About Jacqui Sharpe
We love living here with our daughter and 2 rescue pointers.
Why Jacqui Sharpe chose Bellapais
We fell in love with the stunning u spoilt location and have worked with a local architect to create our dream home. What we adore here is that is totally private from the road but opens up on entering the property to reveal the amazing vista that is so unique to North Cyprus.
What makes this Apartment unique
Whilst it has a sense of seclusion, situated on a private road, you can stroll to the local village in 15 minutes. We feel one of its main benefits is that it is so near to Kyrenia and Bellapais, yet feels private. Coco and Maddie, both rescue pointers, live in their own garden, whilst Ralph the tortoise lives in the little garden outside the garden studio.

Wonderful views
5/5 Stayed Oct 2017

We had a lovely relaxing time. The property was clean and tidy all the time. Ian and Jacqui were very helpful with restaurants and places to visit. The room had lots of information about the northern part of Cyprus. Although we were staying in the pool studio we were enjoying the views and facilities of a stunning location.

Thanks for your review, so glad you enjoyed your stay.
We have decided to act on your suggestion of creating a further decked area suspended out on to the ravine for the garden studio and hope to have this completed in time for your next visit:)
An oasis of peace and beauty
5/5 Stayed Sep 2017
Had a fantastic time staying at this property. Hosts Jacqui and Ian are very welcoming and have a wealth of knowledge of the local area. The studio is very comfortable and well equipped and they have clearly put a lot of thought in to making sure guests have private areas to enjoy. The infinity pool is beautiful if not a bit chilly but the views over the ravine looking towards Bellapais and the coast are simply stunning. I have stayed many times in northern Cyprus and thus is definitely top of the list for peace and quiet and amazing views. Would definitely recommend

Fantastic Villa and Pool
5/5 Stayed Jul 2017
Dave S.England
We had a fantastic holiday. The villas are spotless and everything you require is in them. It worked great with our two teenagers who had a studio to themselves. Both studios are done to a very high standard.
The views and pool are beautiful which we used a lot of the time and also enjoyed using the pool table.
Ian and Jacqui are great hosts and very helpful providing us with lots of information. Nothing is too much trouble for them.
This is the best accommodation we have ever stayed in and won't find anywhere else as nice as this again. Will definitely come back.
Highly recommend!!
Thankyou

We were looking for a peaceful retreat after a busy first week in North Cyprus.
We were not disappointed.Jacqui and Ian have provided a lovely haven with outstanding views.
The accommodation is spotless and the pool area is just a fantastic place to be at any time of the day or evening.
Plenty of comfortable seating and lots of space.
Jacqui and Ian were perfect hosts. They provided information about the area and were on hand if needed.
We really , really enjoyed our stay and when we return to Cyprus we will certainly book the property again.
