LES MAISONS DE CAPPADOCE
Uchisar,
NEVSEHIR / TURKEY
Over the
last fifteen years, Cappadocia, like so many other magical far-off
places, has been 'discovered' by the mass-tourism industry. This has
resulted in some unfortunate disfiguration and some disappointment
for those who come here for the first time.
Miraculously, Uçhisar has escaped tasteless over-development, thanks
in part to its classification by UNESCO as a protected World
Heritage site. It is no coincidence that it is in this modest
village that the Maisons de Cappadoce are located.
From the beginning, we have maintained a rigorous respect for the
local architecture and scale of our surroundings. Each house has
been meticulously restored to its original majesty, often from
ancient photos when available, by our own trained crew of local
craftsmen. Modern amenities and full comfort have been added to each
house.
A stay at Maisons de Cappadoce is a way to experience
Cappadocia in another way, respectful of its people, the environment,
and the natural beauty of the region.
Fifteen Maisons de Cappadoce are currently available for rental: 10
large houses (suitable for groups of 4 to 9 persons) and 5 studios (for
2 or 3 persons).
Kitchens and kitchenettes are fully equipped. Bathrooms are
outfitted with shower, marble washbasins, and WC.
