What's New in 2014 for holidays in Turkey

On The beach in Cirali, Mediterranean region

For a truly relaxing break, stay right on çirali beach, near Antalya in southern Turkey, in a wooden chalet for two. The large beach has protected status as a nesting ground for sea turtles so it is totally unspoilt, and is backed by lush gardens with mountains beyond. All chalets – eight in total – have private porches with hammocks, and bikes are provided. A huge breakfast is included in the price, with fresh eggs, freshly baked bread and homemade jams. Four-course evening meals, with ingredients sourced from local organic farms, are an optional extra. A tour for toddlers, Mediterranean region

Exodus's Turkey Toddler Adventure has been designed with young families in mind. It's a hassle-free mix of relaxing and exploring, based in the harbour town of Kas in southern Turkey. Activities include splashing about at Sakliken Canyon, a gentle boat ride to an island, snorkelling over a sunken city, and castle and farm visits. Accommodation is a hotel 10 minutes' walk from the harbour, with a good restaurant and an excellent pool area.

The Organic Eco Farm in Fethiye, south-west Turkey, is an idyllic place for a bucolic family holiday. The farm is in the middle of a valley, surrounded by pine forests and bounded by a river. Arts and crafts workshops will keep children busy as they make souvenirs or learn to bake bread and borek (fried filled pastries). They can also help out around the farm and meet the animals, go fishing and swim in the pool, or visit the beach a 10-minute drive away. Families stay in stone, wood or mudbrick bungalows, and all food is healthy, organic and local.

This yoga centre is 20 minutes from the nearest village, so it offers total peace and relaxation. Work on your asanas at the edge of a pine forest, among olive and carob trees, with the scent of bougainvillea wafting through the breeze. The temptingly named Paradise Bay is a 10-minute walk away, and it's also possible to walk to Bodrum across the hills and along a dried river bed. A free minibus will take you to a nearby hammam for an exfoliating scrub and a foam massage.

Turkey Cappadocia, Central Anatolia

Most holidaymakers see Cappadocia from above, in a hot air balloon, or below, in the caves. But Inntravel has put together a guided walking holiday to help visitors explore the surface of this extraordinary landscape. The unique geology of this region includes some of the world's strangest rock formations. Walkers can get up close to tall white columns hiding rock-hewn churches, hike along the floor of a dramatic gorge, and explore the underground city of Kaymakli. Accommodation is in four boutique hotels, including one partially built in the cliffs at the cave town of Göreme.
