Yoshi, We have lived in the country in Scotland since 1983 and our place sits on a hill 1/3 of a mile from the main road, we have no near neighbour's. No street lights, no Tarmac road, no milkman, no bin pick up, also bonus no salesman calling. We have fields all around us, with birds of prey in the sky. We have pheasants in our garden, grouse, hares, rabbits, deer, we have a view of Slains Castle and the North Sea and we watch the Shetland ferry pass by every night, we love the peace and quiet of our country home.
Our place in Calis is right at the back and has farmers near us and is very peaceful, we have great neigbhours who we like very much. We are also just 5 minutes from the prom and 15 minutes from Fethiye. We bought our place in 2005 and love Calis. We would not consider anywhere else in the area and particular not a 20 minute drive up in the mountains. However, we are all different and all love different things. I hope to read in 10 years time that you are also enjoying where you have your Turkish home...Very good luck and best wishes.
