Nestled atop stunning rolling hills, overlooking the valley and the sleepy village of Bayir below, this home provides breathtaking views from every angle. Perfectly situated for relaxing, romantic getaways, guests can enjoy candlelit alfresco dining, nighttime jacuzzi stargazing, hot, balmy days cooling off in the pool, and catching that perfect tan resting on plush sun loungers. Of course, if you can tear yourself away from the tranquillity of this spectacular villa, there are ample opportunities for exploration, so grab your boots and head on out for a day full of adrenaline-filled trekking into the wilds of the Turkish countryside, or head down to the beautiful town of Bayir to soak in the wonderful Turkish culture, sample sumptuous delicacies, or a hearty Turkish before taking a walk along the prom, browsing in the fabulous little shops and shopping for souvenirs.With a home this beautiful and views this awe-inspiringly spectacular, we cannot recommend this home enough!

Host


This home is managed by Oliver

This home is managed directly by a business. A member of their staff will be your point of contact before and during your stay. Nearly twenty years ago, Oliver and his friend began curating the world's most unique and rustic getaways. Driven by their own unforgettable experience at a chateau, they have grown remarkably since then. Much like Plum, they believe in hand-picked luxury that doesn't break the bank.

This home is nominated for the Plum Guide Award.
