Over 100 years old, this traditional, Istrian stone house nestles on the slopes of historic Kastelir. It has panoramic views of the coast below, especially from the 1st floor balcony.

On the ground floor there is a kitchen-diner, small double bedroom & bathroom with shower. On the 1st floor there is a large living room with stone fireplace & balcony. On the top floor there are 2 double bedrooms & bathroom with bath. Outside there is a small garden with a 6x3m2 pool, a covered dining area with a stone table & a sun terrace with sea views. Parking is private, at the start of the property & screened from the garden by wrought iron gates. Friendly Croatian neighbours. There is a restaurant a minute's walk away & others close by. There's also a mini-supermarket a short walk away. With its stone stairs & unfenced pool, this property is unsafe for toddlers & small children.

Lying on the hillside of sleepy Brnobici, the house has panoramic views of the Istrian coast. From Brnobici, it is a pleasant stroll through country lanes to the adjoining villages of Kastelir and Labinci. In the area there are plenty of locals selling their own wine, olive oil and rakija (grappa), as well as several shops for all your supplies, and several good restaurants. In one direction, historic Porec with its ancient Bascilica and the sea is only 10 minutes drive away. In another, it is only 10 minutes drive to the pretty town of Tar and the seaside complex at Lanterna. Other coastal towns such as Rovinj and Vrsar are an easy drive away, as are a whole host of beautiful inland hill-top towns and villages.

Great find

Londonescape london
Review Submitted: July 28, 2009 Date of Stay: July 2009
We were a group of 6 girls who had a great relaxing holiday. The house is stunning, much nicer than we expected which had everything we needed. Luckily for us the weather was great so we managed to have lots of Rose Wine on the terrace. Brnobici is a very sleepy village so if your after a wild time its not for you. We loved it and were delighted we didn’t hear another British voice.

Whilst we did BBQ in one night we generally ate out locally as its so easy. We definitely preferred the pizzas at Robis and the local restaurant about 8 minute stroll away, where the local food and atmosphere is stunning and you can sit out side and enjoy the evening (don’t forget the mozzi spray!), both of which are good value for money.

It is an ideal place for getting out and about, we really liked Motovun (we went late afternoon and had a lovely glass of wine overlooking the stunning landscape at sunset) and Rovinj. Driving is pretty easy and the roads are good. We also did a kayak trip from Rovinj up the lim Fiord that was fun, although don’t expect lots of help, information of guidance on your trip! (http://www.kayak.com.hr/TourLim.aspx). After all of that exertion we treated ourselves to some hog roast on the way home, a local must!

A fabulous house in a fabulous destination

Lovethatholiday Suffolk, UK
Review Submitted: June 8, 2009 Date of Stay: July 2008
Great facilities provided which met all requirements. The view from the top terrace is just amazing. We especially enjoyed BBQs and alfresco dining. The pool was refreshingly cool. Parking was quite a challenge, so we parked at Tonis and bought a few drinks! It was great to be within walking distance of 2 restaurants. Both offered friendly & efficient service and great value food. Istria has beautiful scenery with lots of old-world villages and gorgious coastal towns. Porec was far nicer than the Rough Guide had led us to expect – we liked it! Rovinj is a must see. All in all it was a wonderful 2 weeks.

Lovely in June

Review Submitted: May 30, 2009 Date of Stay: June 2008
Great place. Lovely sunny garden, great for flopping by the pool after a hard day sightseeing. The house was lovely with plenty of space for the 4 of us. Lots to see in Istria, the inland drives book was great and the villages gorgeous. Rovinj is a must. Having Toni's restaurant on our doorstep made us all very lazy and we didn't cook as much as we intended, but hey we were on holiday!
