Hi All,

We are coming out on 16.04.08 to view our new apartment in Tatlisu and hopefully do as much in way of furnishing as poss. We have googled and come up with Home Pack Interiors, Mehmet Osman Ticaret Merkezi, Alsancak, Girne, http://www.homepack-interiors.com, and would like to know if anyone has used them and if so any comments welcome.



Also looking for a cheap, sorry inexpensive, place to stay for a week 16.04 - 23.04, preferably around Kyrenia.

Cheers

Steve

Hi Triumphman

There are lots of places you could stay around Girne and this time of year they are crying out for people to stay. I'd try Highlife which is in Karaman/Ozonkoy. The rooms are reasonable and the owners are very friendly. Its quite a small hotel only about 20 rooms. They have a website http://www.highlifecyprus.com/

Another one is the Altinkaya which is on the Belapais road but in Girne.



I think Ismet's daughter does furniture packages.

Hi Triumpman, You could try the Pia Bella or Altinkum apartments in Kyrenia, I have stayed in both, excellent. I would say the Pia Bella is the best hotel I have stayed in. 4* and not as expensive as you may think.

hi triumphman



homepack is part of homefront

they are one of the main suppliers of packs made locally

very nice people, run by mike o'keefe and miss missus ebru

worthwhile going to see them because all their stuff

can be seen in the showroom

you can have sizes and materials exactly as you want

delivery is about 4-6 weeks

homefront is the source of joans furniture package



on the other side of town olgun also supply many developers

they have nice stuff but it is mostly imports

so you must allow generous time to be sure it will arrive on the island



there are other good firms in girne and lots in lefkosa

but there is the problem of being sure that any items

needed to be imported for you will be available on the day as it were



most developers offer packages of course,

if you like their choices this is most convenient

but expect to pay somewhat more



conversely you can negociate about 15 percent off list

if you buy a basic set of furniture from one supplier



hope this is helpful!

I can recommend HomeFront. The last items I had made is my Garden Furniture, again to my design. We have also had seating, beds, railings, curtain poles, fire grates. They also make lovely wooden furniture now. Also, if you have a picture of a couch or anything else you like, they will copy it for you. They have their own workshop on site where they make everything, so you can see items in progress. Mike & Ebru are the owners. http://www.homefrontcyprus.com
