The owner of a Turkish hotel says the country is no more dangerous “than any other place in Europe” - despite a drop in UK package holiday bookings to the country.

5 live has exclusive figures from GFK, a firm which looks at British foreign package holidays, which show a 32% drop in such bookings from the UK to Turkey from April 2015 to 2016.
