“Imagine a course in
small valleys with floors of stone and sand, among fairy chimneys
and cones pierced by troglodytic dwellings, in the middle of the
imposing and surprising sites of
Cappadocia,
a surprisingly little known area (there are nevertheless a lot of
people in July – August...).
This golf course is unlike any other
and will open in spring 2008, due to the effort of Omer Tosun, owner
of the
Museum Hotel
and
Matiana Travel,
assisted by a British friend from Ankara, a golfer at heart, and
other specialists: red or orange balls, departured unique clubhouse
nested on a rocky peak, caddies leading donkeys with harnesses
decorated with colourful woollen trimmings to carry the large baskets
for the clubs and fresh drinks...
At cocktail hour, on the terrace-bar of the “Museum Hotel”, when the
twilight adds to the supernatural aspects of the landscape, a
silence descends that is only interrupted by the sound of an organ
masterpiece or a requiem. Magical! Nobody speaks.
It is all so
perfect, so beautiful!”
