Photos and Description of the Central Anatolia vacation house rental Peaceful & Elevated Location with Spectacular Views from a Stunning Sun Terrace.

The cave house has an elevated and stunning position high in the village of Uchisar (1300m) within the region of Cappadocia, central Turkey. The house has spectacularly romantic views both day and night across the Cappadocia valley and its historic troglodyte terrain. Uchisar overlooks the larger village of Goreme, sited on the 'Silk Road' trail, adding to the tourist facilities required. Living at a height of 1300m you will appreciate the coolness of the evenings during the summer months. From the rooms or the terrace you can watch the changing light every hour of the day until a magnificent sunset is painted across the sky, and then at night the site is illuminated creating a fairytale atmosphere. The area has UNESCO listed world patrimony for its natural and cultural value which attracts artists, historians, geologists, writers, photographers and environmentalists. The flora and fauna draws botanists and the terrain is a natural delight for those that love to walk.

Review Submitted: September 17, 2009 Date of Stay: August 2009
A truly pleasant cavehouse, than makes us to feel hosts and not tourists, in a fantastic and lively village, just a few steps from historical sites. The owners are persons extremely kindly and correct and accurate to provide all necessary information.

Amazing View

Adult Family Bath & Sheffield, UK
Review Submitted: September 30, 2008 Date of Stay: September 2008
This house was our favourite accommodation in a two week road trip around central Turkey. The scenery is spectacular from the bedrooms and terrace of this house and Uchisar itself has a number of great value eateries and well stocked village shops. It was good to be outside Goreme, which was markedly busier, but we were very close to all the main sites in the area. Only regret was not staying long enough to explore the area thoroughly on foot as it looks great for hiking. Get up early to watch the balloons decend into the air at dawn on the other side of the Kale near the house - it's a wonderful sight.
