  • Description

    Description

    We live with our two little girls (5,8) in the middle of nature surrounded by trees and with a view of the mountains. The beautiful Köycegiz Lake is only 250 m away.
    We are looking for loving people who will help us with everyday tasks, gardening and different building projects.
    On our property there are olive trees, orange trees, mandarin trees, lemon trees and other fruit trees.
    We attach great importance to fresh organic products and try to use everything that our garden offers us.
    Our outdoor kitchen is a wonderful place to relax and process organic vegetables and fruits such as ferment, insert olives, making valuable olive oil, preparing pomegranate syrup, squeeze juices and much more.
    For a healthy and conscious nutrition we prepare our meals freshly every day with regional products. We get our fresh eggs from our own organic chicken farm with free-range chickens.

    We are in an idyllic and quiet place surrounded by nature with trees to be in accordance with nature. Along our lodging there are hiking and cycling tours (ECO-Trails). Köycegiz Lake is just a 10-minute walk away.
    The place where we live offers an ideal starting point for day trips to nearby cities such as Marmaris, Fethiye, Göcek, Akyaka and Bodrum. The distance to the city center is 12 minutes by car, to Dalaman Airport 30 km, to Sarigerme and Iztuzu Beach 30 km.
    Some information about Iztuzu Beach:
    The 4.5 km long Iztuzu Beach, commonly known as Turtle Beach because the Caretta carettas lay their eggs here, is on the UNESCO World Heritage List and is often listed among the 10 most beautiful beaches in the world.
