In the heart of Croatia’s Istrian Peninsula, we have this charming villa. Istra is known for its protected harbor, beach-lined coast, and ancient Roman ruins. It is perfectly located between the Gulf of Trieste and the Kvarner Gulf. Settled in the prehistoric era and valued for its strategic location, Istra has an unspoiled natural landscape that is magical and breathtaking. Known for its mild climate and by the Brijuni National Park in close proximity Istra is a true gem rich in cultural and historical heritage. With its fourteen islands and islets of exceptional beauty, safari park, the remains of Roman and Austro-Hungarian villas is a wonderful blend of nature and culture. If you fancy a spontaneous trip to the cities near, there is Pula one of the most famous places in the Istrian peninsula, and along with other historical places is most conveniently positioned for traveling to neighboring countries. It’s under two hours drive to It...
