spotlight magazine Jun 2006 international locations
Cyprus : Holborn Studios
Holborn Studios has a new Location Support facility in Cyprus. The island was selected because "it is a microcosm of world location photography". All the pictures featured here were shot on the island.
It takes about three hours to cross from one of the island to the other by car. This, together with more than 300 dry, sunny days a year, and a very co-operative local attitude make it easy to get good location pictures.
Holborn Studios' fleet of vehicles includes a motor yacht and specially equipped Land Rover Defender and an assortment of people carriers. After flying in to Larnaca, you will be met at the arrivals hall and accompanied throughout the trip. The St Raphael Marina Resort provides excellent accommodation and facilities, and has central access to the whole island.
Holborn Studios have over 20 years experience of Cyprus and can provide virtually any location within a three hour drive. They can also reach inaccessible places by yacht, and can provide sea or land sunrises and sunsets. There are literally hundreds of different types of swimming pool and dozens of different types of beach available in Cyprus.
