Lesley & Graham's Villa - Torba Village, Bodrum, Turkey

Welcome to Turkey and our house, we love it and are sure you will too. The house is situated in a private complex of about 20 houses, all of which are privately owned, many people live here all year round, giving the complex a friendly feel, ideal for families. The complex has a large swimming pool (15x15m) and a smaller splash pool for children, with sun loungers and umbrellas surrounding the pools. There is also a tennis court for residents use, and a shaded car park. You will find the pool and tennis courts empty at most times. Turkish people have no desire to be so adventurous during the sunny periods!

Torba is a small seaside village on the north of the Bodrum peninsula. It has all the local facilities which include convenience stores, hairdresser, restaurants, travel agent and harbour. It offers an ideal base for discovering the peninsula and Bodrum.

Whilst Torba offers a peaceful haven from the crowds, it is only a short bus ride away from Bodrum, with its bustling range of restaurants, bars, shops, great castle and harbour. Dolmus (mini-buses) are available throughout the year from outside our complex in Torba to Bodrum and run 24 hours a day at a cost of just 70 pence. From Bodrum there are excellent transport links from which you can explore the whole of the peninsula.

For those lazy days, the villa has lovely relaxing surroundings. You can spend time sitting in the garden, lazing by the swimming pool, or reading in the air conditioned lounge.

The Villa is built on 3 levels to make the most of outdoor eating and inside accommodation. It provides spacious self catering holiday accommodation in a convenient yet quiet corner of the Bodrum peninsula.
