The prettiest beach in the area is less than 10 minutes drive away and there are shops, bars and restaurants within easy reach. A variety of local, natural produce is available including, milk, cheese, vegetables, salads, meats and wine. The locals are very friendly and welcoming and many speak English. The company Istra Zivot is run by an English couple who live here permanently. They have fallen in love with the life and people and wish to show you just how wonderful the region is. Pula, Porec, Rovinj, Rabac are all just a short drive away and you'll soon realise how central we are to all the best tourist sights.

5 out of 5

Istria

Cider apple Herefordshire
Review Submitted: October 14, 2009 Date of Stay: September 2009
We could not have had a warmer welcome from the family owning this apartment; almost daily gifts were left for us: wine (from their own grapes), honey (from family beehives), fresh mushrooms, cherries in alcohol. We felt more as if we were visiting friends than renting an appartment.
The rooms, although fairly basic, are spacious and spotlessly clean and there was constant hot water and an open fire (which we didn't need) in the living area.
Barban is a delightful, small village with shops, although in October some were not open every day however the supermarket opened from early morning until 9pm and most foodstuffs etc could be bought there. It took 20 mins in the car to reach a series of beautiful secluded rocky coves where we swam and many of the historic towns and sites of Istria were within an hour or so from Barban. For those who like walking, swimming and old towns and villages, the appartment is ideally situated.
The tiny streets leading to the appartment were very narrow so a minibus or van might have problems reaching it but the main square of Barban is only a couple of minutes walk away and has plenty of parking space.
This was our first visit to Croatia and we would certainly visit again: stunning countryside, lovely people, and a delightful place to stay.
Owner's Response: We are pleased that these guests enjoyed their time in our apartment and their holiday in Istria. We have found that the apartment owners are always this generous and friendly and can recommend them at all times.
