I always used to say I'd never go to Turkey then I went to our game v besiktas. It was fantastic.
I've been on holiday to turkey every year since and am going twice next year.
Wonderful place, wonderful people. Sad that situations of this sort could ruin a country.

Obviously there hasn't been any issues at the resorts Dave but would you feel comfortable taking your family to (say) Istanbul?

C I always used to say I'd never go to Turkey then I went to our game v besiktas. It was fantastic. I've been on holiday to turkey every year since and am going twice next year. Wonderful place, wonderful people. Sad that situations of this sort could ruin a country. Obviously there hasn't been any issues at the resorts Dave but would you feel comfortable taking your family to(say) Istanbul? No mate. Hence I say how sad it is that things like this could destroy a country. Istanbul is a near 3 hour flight from the holiday resorts yet visitor numbers are falling in an area almost totally reliant on tourism. The golf out there is as good as anywhere in the world.

Good to hear mate and I've had the same discussion with a fellow Stokie about holidays in Turkey who loves it and goes every year come what may.Having only been to Icmeler and Mamaris I suppose it's hard to judge the rest of the country.It just concerns me travelling there but like I said earlier each to their own

I had friends in balek when the coup happened earlier in the year and they came home totally unaware of what had happened. Its so far away from Istanbul it could be another country but people don't travel thinking its close by and dangerous.

We have a place out there,had it 12 years in Kusadasi area .In fact we were there when the coup was going on if it wasnt for TV we wouldnt have known.
The Aegean resorts are so gentile.
For years i wouldnt go there,when i did i was shocked and ashamed at my generalisations.The family of all ages love it.
Great people on the whole who will do anything for you.
As for Istanbul i wouldnt know ,but thats where the bombs go off usually gainst the state ,buildings and police.

If a Turkish person were to only visit Rhyl and judge the whole of the UK by it they'd probably say the same. There's some fantastic places in Turkey, been 4 times and always enjoyed it, people were great everywhere we went.

We have a friend out there who's getting married in Istanbul in February and we've all been invited. Istanbul is a superb city and would normally jump at the chance but with the kids in mind I think we'll be declining. Shame as like some have already said I never really fancied Turkey but having been a few times it's a fantastic place to visit...
