  Accommodation

  Firstly i need to tell that we can't accomodate couples. The house is 85 squaremeters and has its private garden which is big enough for farming etc. Our lovely and peaceful dog Lydia also lives in the garden. Our flat has 2 floors. Guest room is next to bathroom and kitchen . We have 2 cats in the house,sometimes 3 :) They generally stay in the living room especially in the winters.They mostly live outside in the garden at summers except eating times. The kitchen has a multi gas burner, an electrical oven, sandwich toaster, a freezer, a french press, a kettle and the other essential appliances such as pans, saucepans,cups, glasses etc. that can be used by the guests. The guest room has a normal sized bed , a wardrobe(can be seperated a place for you) , and an electrical stove, Our guests can feel free with using any facility of the house.

  What else ...

  We mostly live in the house interact with the guests as friends with hospitality. Our neighborhood is so secured and honest.
  Our place is also very close to the favorite summer vacation spots such as Seferihisar, Sığacık, Urla, Cesme and Kusadasi.
