While many Cypriots live in cities and most holidaymakers stay in the coastal areas, the lion's share of the island consists of unspoilt hinterland with villages steeped in timeless tradition.
Here, you'll find the quit rhythms of country life, customs,
home style cooking and the hearty hospitality of the village people. Stroll through fragrant gardens, orange and lemon groves and you'll encounter Cyprus at its
authentic best.
In rural or semi-rural areas, hotels are mostly small or medium
sized. In addition, beautiful village houses have been restored in traditional style and they operate as
licensed holiday accommodation.
They can be country inns, holiday homes or apartments with fully equipped kitchens. All feature typical furnishing and often include
gardens and inner courtyards, balconies and terraces. Stay at any one of these and you'll feel a part of genuine village life.
