Cicek is a converted village house set up in the foothills just outside Dalyan. From the property you have a stunning view over the valley to a lake, turtle beach, the sea and a backdrop of mountains - a real wow factor. The house has a south facing veranda covering the the full width of the property with dining table and chairs and plenty of seating room. From the double bedrooms you have a matching south facing balcony. We take our evening drinks here and watch the amazing sunsets. There is an outside covered seating area next to the barbecue, so spoilt for choice where to eat.
Upper Gokbel where Cicek is situated is considered by the locals to be the Jewel in the Crown on this beautiful coastline. You may hear in the distance the tinkle of sheep bells. This still small hamlet offers peace and relaxation yet in easy access to Dalyan. You may find it more convenient to hire either a scooter or car. It is the nearest we will ever get to paradise.
Depending on the season you can pick from the garden white mulberries, yummy on your morning muesli or lemons, oranges and pomegranates and lots of grapes.
The pool is one depth and is not fenced although not accessible from the veranda, so please consider your requirements for children. The garden is terraced.
We often see tortoises labouring up the track. Pop down the hill to the pancake shop or stop off at a local restaurant only 6 mins drive. Dalyan is full of good restaurants, plenty of local shops, boats up the lake or down to the beach. Visit Kaunos Roman Ruins, see the Lycian tombs - the best of everything.
