Bellapais Gardens Hotel and Restaurant
Description
For a unique experience and a refreshing journey in Cyprus, Bellapais Gardens Unique Hotel and restaurant is the place to go. This is a quite unique opportunity to experience the ‘real’ Cyprus, staying in the most beautiful setting imaginable and with a 13th-century abbey as your neighbour! Located in the very heart of the picturesque and charming village of Bellapais, Bellapais Gardens is a peaceful haven of just 9 Coottages and 8 studio apartments . Set amongst orange and lemon groves and maginatively designed to blend in with its quite spectacular setting, this hotel has an unrivalled elegance and atmosphere. Bellapais Gardens is literally surrounded by history. Bellapais Abbey and ‘Bitter Lemons’ (the house immortalised in Durrell’s classic of the same name) are both a stone’s throw away. The whole area is criss-crossed with old Crusader roads, dating back to the time of Richard the Lionheart, and walking along these trails gives the visitor a rare insight into the history of this quite exceptional region. The focal point of Bellapais Gardens is the traditionally-adorned cliff-top lounge/dining room with its welcoming log fire. Affording spectacular views over the Kyrenia coastline, it is beautifully furnished and a treasure trove of Cypriot antiques and bric-a-brac.
Bellapais Gardens is the only hotel based in the heart of the famous Village. With a stunning location - the famous Abbey to one side, and a lush green valley to the other – guests benefit from views of this most beautiful part of Kyrenia day and night.
The hotel boasts the style and intimate atmosphere to satisfy the most discerning of holidaymakers. The complex is private and guests are encouraged to pick their own fresh oranges and lemons
or in fact any other fruit growing naturally and organically in theb beautiful gardens, a delightful touch!
