LADERA COTTAGE is a traditional cypriot house in the heart of the village of Ozankoy (Kazaphani), and just minutes from Kyrenia Harbour.

The cottage is believed to be around 250 years old and for the past 40 odd years has been British owned. It was purchased by the current owner in March 2014 in a very neglected state and was renovated to a very high standard.

This is a very popular holiday rental and received many 5 Star Reviews.

In June 2023 the owner with the help of a team of builders, pool experts, a plumber and electrician restored the property to its original glory

The thick stone walls make this cottage noticeably cooler in summer and warmer in winter, and particularly in the master bedroom on the lower level. The cottage retains all original wooden and flagstone floors, beamed and bamboo ceilings and a working log fire for cooler winter nights. The house is dressed with a wealth of antiques, including a magnificent traditional Cypriot 4 Poster Bed in the master bedroom, making this house a must for those who want to experience Cyprus life both past and present, with a romantic twist. It is now a preserved piece of Cyprus history.

The private, screened and peaceful garden has fruit trees and a covered area with plants growing over a frame, and there are many flowers. There is a sweet smell of Jasmine and Lemon all around, and there are a wealth of Amphora pots from times gone by for you to admire too. All beautifully landscaped on two levels with the unique plunge pool being the feature of this private outside living space. The remotely controlled underwater RGB lighting is simply stunning at night combined with a waterfall flowing from an old Amphora Pot. You can sit and enjoy reading a book whilst having a drink under the sun or stars in the pool, on the specially integrated seating that has a shelf for glasses decorated with hand painted Cypriot tiles. And next to the pool there is a large iron marble topped table with matching chairs on which to enjoy some alfresco dining. If that isn't enough, you can move up to the roof terrace to sunbathe on one of the loungers or the hammock, whilst admiring the stunning views of the mountains.

It is a 10 minute walk to the local bars and restaurants in the village. The local market in the village square stocks most things and is open from early morning until late at night and there is also a butcher, plus there are many larger supermarkets not far away, many of which stay open 24/7.

If you do not have a car, the local dolmus mini bus passes by the cottage every 20 minutes during the day and will take you to Kyrenia's bustling harbor cafes or drop you near a beach, but you may not want to leave the cottage for too long, for despite its wonderful & convenient location, it is such a private romantic and peaceful place, particularly in the evening.
