Description
Our farm is at a short distance from the villages of Ortahisar and Urgup. Located in the heart of the national park, away from roads, it is the perfect starting point for nature trails and the exploration of Cappadocia's most famous valleys.
We share our home with few horses, dogs and cats.
Our horses live together in a herd, which contributes to their well-being.
Don't look for boxes or a manège: when they are not on trail, our horses are grazing in the fields around the farm.
Our main activity is to organize weekly tours for European guest from a second farm in Avanos.
We are a french couple leaving our 10 years old boy, we try to do lots of thinks by ourself, we have a vegetable garden goats for milk.
