Selçuk is located on the west coast of Turkey, 70km south of Izmir and 190km north of Bodrum. You can get to Selçuk by land and sea but most people choose the quicker option of flying which means nowadays there are flights readily available at competitive prices from all major UK and Irish airports to Izmir, Bodrum and of course Istanbul. However, if you are not keen on flying do not rule out other methods of transport such as a cruise via the port of Kusadasi as this is only 20km away from Selçuk. Alternatively, for the more adventurous there is a train from London to Istanbul, then from Istanbul to Selçuk via Izmir. Note. The key is to make your way to one of the bigger cities i.e. Izmir or Istanbul because from here there are lots of ways of getting to Selçuk most of which are direct.

Serenity Cottage a little oasis in busy Selcuk

Review Submitted: June 30, 2009 Date of Stay: June 2009
My husband and I found this property to be as nice as the photos indicate, clean and well-maintained. The property manager is nearby and was very helpful with information on the local sites. We were only 4 blocks from the bus station and managed quite well without a car. There are plenty of good restaurants in town that one can walk to. We also took the bus to Kusadasi for the day, Sirence in the mountains, and of course, Ephesus. You can reach the beach at Pamucak by bus in 20 min or so. I would recommend this cottage to anyone who wants to explore this part of Turkey.

Review Submitted: April 17, 2009 Date of Stay: April 2009
Selcuk selber macht schon einen ansprechenden Eindruck - erst recht unser liebevoll restauriertes Steinhaus am Stadtrand, dem Artemistempel gegenüber.
Wir waren begeistert von dem auf mehreren Etagen angelegten Anwesen mit verträumten Sitzecken im Grünen und der Dachterrasse mit Blick über die Dächer.
Überzeugt hat uns auch die komplette Kücheneinrichtung und die stilechte Ausstattung der Räume.
