About Steve Lucas

British and married with 2 school kids now living near London. Enjoy travelling and outdoor activities. Accountant who has lived and worked worldwide (before kids!) and always wanted to own property away from the crowded wet UK close to enjoyable activities and attractions!

We fell in love with Montenegro in 2005/6, with its great coastal and mountain scenery, history and friendly people. We thought Zabljak/Durmitor had huge and unrealised potential with its high mountains, Black Lake plus many smaller lakes, breathtaking Tara Canyon only 20 minutes away, with rafting, skiing, walking and other outdoor activities. It still needs significant investment (spa’s, more/new ski lifts, etc) before the hordes will arrive, but there have been significant improvements already (excellent new road sections from coast to Zabljak finished, some new hotels, etc.). Meanwhile this area remains great for people who enjoy beautiful scenery and outdoor activities away from the crowds.

Steve Lucas purchased this chalet in 2006
Why Steve Lucas chose Zabljak / Durmitor

1. Great location: Easily accessible in summer and winter (next to regularly snowploughed road), with great mountain/rural views from the many windows and only 250 metres from the ski-lifts (handy in summer too!) and only about 3km from the Zabljak shops. Friendly neighbours including the caretaker family who look after it for us.

2. High Standard (now!): It is now much higher standard than most other chalets in the area since we’ve replaced all the insides except the floorboards!. It has: new roof; new insulation; new electrics; new double glazed windows; new wood panelling; new electrics and lights; new kitchen; new stairs/steps; renovated bathroom plus new bathroom & entranceway/front door; new electronics (flat screen TV, satellite, etc.); new wood burning stove/radiators; central heating; 3000L water tank; some new furniture; etc. Started renting recently to contribute towards the high bills!

What makes this chalet unique

Much better location and standard than most other chalets in the area: more spacious; great views from the many downstairs windows; accessible all year round; well equipped (flat screen TV, washing machine; etc.); great rural location near ski lifts yet only a few km from Zabljak shops and restaurants.

Liked your chalet

Submitted: December 31, 2012 Stayed: December 2011
"we are back at home now. We liked much staying in your chalet. Although there have been some problems with electriciry in the village. Ratko was very friendly and took us some candles. Thank you. Next time we'll surely choose your chalet"
Owner comment: Caretakers always helpful. Also, unlike most chalets in area, this has an emergency generator which is used on the rare occasions when power is off more than 15 minutes or so, and wood burning stove pump has battery back-up. Steve

A relaxing holiday

5 of 5
Submitted: October 13, 2011 Stayed: September 2011
We had a great time in this chalet. It is perfect to go to the Durmitor mountains. To peak Savin Kuk it is 1 1/2 hours and to Zabljak 30 minutes on foot or 5 Minutes by car. In the summer there's a cable car to get to the high mountains.
The chalet has plenty of space. It is fully equipped and situated in a quiet environment.
Thanks to the owner Steve. He answers all your questions promptly, if you contact him by mail.
Recommended for:  Adventure Seekers, Families with Teenagers
Owner's Response: Thanks for review. The chalet is spacious, well equipped and very well located (excellent mountain & rural views from the many downstairs windows) close to the mountains. and was completely renovated earlier this year.
I try to answer questions promptly and the local caretakers (speak English & Serbian) are very helpful with advice and information on local activities. Frank and other visitors typically walked (or mountain biked) a lot in and around Durmitor National Park and rafted on the Tara.
