Exquisite village house with all the amenities you need

Three en suite double bedrooms, two sitting rooms, large eat-in fully-equipped kitchen, cloakroom, dining terrace, private pool, first-floor balcony, and super roof terrace with spectacular views of the 13th century Abbey, the sea beyond, and the mountains behind — away from the bustle, but yet just a two-minute stroll to the village square, cafes, and restaurants.

Northern Cyprus is the most beautiful part of the island — much of it still undeveloped — with its coastal region lying below a range of mountains and with the historic Crusader port of Kyrenia as its centrepiece, and with three great mountain-top castles as the jewels in its crown. The sea is crystal clear, the beaches uncrowded — and in parts virtually empty even in high summer — and driving still a pleasure. The food is excellent, the wine surprisingly good and inexpensive, and the local people could not be nicer. For golfers there is now a first-class 18-hole course half-an-hour from the house.

Bellapais — made famous by Lawrence Durell’s Bitter Lemons — is arguably the most beautiful and historic village in all Cyprus, and has as its heart the 13th century abbey of the same name, floodlit at night, and surrounded by beautiful gardens. There are walks in the wooded mountains above the village, and the sea and the historic Crusader port of Kyrenia lie below, just ten minutes by car. There are eight restaurants in the village, and in early summer and autumn there are international classical music festivals in the Abbey itself.
