"Huzur Vadisi is one of those rare jewels that you want to keep secret but don't because you'd feel too selfish. Idyllic, nestled in the most beautiful scenery, the hospitality is unequalled and the food worth the trip in itself. If you want peace and quiet, real nature, real food and real people, Huzur Vadisi is for you." - Michele Pernetta, Bikram Yoga College. London
Huzur Vadisi has been running since 1993 as a venue for inspiring, relaxing yoga holidays in the pine forested mountains of Turkey's stunning 'Turquoise' coast.
Meaning 'peaceful valley', Huzur Vadisi is built around a traditional restored farmstead with a natural stone swimming pool and a spacious shaded yoga sala. Accommodation is in comfortably appointed yurts scattered among the olive groves. Some rooms are also available. Huzur Vadisi's combination of stunning unspoilt location, welcoming and experienced staff, and 'legendary' food, ensures a memorable experience for which people return year after year.
A variety of yoga styles and disciplines with first rate teachers are available from May through to September.
