In addition, there is a large patio with a granite-topped dining table and 8 dining chairs. This patio also has 2 wrought iron sunbeds to provide comfortable seating away from the sun. There is a first floor terrace with beautiful sea and mountain views accessed from the landing and master bedroom. It also has a granite-topped table and 4 chairs and is the perfect spot to enjoy a drink while the sun sets. To the rear of the property is a small patio area, a further area of garden and parking for 2 cars.
Coast/Beach
'Bellavista' is within a few minutes drive of the coast. There is a good choice of coves and beaches nearby, the largest of which are Escape and Mare Monte. Both beaches are safe and family-friendly with beach umbrellas and restaurant facilities. Scuba diving and other water sports are available at several locations, including Escape beach. Boat trips can be taken from Kyrenia. For day trips we would recommend the Karpas peninsula where the coast is undeveloped.
Golf
A high-quality 18-hole course at Esentepe (half an hour's drive from the villa) opened in Spring 2007. Please see their website (www.korineumgolf.com) for further details.
Travel
Flights to the local North Cyprus airport (Ercan) are available from all major UK airports with a transfer time to Alsancak of approx. 45 minutes. A greater choice of scheduled and charter flights is also available to Larnaca in Southern Cyprus with a transfer time of 90 minutes. Although there are cheap local bus and taxi services, we would recommend hiring a car for at least part of your stay. Please contact us for advice on booking flights, airport transfers and car hire.
Distances
The village of Alsancak has a large new supermarket and several good restaurants which are less than 5 minutes drive from 'Bellavista'. Local village shops are within 10 minutes walk. The picturesque port of Kyrenia with its Crusader castle and wide selection of shops and restaurants is 6km drive along the coast road. Local beauty spots such as Bellapais Abbey, St Hilarion castle and Karaman village are all within 20 minutes drive of the villa. The ancient capital city of Nicosia is 35km away.
Further details
There is a huge selection of restaurants in the area, many of which can be found along the coast road to Kyrenia. They offer food to suit all tastes from traditional Cypriot mezze to authentic curries and European cuisine. Credit cards are accepted in larger shops and restaurants but are not yet readily accepted in smaller outlets. Sterling is welcomed for all transactions and we would recommend taking sterling cash as the easiest form of payment. ATMs can be easily found along the coast road and there are branches of HSBC in Kyrenia and Nicosia. Local maps, guide books and a walking guide are provided for guests to use. Our English-speaking property managers are always available to answer any questions you may have during you stay.

Guest comments
Just returned from our very nice holiday. Loved the villa, the facilities were excellent. The pool was particularly good - big enough for a 'proper swim'. (T.Lux and family, May 2006).
To sum up, the villa was as near perfect as I could imagine. I can't think of one single thing that would make the villa any better. I loved the out of the way location with the views and the peace and quiet. The villa was spotless and we had everything we needed. (M. Marshall and family, July 2006).
You have a truly wonderful villa - an absolute delight to be a guest in. Our holiday was very enjoyable and the pool was a joy to use. (R. Atkins, September 2009).
Just returned from another wonderful fortnight in your villa. The villa was lovely as usual. It all went far too quickly and we're already talking about when we go back next year! (L.Owens, November 2010).
