We really enjoyed our stay at the wonderful old farm house in central Istria. The location was great for exploring the Istrian peninsula. We loved relaxing and cooking by the pool in the afternoon and eating in the outdoor eating area. Alenka was a great host. Overall a wonderful property for people wanting to be off the beaten path and have room to stretch out.
Beatiful garden and nice clean pool.
Very supportive host.
Nice location, next to small shop (fantastic bread) and small villages (good training of running;)
House was not hot inside even in the hottest days

Wonderful place
We spent a wonderful time in this house. Alenka has been wonderful and very helpful before, during and after our stay there. The house is absolutely beautiful. We stayed there with 4 adults and 2 children. Every sleeping room has a good size and you will find anything you need in the kitchen. There is a little market on the other side of the street. The pool is great and we had a little kitty visiting as for some days. Hopefully the next guests will like her as much as we did. We can absolutely recommend this place!
We spent two weeks here and enjoyed the surrounding area and extensive outside space, including the different furniture areas and beautifully clean pool. The house was spotless and has retained many of its original features. Alenka was a very attentive host and always available to respond to any queries we had. We visited many places including Porec, Rovinj, Pula, Opatija, Brsec and Labin. The local pizza restaurant in Zminj is fantastic - very reasonably priced. Also worth a visit is Beram and it’s fantastic restaurant at the top of the hill! A fabulous area to explore, great roads for driving and many courteous local drivers! Very handy to have a little shop so close for bread etc. Thank you, Alenka, for making us so welcome!
Wir haben unseren Aufenthalt sehr genossen! Absoluter Pluspunkt ist der schöne, große Pool mit vielen Liegemöglichkeiten und der riesige Garten, der komplett eingezäunt ist - mit kleinen Kindern also super! Das Haus und die Einrichtung ist sehr alt, aber funktional. Es hat trotzdem seinen Charme und man fühlt sich wie im Urlaub bei Oma damals :) Vor allem der Garten ist schön angelegt, innen fehlt es etwas an Gemütlichkeit. Die Lage ist sehr abgelegen, zu Fuß kann man nur zum Supermarkt gegenüber, der hat aber alles was man braucht! Mit dem Auto ist man in 40 Min. in Rovinj und in 20 Minuten in Rabac am Strand!
Genau so wie beschrieben. Es hat an nichts gefehlt. Wunderschöner, großer, natürlicher Garten. Sehr schöner und gut temperierter Pool. Das Haus ist klein, aber fein. Alles vorhanden was man zum Leben braucht und vorallem sehr sauber! Trotz an der Straße gelegen, ist es absolut ruhig. Alenka ist eine superliebe und freundliche Gastgeberin, die bei Fragen und Wünschen jederzeit erreichbar war. Für uns und unsere zwei Hunde waren es zwei perfekte und erholsame Wochen! Kommen gerne wieder! Und vielen Dank nochmal an Alenka!!
Liebe Grüße, Armin + Romana mit Akiro und Lucky
Das Anwesen war sehr gepflegt und weitläufig, optimal für Familien mit Hund. Man kann Federball, Fußball etc. auf den großen Wiesen problemlos spielen. Die Sitzgruppe unter dem Walnussbaum ist auch an heißen Tagen ein schattiges Plätzchen. Den Grill gleich daneben haben wir abends auch für ein Feuer genutzt.
Im Laden gegenüber {so klein er auch ist} gibt es alles was man braucht.
Der Empfang und die Verabschiedung durch Alenka waren sehr herzlich.
Wir haben unseren Urlaub sehr genossen und sind entspannt und voller positiver Erinnerungen nach Hause gekommen.

Schönens ruhiges entspanntes Anwesen
Wir waren zwei Familien, vier Erwachsene und drei Kinder und hatten eine sehr schöne Woche. Die Villa ist ein altes schön renoviertes uriges Haus in einer sehr ruhigen Lage, geräumige Zimmer und augestatten mit allem was man braucht. Der Pool war das Highlight - zu jeder Tageszeit. Der Garten ist riesig und für so einige Spielarten geeignet.
Sehr vorteilhaft - der kleine Laden gegenüber, hat zwar etwas gedauert bis sie kapiert haben das wir Brötchen haben wollten - aber das Brot war auch ganz OK. Die Vermieterin Alenka ist sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit. Wir haben uns sehr wohlgefühlt und würden jederzeit wieder hin fahren.

Einfach wunderbar!!
Das Grundstück ist riesengroß und mit mehreren Sitzmöglichkeiten ausgestattet, sodass man auch in geteilten Grüppchen oder einzeln unabhängig voneinander was machen kann, ohne sich gegenseitig zu stören, oder in die Quere zu kommen... also im Pool toben, auf der Wiese Badminton spielen, unter den Bäumen enspannen, etc.
Das Haus ist sehr gemütlich eingerichtet und mit allen notwendlichen Dingen ausgestattet. Wir haben uns sehr wohlgefühlt und absolut nichts vermisst.
Sowohl das Grundstück wie auch das Haus sind sehr sauber!!!
Die Besitzerin war sehr freudlich und hilfsbereit. Sie empfiehl uns schöne Strände und gab Tipps für die Ausflüge.
Wir sind vollkommen zufrieden. Die Unterkunft ist sehr empfehlenswert.

Nice villa with great garden
Huge garden with several sitting areas. Nice pool with shower. Great location for visiting all parts of Istria.
Three big bedrooms and two baths. Old house stayed cool on hot days (30+C) and did not require air conditioning in our opinion. Only kitchen for sitting together indoors though.
Great service from owner and her parents. Really enhoyable stay with wife and three kids between 8 and 13.

gut modernisiertes altes Haus mit viel Charme und
Wir haben eine sehr schöne Zeit in Villa Angelina verbracht, auch unser Hund hatte sehr viel Spaß, da er den ganzen großen Garten erkunden konnte !
Die Vermieterin ist sehr aufmerksam und hat uns auch mit einigen guten Tips zur Umgebung geholfen. Der kleine Laden gegenüber ist super, um Frühstück, frische Produkte aus der Nachbarschaft, und alles was man sonst so vergessen hat , einzukaufen.
Besonders die ruhigen Abendstunden am großen Tisch, miit Essen und Spielen waren sehr erholsam nach den Erlebnissen am Strand oder den Orten der Umgebung. Durch die zentrale Lage in der Mitte Istriens haben wir Ausflüge in alle Richtungen machen können und dabei auch tolle Aussichten auf Meer und Berge gehabt.
Im Haus war alles sehr sauber, und alles was man braucht vorhanden, W-Lan hat gut funktioniert. Außerdem war alles so wie es auf den Fotos dargestellt war. Wir kommen gerne wieder!
