Our organisation is an animal rescue charity. We receive no government help and are totally dependent on donations from local and international supporters. Currently we take care of over 350 homeless dogs and cats with the support of volunteers and staff. In 2017 we celebrated our 20th Anniversary and are proud of what we have achieved in that time. We will continue to care for the vulnerable stray animals in the Girne area. We welcome visits from members of the public who are encouraged to interact with the cats and dogs , walk dogs in our beautiful setting, groom the cats, kittens, puppies and dogs. Visitors are welcome any day from 9 am to 1pm - no need to book. Just turn up with sun hats, sun cream, water and lots of love - our residents will be delighted to see them.

This rescue shelter is truly a place of wonder. The staff and volunteers work tirelessly with all their love to make sure every dog and cat gets the individual attention and care they need until they hopefully find their forever home. Pens are cleaned every single day and it warms the heart to see so many wonderful wagging tails eager to greet you when you visit this wonderful haven for animals in need. It is clear that everyone who works there absolutely loves the animals and their job, and they couldn't be doing more to encourage and educate the local community about pet care and adoption. We fell in love with a pointer-retriever mix last Christmas when we were in Cyprus visiting my parents. His name at the time was Drew, and he was the biggest, sweetest, most joyful bundle my fiancee and I could have ever hoped for. We were informed that his previous adoption had fallen through, and I can only believe that it was because he was meant to be with us instead because on Christmas Eve, we decided we needed him no matter what and promptly signed the adoption papers to seal the deal. Drew was Canada bound! He is now a part of our small family and we cannot imagine life without him. We come home every day from work eager to see him, and he greets us like we are the rockstars of his world. His love knows no limits, and it is all thanks to Elaine, the director of KAR, and her amazing team that has brought our baby home to us. We are so blessed and grateful and we hope everyone who visits considers adoption or volunteering because the rewards you get are priceless when you look into your future fur baby's eyes and know you have also made a difference.

Very interesting place for people who are into natural science - mainly geology. We asked for the long version of the movie - a bit hard to follow but even our teenager was interested.

Amazing facility providing medical care, shelter and food for over 200 cats. Brilliant place to visit and play with cats. A cafe or vending machine would be handy. Only 10 mins from My Mall.
9. Minthis Golf Club
Overall Ratings
4.0 based on 344 reviews
Minthis is a beautiful and challenging course that winds its way past a 12th-century monastery with breath-taking views of the Cyprus Troodos Mountains and beyond. The 18-hole championship course boasts outstanding holes where views and vistas are a distinctive feature, organically following the natural undulations of the topography, looping past water features and ancient groves, with hundreds of olive trees, fruit orchards and grapevines with the mountains in the distance beyond. Designed by legendary golf architect Donald Steel in 1994 and renovated by renowned course designers Mackenzie and Ebert, the course is a flawless example of their philosophy that golf courses should fit into the terrain, be in keeping with their setting and focus on the details.

From the moment you enter the pro shop you are greeted with wonderful, helpful staff. The guys in the caddie shop couldn't be more helpful and welcoming, nothingbisctoo much trouble. I love playing up here because the greens are in wonderful condition and everyone you come across on the course is so welcoming. Over the many years I have played up here I have nothing but great memories, from all the staff but also the panoramic views you are afforded on your round. The bar and restaurant has a wonderful ambience and the food is also superb. You will certainly not be disappointed if you decide to pay Minthis Hills a visit.

We are just back from a visit to the lake. Every Monday between the 1st of November and the 31st March 10.15 to 12.30 there is a free bird watching session followed by a basket weaving and cookery demonstration. Yiota was a brilliant enthusiastic bird guide she obviously loves the lake and its birdlife. Even though she got upset as a Marsh Harrier tried to kill a duck for its breakfast! This was followed by a basket making and cookery demo by Petros who was an equally good host not trying to force us to buy anything (although we did) and showing us how to make Olive savouries. he had lots of samples that he had made earlier to give away. Thanks to both of them for a great experience.
