About this property

Quaint Stone built Cottage with sea views, refurbished ready fo 2022,

Old Town Cottage is a little old Greek house, has been fully and tastefully refurbished to the highest standard with an eclectic mix of British and Turkish fixtures and fittings with comfort and romance in mind. It sports an enviable view of the nearby bay and harbour and is central to all things Kalkan but in a quiet cobbled street with mostly local neighbours. There is a sun deck on the roof top and a brand new kitchen on the ground floor. It is perfect for couples but if one wishes to entertain local friends there is seating at a table for four persons on the roof with a rather fine bespoke barbecue and there is plenty of crockery, glasses etc.

A real jem in Kalkan
It was even cozier and nicer than I expected! On the scenic street close to everything including the beach. The house is tiny but has everything you need. The view of the terrace is breathtaking. Communication with the host was smooth and very pleasant. Lyn was always helpful. I can only recommend.

Kalkan trip
No surprises as property was as expected from description. Easily found and nicely located and great views from roof terrace. Seems to be fully equipped but as the property is small, items could be slimmed down and could be depersonalised, so a little more space for guests items. Optional welcome pack may be a nice touch, as we needed to by essentials such as toilet paper and washing up liquid, also condiments. If we had known we would have brought these, so info would be good on the ad. The only other thing to add, which is outside of the Hosts control. The street although narrow seems to turn into a major thoroughfare for cars and more noticeably motor bikes later in the evening, which does go on to the early hours. This can be very noisy. This street is meant to be closed to traffic at certain times, but this seems to be ignored.

As it says on the tin!
This is exactly what we expected. The cottage is a stones throw from the beach and the centre of Kalkan. It is small but perfectly formed and suits a couple well. The roof terrace is a gem with a beautiful view, a BBQ, and a table for 4. We loved every minute of our stay here.

About the host

Hosted by Lyn Farrar

Host profile image
I am the proud Mother of five young professionals, a wife to my Property Consultant husband of countless years and owner of a menagerie of pets who have a "live in nanny" for when I am away. I have a passion for all things, "old" and many things new with a never ending interest in architecture and design both in house
and garden. I am an artist, Interiour designer, writer and chefey connoisseur of all things fresh and good which makes Kalkan and its local
produce extremely attractive to me. I love the
people of Kalkan and have many local friends who I love to see and spend time with whenever I am in Kalkan. My aim is to provide a wonderful home from home for discerning guests and I hope Honeymooners in particular. There is a definite shortage of good, well thought out properties for couples and I hope to help fill that gap. The Cottage could sleep four and will be fully equipped for this possibility but I would prefer to let it to couples and will price it with this in mind.

Why they chose this property

Old Town Cottage is the sort of, "little gem" that is impossible to miss. I have owned and let Villa Simzer since falling in love with Kalkan some six years ago. I walk through Old Town a lot, just looking at the beauty of the narrow cobbled streets and I have always wanted to own my own little piece of Paradise. Luckily, my girlfriend and local Kalkan Lawyer, Kader Gunes was told of the possibility of one of the little Cottages in the very best, favourite, cobbled street and was able to snap it up before word got out. It must have been meant as I knew, it was almost impossible to find anyone willing to sell anything in that part of Old Town. Since buying it, I have worked with the local craftsmen to fully renovate and "deck out" my Cottage to the highest standard but retaining as much of its original features as possible. There are many restrictions on the preservation of Old Town which must be respected of course. Just getting permission to change the internal aspects meant many appeals to and visits from officials in Antalia and even getting water and electricity put in required an elaborate project submission which took Months before a satisfactory conclusion was met. Well worth it though!

What makes this property unique

A short stroll to the beach, harbour, restaurants, shops and bars. The peace and quiet with the sound of little boats chugging into the harbour. The view of the beautiful Kalkan Bay from the Street, the balcony and the sun deck. Good Management is essential in case of queries or problems of any nature. I run a, "use andreplace" system for cupboard basics as I find it very annoying when I have to shop before I can sprinkle a bit of salt on a salad leaf or rinse a dish etc. All my guests need to do is book flights and I can arrange and advise on anything else. If, I don't know something, I will know someone who does. I am contactable almost any time as are my Management team in Kalkan. I am hoping for couples to form a returning list of valued guests over time. I would like to see a few honeymooners. The Cottage can sleep four in two double beds but I would prefer to let to just one couple so, I will charge extra for any more than two guests. I am after perfection with romance in mind. Kalkan, Old Town is totally magical! Wifi/internet is available everywhere in Kalkan. I just buy a coffee close to the Cottage and job done. I am in the queue to get it officially put on but "next week" can mean anything in Turkey and it is rare I can't get a share.
