Bodrum

The town of Bodrum and its surrounding peninsula is a beautiful area, and a popular tourist destination. Bodrum boasts some of the best shopping in Turkey, combined with a wide selection of restaurants, bars and night clubs - making it a hive of activity in the busy summer months and popular with all people of all ages.

Bodrum's elegant cobbled streets, magnificent harbour and a world renowned castle make it an extremely popular area for property purchase. An added bonus of Bodrum is that most of the property plots on the peninsula (located 25 minutes drive from the centre), benefit from sea views.

It is easy to jump on a boat for the day, maybe take a trip to the Greek island of Kos. For a quieter location, the smaller peninsula resorts around Bodrum offer tranquillity, relaxed beaches and spectacular views.

Properties in the Bodrum region start from around £40,000 for a two-bedroom apartment, right through to £500,000 so there is plenty of choice.

The town of Bodrum is a 35-minute drive from Bodrum Milas airport.
