About Shenis Hassan
I live in England with my Partner. I have Turkish Cypriot roots, I can speak fluent Turkish and my father was born in the Walled City of Famagusta. My partner and I visited the place and unknown to both of us we purchased a house in the street that my uncle and aunt live in. My family were delighted to hear of the news.
Shenis Hassan purchased this house in 2007
Why Shenis Hassan chose World
We fell in love with the historic city, we were warmly welcomed by all the neighbours, by my many relatives and of course the Turkish Cypriot People. The refurbishment of the house has been a labour of love by us and the community.
What makes this house unique
The property is just five minutes walk from historic buildings, museum, restaurants, bars, banks, shops, beach, the marina, etc. There is generally little need for a car hire or taxi as the house is very central. Fully air conditionednewly modernised and fully equipped with a suntrap private walled garden which is very quiet and spacious with olive and fruit trees. There is a tiled covered gazebo area allowing barbecues to be used all year round and sun lounges with umbrellas.

We booked to stay in this delightful house 2 days before we arrived,we were greeted with a welcome breakfast pack which was great as we arrived very late evening,Chris popped road in the morning to greet us and to give us all the information we may need,the house was very clean and had everything you could possibly ask for in a holiday let,the house is very close to shops and restaurants and 10-15 min walk to one of the best beachs in famagusta,we stayed in the first week of October and the weather was just wonderful,you have a lovely garden which is a sun trap from 9am - 2pm great if you like sun bathing as I do.Shenis the owner is great couldn't help enough,thank you ,we are hoping to return to this lovely place in June 2017 for a family wedding .
Excellent
We were looking for a quiet peaceful holiday and that is exactly what we got. The house is situated in a very quiet residential street, five minutes walk to the town square where there are shops and restaurants where you can try traditional Cypriot meals.
The house is very clean and spacious and has everything you would ever want or need. There is a wonderful courtyard garden which is a little suntrap and if you are anything like me and love to sunbathe then this is ideal for you. If you dont want to go out in the evening you can buy in an assortment of meats and cook them on the stone barbecue and eat in the barbecue area at the top of the garden.
The beach is about 15 - 20 minutes walk but if you have young children then I would recommend a taxi - Tanner the local taxi driver will take you anywhere you want to go and come back and collect you.
The owner of the property is extremely accommodating and will go the extra mile to assist. The property Manager leaves you a breakfast pack for the morning of your arrival which we felt was a very welcome idea. She will also make sure you know everything there is to know, how to get to places how to hire a car etc etc. There are a variety of leaflets and instructions on different tourist spots for you to read which we found very helpful.
I would highly recommend this property if you are looking for something quiet, peaceful and a home away from home.
Ruhiger und zentraler geht es nicht!
Das Haus liegt im Herzen der Altstadt von Famagusta. In wenigen Minuten sind die Sehenswürdigkeiten fußläufig zu erreichen. Ein kleiner Lebensmittelladen (Tülin) ist um die Ecke und das Essen beim Aspava Restoran ist noch immer sehr gut und reichlich.
Besonders zu erwähnen ist der tolle Garten nach Süden gerichtet (eine Gottesanbeterin empfand das genauso).
Einzig die beiden Duschen ohne Vorhang sind etwas gewöhnungsbedürftig.
Die Betreuung durch Chris war bestens.
Wir können das Courtyard-Haus uneingeschränkt empfehlen.

Welcome Pack:
As part of the Turkish Cypriot hospitality looking after our guests is very important. To ensure this tradition is honoured our guests will be provided with a free welcome pack. So no matter how late or early you arrive the pack will be there to say ‘Welcome’. The pack may vary from time to time but will broadly include: 2 bottles of large chilled water from the water cooler, tea, coffee, sugar, milk, 6 eggs, bread and butter.
