A calm retreat just behind Kyrenia
Kyrenia (Girne) is a lively town: the harbour, narrow lanes, busy summer streets and plenty of flats. Many town cats live happily between the balcony and the sofa, while dogs get their walks early in the morning or once the evening cools down. When you travel for a holiday, for work or for the whole winter, you want that routine to carry on without a hitch. That is exactly what PurrNest is for: a boutique cat and dog hotel in Dikmen, on the main Girne–Lefkoşa road just south of the Beşparmak mountain pass, away from the bustle.
From Kyrenia town centre the drive to Dikmen takes approximately 15 minutes, depending on traffic. So if you are looking for a cat hotel in Kyrenia, we are almost as close as the town itself — just a great deal quieter.
We collect from your door and bring them home
Kyrenia centre is in the same transfer zone as Dikmen, and home pick-up and drop-off is available here; the cost is set out in your personalised quote. On transfer day:
- We agree a time with you — in summer we prefer the cooler hours of the morning or evening.
- You have the carrier ready for your cat, or the lead or harness for your dog.
- We take the vaccination card or pet passport, their usual food and any medication with written instructions.
- On arrival our vet carries out a first check, and we send you the first photo.
Why Kyrenia families choose PurrNest
Many British, Russian-speaking and other expat households in Kyrenia travel via Ercan or Larnaca. Pets cannot cross the Green Line, so anyone flying from Larnaca needs somewhere safe for their pet in the north. With us every guest has a private, cage-free room of their own; the cat and dog wings are completely separate, so there is no scent or noise stress. With 24/7 supervision, our in-house vet and daily photos and videos, you can enjoy your trip with complete peace of mind.
