It was pitch black, and from the coastal village of Göçek we had just driven 2000 feet up a rough mountain track. When the minibus eventually stopped, we appeared to be in the middle of a valley with no signs of civilisation. But appearances were deceptive. Hidden within an olive grove were a number of yurts, traditional nomadic tents (yurt also means “home” in Turkish) clustered around a beautiful stone swimming pool. We had arrived at Huzur Vadisi (“Peaceful Valley”), one of the most imaginative alternative holiday centres in Turkey.
