Bellapais Abbey is a 10 minute drive and is situated in the old village of Bellapais, with its sophisticated restaurants and cafes.
Kyrenia harbour is a 30 minute stroll from the villa and is dominated by a castle that has stood for centuries. It houses a very interesting ‘Shipwreck museum’. Kyrenia harbour is alive with bars and restaurants and is a lovely place to sit and watch the world go by. It is just a short walk from the heart of Kyrenia’s shopping district and some of the most sophisticated hotels in Cyprus.
The nearest public beach is called Alagadi Beach and is a conservation beach for Green and Loggerhead turtles. It is never crowded and is free. There are some very good private beaches nearby which offer water sports and restaurants and are worth a visit. Within a 10 minute drive you will find St Hilarion Castle and a little further afield are the towns of Nicosia and Famagusta.
The area is renowned for its flora and fauna and is especially beautiful in springtime.
