Garden House

Change over day: Flexible

• We came to stay at Garden House for three nights at the end of our honeymoon. Alison, the host, immediately made us feel very welcome and went well beyond the call of duty throughout. The house itself is beautiful and well appointed. It has a largeish, carefully tended garden with a shady outdoor seating area, and another covered table with a barbecue out at the back. Inside, Garden House is cosy and tastefully decorated. We had an excellent time and thoroughly recommend staying here.

• We booked Garden House for 2 nights and this is our only complain! We should have stayed longer, enjoy this fantastic designed property! The house was clearly design/ renovated by a professional, you can easily detect small well-placed details like build-in cabinets, the layout of the rooms, the kitchen appliances, the custom- made wooden furniture. It has everything you might think ( kitchen supplies, bathroom supplies, extra towels, extra sheets and blankets)! We appreciated the design of the shower and the speed of hot running water. The outside space is also fantastic and the yard is beautiful, with manicured grass. In the morning the jasmine and yellow rose smell divine! Bonus: the fluffiest purring cat ever! Extra bonus: a likeable host, anticipating her guests needs! Had exchange lot of messages helping us to get there, provided info about places to eat or to buy. Never had to wait for a response! We are sure that not only Garden House, but all Alison's properties are beautiful and worth to stay at! We would return anytime!

• The Garden house was a great stay. The pictures are an accurate representation of the house and grounds. Quite, clean and well appointed. We sincerely enjoyed the stay. Alison was very helpful and communicated well. Hope we can stay there again in the future. NB - If you do have young kids you should be aware that there are some cactus on the property that kids could get into. My one year old could play in the grass and chase the cats around but we did have to watch for the sharp plants. For slightly older kids it would be fine but you have to watch for the little ones.

• We actually were upgraded to the Ionia House because another family was staying at the Garden House and Alison wanted to make sure our place was available on arrival and did not want our family to wait for the cleaning! Alison was a fabulous hostess, she met us at the Ionia House and explained everything upon arrival. She made arrangements for transfers to and from the airport, and a guide to Ephesus for a day. The Ionian House is beautifully restored. Alison also had breakfast items available for us. The Ionia House is centrally located with a beautiful view of the Byzantine Castle. The only issue was the Wifi for the internet was having some issues. Alison stopped by the next morning with her son to try and fix it. The Wifi internet was up and down and not working consistently. But there are many places with free Wifi around town. The people in Turkey are gracious and helpful. We were surprised at how many spoke English. Our guide even brought us some home made quiche and yogurt, his sister made. We would definitely recommend this property and stay with Alison again!!
