“You need to get away,”
said the doctor.
“You are not taking good care of yourself.
You should at least take a break for a few days
and connect with nature.
Your vibrant soul is fading
amidst the gray smokes of the industry
as you keep rushing in the crowded city.
The life that you built with so much labor
is trying to catch up with you…”
It was that warning that prompted our grandma,
who devoted her life to her career as a lawyer,
to escape from Istanbul
to a place close by yet far away.
Grandma spotted this stretch of land in 1995 as she and grandpa were driving by. She decided to make her new home here on an empty piece of land with barely a few trees and started to build the farm to which she would dedicate the rest of her life.
She decorated each room for her children with fireplaces, meticulously collected antiques and beautiful items purchased at auctions. Life on the farm began once the trees she planted bloomed and the barren land turned into vineyards.
We loved this farm so much and felt so good here that we named it Grandma's Wonderland. And soon after, we started to share our increasingly abundant harvest with people around us.
In the next chapter of our story, we wanted to invite more like-minded people to our farm.
So we created a boutique hotel by turning some of our rooms into guest rooms
and a restaurant converted from the old horse stables to bring our own produce from the farm to the tables.
is not your typical country hotel or restaurant…
It is the story of finding refuge in and connecting with nature.
We are calling out to the free spirits trapped in the city…
Grandma’s Wonderland invites you to take a break
and ground yourself
in an authentic friendly and cozy setting
steeped in nature and painted in all the colors of Earth.
