Country: Turkey

Description

We live in a small village and we have six rooms to rent to our guests.We are giving our rooms as bed and breakfast. If the guest would like to have dinner we are serving it also. Also we are renting one of our house as self catering if requested. Our place is 700 meters above sea level. Yesiluzumlu lies in a cool valley under the ancient Lycian site -Cadianda- and is surrounded by thick pine forests fed by mountain streams tumbling down the rugged hillsides.
This is an ideal location for someone who wants the enchantment of rural life but also the opportunity to visit the pretty harbour town of Fethiye and Calis Beach, just 20 minutes drive away; with Oludeniz and Dalaman airport also within easy reach. Access to the main resorts is easy, by car, dolmus or taxi. Journey time to/from Fethiye is approx. 20 minutes by car in addition to a regular bus service.
Our place is almost 4km away from the village, we can provide a bike to reach the village. Otherwise it needs about 20 minutes walk.

I spent 12 amazing days at the Cottages. My tasks included helping in the kitchen, taking care of animals (2 dogs, 4 cats & several chickens), watering the gardens, and serving meals.
Ayse and Cengiz were wonderfully friendly and generous host. They even contacted some friends in the tourism business to organize scuba diving and paragliding excursions for me during my time off. And Efkan their employee is now my new 'brother'.
Great people, great location, great food, fantastic experience!
