Because Northern Cyprus ’s beautiful, it’s sunny and it’s still relatively unspoilt.

For a holiday retreat or a retirement home, prices are still absurdly low.

There’s much to see and do: castles, walled cities, abbeys, Roman remains, music festivals to attend, mountain tours, nature walks, sailing and scuba diving.

Yet life moves at the sort of slow pace Europe experienced half a century ago.
