Villa Leni (villa)

Home description

We are only a 5 minute drive to the town of Kyrenia which has great shops and what is considered to be the most beautiful Byzantine Harbour in Europe. It is surrounded by lovely little restaurants and is magical by night with all the tables having candles lit, very romantic indeed. The best beaches this side of the island are Lara, which is a 10 minute drive and has sunbeds and umbrella's for hire, or our personal favourite Turtle Beach is only a 15 minute drive. It has miles of sand and very few people. In July/ August the turtles come up to lay their eggs and there is a conservation programme here. Vistors may come and view the hatchings, wonderful sight.
The villa is only a 2 minute walk to the nearest restaurant called Rafter's and is one of the best on the island or a little further to lots of other great restaurants, spoilt for choice really. The nearest supermarket is also a short walk away. For keen golfer's there is the Korenium Golf Club, about a 15 minute drive, it is very exclusive but does accept visitors. There is also a small waterpark nearby.
Villa Leni is in a very quiet position in a small street with similar houses.

The Kyrenia District

Kyrenia, or Girne as the locals call it is in the north of Cyprus. It has wonderful scenery, unspoilt beaches, very friendly people and an extremely low crime rate. There are plenty of places to visit and lots to do. The Byzantine harbour in Kyrenia with it's carob houses converted to bars and restaurants is a must see,as is Kyrenia Castle which houses one of the oldest shipwrecks. There are lots of boat day trips from the harbour. St Hilarion Castle is a great day out, the view from the top is stunning and well worth the climb. Not far from us is Bellapais Abbey which can be seen from the road leading to the villa is thought to have been built in the 10th century. For a few YTL you can walk around the ruins. In summer here there are classical concerts played here, accoustics are wonderful. The views from here are also superb and there are some lovely restaurants there.
Famagusta is worth a day out. From the Palm Beach Hotel there you can see into the ruins of Varosha, the no man's land since the mid 60's, it's very eerie. Famagusta itself is lovely and it's great to walk around the walled city. Salamis,on the way to Famagusta is worth seeing. It is the remains of a Roman town still complete with ampitheatre and baths.Close to here is the church and tomb of St Barnabas. These are only a few of the historical sites the area has to offer.
Cyprus boasts 330 days of sunshine. It has a short winter but even then you can sunbathe in sheltered areas. The Spring and Autumn are very pleasant and the Summer's HOT, but there are always nice breezes.

Ozankoy area

Ozankoy is a small village about 5 minutes drive east of Kyrenia. It is still very "Cypriot" and has lots of charm. In the centre of the village is the mosque and the call to prayer can be heard very clearly at the villa, though most Cypriot's are not terribly religous! There are numerous restaurants and cafe's within walking distance, every type of food you could want, from the cheap and cheerful kebab, fish n'chips, curries, Chinese, pizza, chicken bars to very upmarket restaurants.
Golfer's can visit the very posh Korenium Golf Club about 10/15 minutes away. There is a very good riding club in the next village of Catalkoy which caters for novices and experienced riders. Octupus Aquapark is just 5 minutes up the road, or for around £5 each you can use the beach, pool and waterslides at the Acapulco Hotel a 10 minute drive away. There are some beautiful walks in the area and is Spring there are organised wild orchid trails.

Guestbook

The house is lovely, we had a great time and would recommend it to anyone The Wylie family.
The villa is amazing, it far exceeded our expectations, it had all we needed and more. the photographs don't do it justice. We look forward to returning. The Bashir family.
The villa was marvellous, our second stay here, this time for our wedding at Jasmine Court and our honeymoon. We had a wonderful time and even had our henna party at the villa. Thank's for everything. Paresh & Sureya.
We enjoyed Villa Leni so much when we stayed in Sept 07 that we have booked it for 4 weeks this year. The house is very comfortable especially the cushioned armchairs on the front patio, lovely for lunch and evening drinks. It is much better equipped than any other villas we have stayed in over the past 11 years we have been coming to TRNC. Highly recommended. Ian & Sylvie.
