Could a holiday in Turkey lead to something more permanent?

People who head to Turkey for a holiday and enjoy the experience could be tempted to put down roots in the country, after it was named as a property investment haven.

A survey commissioned by Belek Golf Club found one-in-five independent financial advisers (IFAs) believe Turkey currently offers the best value to those looking to set up home abroad.

The nation, which straddles the border of Europe and Asia, was described as a hidden gem for property.

"Our figures show that IFAs are clearly seeing Turkey as an attractive investment opportunity, and with good reason."

However, it may be wise to book a holiday in Turkey before committing to a long-term move in order to ensure its beaches, history and culture live up to the hype.

Recent figures from the Turkish Culture and Tourism Office in the UK show the popularity of the country is on the rise, with 16 million people arriving in the first seven months of 2010.
