Location
About the surrounding area of Villa FindikVilla Findik is nestled in the Muğla region of Turkey, just a short distance from the small township of Kayakoy, set some 300 miles south-west of Ankara. Known for its natural beauty, Kayakoy is an atmospheric village, with a famous ghost town punctuated with local shops and restaurants (also inspiration for Louis De Bernier’s ‘Birds without Wings’, novel.) In a rural setting, Kayakoy is a haven for those who enjoy hiking and trekking, while car hire, buses and transfer services ensure easy accessibility.
Notably for walkers, the Lycian Way trail draws nature and wildlife lovers for its unspoilt natural terrain. The picturesque harbour town of Fethiye is a short drive (circa 8km), where visitors can meander and soak up the local flavour. Best known for its natural harbour and ancient rock tombs, including the 4th-century B.C. Tomb of Amyntas carved into the mountains. Visitors can enjoy the bustle of the markets, or unwind in the Turkish baths.
For a trip to the coast, among our pick would be Oludeniz beach on the renowned turquoise coast for clear azure waters and fine sands, or Cold Water Bay (circa 5.5km) – a gorgeously remote family-friendly beach with glistening swimming waters and a soft, sandy shoreline. The monastery ruins of Afkule (around 4km away) are perched on a dramatic cliff edge.
Exploring the coves by boat, and stopping off for a golden gozleme (local flatbreads) or visiting the islands around the turquoise coast makes for a wonderful day trip. Snorkelling and other water sports are easily accessible, as is bike hire or pony trekking.

Kayakoy
The "Ghost Town" of Kayaköy was once inhabited by a substantial Greek Orthodox Christian; Artisans who left for Greece in the populations exchange 1923. Many of the old stone houses have been brought back to life and the village is again alive. There is a bohemian feel and a mix of restaurants cater for those enjoying the healthy village air. The cute beach at Gemiler is the closest place for sea swimming here. The area was the inspiration for Louis de Bernieres’ novel Birds Without Wings. Whilst here do try the local Gozleme pancakes.
