Tucked away on the Istrian Peninsula, this home offers an authentic taste of rural Croatian living – but that doesn’t mean you have to miss out on luxuries like a home cinema and gym. Designed by popular architect Boris Ružić to be stylish yet functional, it’s a great holiday home for those travelling with children. They’ll love the playroom and trampoline – not to mention the private pool. One of Croatia’s oldest cities, Pula, is a thirty-minute drive away, where you can explore its Roman ruins and scratch that itch for city excitement.

Sitting among five acres of grounds in the heart of rural Istria, this marvellous address has stood on this idyllic site since the 19th century. Indeed, there's quite a rustic flavour to the interior what with all the wooden beams and exposed brickwork, but it's fair to say that quite a few changes have been made in the century or so since.

Some of these can be found outside, such as with the swimming pool surrounded by loungers and a dining table – thankfully, there's a pretty impressive outdoor kitchen out here as well so you really embrace the alfresco way of life. However, there are plenty of modern amenities to be found inside, including a games room complete with shuffleboard, darts board and PS5.

If you're more than happy to simply sit back and relax, you're spoilt for choice when it comes to spots to do just that. There are lovely views of the Croatian countryside to be had out on the terrace, but come evening time, you can gather around the fireplace or disappear off to one of the elegant freestanding bathtubs for an hour or two instead.

You don't have to spend very long at the address to find out how tranquil the location is, but if you're craving civilisation again at any point, there are a number of charming towns to discover nearby, like Groznjan and Porec, as well as the seaside at Novigrad.

Guests can enjoy exclusive services, excellent nearby restaurants, and the private beach only twelve minutes away. 

Palm Trees & Pines

You'll find this villa in the heart of Istria, just 2 kilometres from Novigrad. Whether you fancy days by the beach or afternoons exploring Old Town, there's something for everyone here. When you want to take it easy, there's plenty to keep you entertained back home, too. You'll make a beeline for the private swimming pool, which can be heated for a fee. There's also a sun-kissed roof terrace boasting a hot tub, sauna cabin, and countryside views. Inside, comfortable bedrooms all have access to terraces and en-suite shower rooms. Factor in the bright living space and we think it's the perfect pad for a family holiday.

This super sleek villa in the heart of the Istrian countryside is a huge family home and deluxe spa combined. Those that like to relax and unwind on a big group holiday will love the facilities here. First, the long swimming pool is perfect for swimming laps and is topped with a bubbling Jacuzzi. It’s an indoor pool, but a wall of glass sliding doors can be opened up to get that alfresco feel as you lounge poolside. The outside decking is lined with loungers and parasols for hot, sunny days and there’s dining set on a wooden deck in the middle of the perfect lawn. From here, the view is nothing but lush greenery and fields as far as the eye can see.

Heading inside, we love the floating staircase, like something from an interior design mag. The living area is bright and open, creating a social spot flooded with sunlight during the day. It’s here you’ll find the sleek black kitchen with its island and breakfast bar for plenty of prep space, and dining for the whole group at the wooden table. Should you want to keep on top of your fitness schedule, there’s a dedicated gym room and a sauna for afterwards. Bedrooms all open up to the outdoors from double sliding doors, so there’s no need to fight for the master.

In terms of location, you’re in the charming village of Jurici, and just a fifteen-minure drive from the shops and restaurants of Poreč town – a seafront haven of orange roofs and medieval houses.
