Coast/Beach Superb deserted sandy beaches are twenty minute drive away.
Golf Korineum Golf and Country Club. It’s been a long time coming, but the new Esentepe golf course in Northern Cyprus is well worth the wait. This is located approximately 15 minutes drive from the villa. The Esentepe golf course is not just the first 18 hole golf course in North Cyprus, but a truly international course designed to the highest standards. The course covers some 6600 yards with elegant greens, tricky sand bunkers and water hazards, set amongst olive trees.
Skiing Limited Skiing is available close to the summit of the Trodos Mountains around 90 min drive from Manzara.
Travel Eating out is one of the great pleasures in Northern Cyprus and visitors will be spoilt for choice with the huge number of restaurants available, at least seven in the small village of Bellapais alone and hundreds more throughout the Kyrenia area. Turkish cuisine is always plentiful and inexpensive and an absolute ’must’ to try, but there are plenty of English, Italian, Indian and Chinese restaurants too. Recommendations from both the owners and visitors will be found in the information pack.
Distances Bellapais, a ten minute walk away, is situated on the hillside in the foothills of Five Finger Mountains with spectacular views of the Mediterranean. Bellapais, immortalised by Laurence Durrell’s ’Bitter Lemons’, offers several restaurants, gift shops and a general ’corner shop’. The local (good) car hire office and taxi service is also located in Bellapais. The area affords excellent opportunities for walkers. It is a ten minute drive to the harbour town of Kyrenia. |
