We have a house in Koca Calis. The walk to Calis Beach promenade takes about 45 mins at a steady pace. We tend to either bike there and back or walk in and get a taxi home if it's late. Taxis are about 20ytl one way.
Rustic is a fair description but I prefer 'rural' as we have our little village (Ciftlik) which has it's own charm and is much more like the Turkey we remember from years ago.
