carpet village in the hills on route to Yaliciftlik, where you can eat and swim later. Walk in the local countryside.
Make sure you go up to Karakaya at some stage and gaze at the islands dotted like jewels in the Aegean. Another great walk is from Yalikavak up to the deserted village of Sandima high in the hills. Or you could simply walk from the villas through country lanes to the beach at Kadikalesi, about half an hour away.
