Cecik Evi (villa)

Home description

Cicek Evi (the house of flowers). Cicek is a newly converted village house set in the foothills just outside Dalyan. From the property you have a stunning view across the valley to the lake, beach, sea and a back drop of mountains - the real WOW factor in an oasis of peace and relaxation., Wonderfully quiet, the odd sound from across the valley, the tinkle of sheep bells or perhaps a tractor in the distance that is Gokbel. It is the nearest we will ever get to paradise.

Depending on the season you can pick from the terraced garden white mulberries, yummy on your morning muesli or lemons, oranges, grapes and pomegranites. The pool is one depth and is not fenced although not accessible from the veranda, so please consider your requirements for children. Pop down the hill to the pancake shop or stop off at a local restaurant only 6 mins drive. Dalyan is full of good restaurants, plenty of local shops, boats up the lake or down to the beach. Visit Caunos Roman ruins, see the Lycian tombs - the best of everything. For convenience you will most likely want to rent a car or scooter.

The Turquoise Coast/Lycia region

The Dalyan region is a conservation area and as such is highly protected against over development.

Gokbel is about 12 minutes from Dalyan and eight minutes to the beach. The nearest shop for essentials is a five minute drive. A very small rural village, do not expect tarmac roads. The local Turks are warm and welcoming, the Turkish people are known for their hospitality and their excellent cooking. Wonderfully peaceful and quiet, the odd sound from across the valley the tinkle of sheep bells or perhaps a tractor in the distance, that is Gokbel. We have seen tortoises lumbering up the track past the house and fireflies dancing in the mulberry tree at night.

July and August are the hottest two months, the evenings in May and October can be quite cool but can also be warm so we suggest taking sleeves in case. The winters are supposed to be quite wet.

Dalyan / Itzuzu Beach area

Iztuzu beach is one of the last nesting sites in the mediterranean for the Loggerhead Turtle. Two miles of sand in which there are areas restricted for the turtles but ample space to find a spot away on your own. There are facilities at either end of the beach where sun beds can be hired and drink bought.

Dalyan a small town on the banks of the reed river in this beautiful conservation area made famous by the turtles nesting on Itzuzu beach. There are numerous good restaurants and bars to cater for all tastes. Sit down at the side of the river overlooking the Lycian tombs and have an efes (a beer) or a che (Turkish tea) in the tea gardens.

Take a water taxi up the lake to the market at Koycegiz on a Monday and stop off at the mud baths and sulphur springs. We quite often hire a boat for the day and either go out to sea to a cove, swim and the boatman then serves us up a barbecue of have a day on the fresh water lake. They also offer night time barbecues on the lake. There are a great number of water birds to watch and in the autumn the flashing blue of kingfishers in the reeds. We often see river turtles but have only once seen the big loogerhead turtle which was very exciting.

Visit the roman ruins of Kaunos, take the bus to Fethiye or a Gulet trip around twelve islands from Gocek - perhaps a jeep safari and have lunch up the mountains at the trout farm. The golf course is due to be opened in 2008 and will be about 10 minutes from Cicek. Walking riding, snorkelling and fishing or just sit by the pool with the WOW view from Cicek and enjoy a drink and your book.

How to get there

"We had a fabulous time in Turkey, and what really made it was Cicek Evi! It is such a beautiful place that you have there and you have put so much into it. Waking up every morning to sunshine and that magnificent view...a swim, breakfast with turkish coffee, what more can I say?" - Kevin and Ann from Dublin

"This villa is just gorgeous - what amazing views and the pool and the sunsets. all perfect!" "We also loved the really comfortable beds" "The kitchen is really well equipped" - Alison F

Well what can I say, your villa is amazing. We all had a fantastic time and were amazed at the beauty of the place. We have travelled all over the world and found it to be one of the most amazing situations. Even the three 18 year old boys were enthusiastic about the place which takes a lot. Joanne Carter and family and friends.
