Built in 1757, this charming old farmhouse blends right in with its bucolic surroundings on the Istrian peninsula. Sitting in a hamlet, there are a couple of local restaurants within walking distance and the coastal towns of Vrsar and Poreč are a short drive away. Long, lazy lunches can be enjoyed by the poolside, thanks to a wood-fired stone grill and a porticoed terrace. It’s split between two separate villas, so the group can spread out between rustic-styled living rooms with farmhouse kitchens and bedrooms embracing the old world.
