FETHIYE Fethiye is a large and busy town, however it boosts a lovely harbour with lovely restaurants and cafe's where you sit and watch the world go by!

Fethiye has a large bus station where the resorts of Calis, Hisaronu and Ölüdeniz are easily accessible.
OLU DENIZ Olu Deniz is one of the most photographed resorts in Turkey and over the years has probably featured on more holiday brochure covers than anywhere else in the world. Wisely, when Turkish tourism was in its infancy the local authorities realised how precious this place was and made it a conservation area, forever protecting the stunning shoreline and village from over development. A 40min drive will take you to this area and the beach.
KAS Atmospheric sights, warm hospitality, breathtaking scenery, sandy beaches and starlit nights at waterfront restaurants, all in true Turkish style.
This upmarket, pretty town nestled into a magnificent bay won't disappoint. Once a small fishing village, it's now a classy summer resort comprising cobbled shop-filled lanes, a quaint harbour, exotic markets and endless enticing eateries serving delectable Turkish fare. Put on your walking shoes and you'll also discover ancient cliff tombs, a crumbled amphitheatre and the serious hiking offered by the famous Lycian Way Walk. Other highlights of holidays to Kas include boat trips to Myra and brilliant diving – don your wetsuit to witness the sunken city of Kekova and amazing underwater life. And when it comes to sun lounging, choose from Kas' wooden sea platforms or grab a dolmus to some stunning local beaches.
Come sundown, Kas holidays keep their sophisticated aura. Most visitors while their evenings at the lively waterfront restaurants and tavernas, sipping on raki or wine under a canopy of stars. You can now swim with the Dolphins at Kas (further details to follow)
PATARA In the heart of Lycia Patara is best known for its beach, eighteen kilometers of soft white sand, backed by majestic dunes and in recent years the winner of a "best beach in the world" survey in the Sunday Times.
Patara beach should not be missed with its gorgeous landscape and great swimming. It is a national park and home to many birds, also the breeding ground of the endangered Loggerhead turtle.
The beach is an 18 kilometer-long strip of sand bordered on its ends by mountains and along its length by sand dunes and the large marshy area which once was the celebrated port of Patara.
The Patara area is a national park, a key biodiversity area and is rich in birdlife. List of birds spotted in Patara, also the ancient site of Patara with its with its gorgeous landscape and ancient ruins makes it a great place to visit. Only a 30-40 minutes drive from the cottage.

Comments
This was our second stay at Garden Cottage, 2 weeks last year and 3 weeks this year in August. Both times we have had a thoroughly enjoyable and relaxing holiday and found the villa well equipped to meet our needs. A car is essential due to the rural situation of the villa . I would recommend this villa to those who wish to experience rural Turkey but who also like to be within fairly easy reach of more touristy places for excursions and entertainment
