The season proper has just started and our first summer guests are in Cyprus. The weather is already perfect for them. Mid 20s with very warm sun and the island is at its greenest after the winter rains. Rain will be very little from now on till perhaps December apart from the odd shower. We particularly enjoy May and June when the sun is plenty hot for all meals to be taken outside but not too hot to make us unwilling to leave the confines of the pool. This is the ideal time to visit the old town in Nicosia and enjoy a coffee in the atmospheric Great Han, pretending to be a tourist in the middle ages, visit the bazaars there and see a Whirling Dervish performance. Or to climb to the heights of St Hilarion castle and marvel at the views once enjoyed exclusively by the Lusignan knights. There are a lot of things to see and do here. Far too many for a two week holiday. We're still catching up after 9 years!
One of my favourite moments of the day is when I open the bedroom curtains and there it is all is - green mountains and glittering blue sea! It still gives me such a thrill. Some days I can even see the Turkish coast in the distance.
The school holidays through to mid November are now booked solid but we do have availability in May, June and the first weeks of July. There are daily flights to Ercan or Larnaca from regional UK airports and Pegasus have just launched a new service from Gatwick to Ercan to complement their Stansted departures. Hope some of our Facebook followers can make use of them.
