This is another one of our special cave
suites. "Tafana" stands for kitchen in local Turkish.
There’s a pit in the floor, called tandir, which was used as
a sort of cooking oven. It follows that the landlord used
this area as a kitchen in the past. During the restoration
work, we didn’t touch this pit or the blackness on the
ceiling caused by the use of this oven. On the contrary, we
did our best to preserve it as such. Aunt Hanim, the owner
of this cave house used to bake bread and cook dishes in
earthenware pots in this tandir. At the moment we are
cooking the same traditional dishes in the restaurant of the
hotel to please you, our guests.
In this suite there’s a living room with a
great window from where you can view the wonderful Love
Valley. You may sit on the sofa, and while you sip your
coffee, you may watch the scenery and at the same time
admire the 18th century Konya rug on the wall, a rare item
of our collection
