In the fifteenth century, a Croatian noble thought this site would make a nice spot for his holiday home. Hundreds of years later, we can’t help but agree. This home has been restored lovingly (and carefully - due to its historical significance, the Croatian National Heritage got involved) which means that amongst the modernity of the glass bridge joining the two terraces you’ll find ancient features such as the grand stone staircase and a private chapel on the grounds. Just a ten minute drive from the beauty and bustle Dubrovnik, and moments away from the beaches that line the Croatian Riviera, it’s easy to see why nobility chose this home as their summer refuge.

Home truths
Because this is a historic property, the wifi can be a bit temperamental; take a few days break from the devices and enjoy the pool instead
The home is child friendly, but as it’s set out over several levels and some of the old staircases can be very steep, we suggest keeping an eye on younger kids

About Dubrovnik
Wandering the time-worn stone streets of Dubrovnik’s walled Old Town, you can see why location scouts chose it as the backdrop for epic fantasy series and films. Narrow alleyways remain unchanged for centuries, save for intimate wine bars and gourmet restaurants moving into former armouries, grain stores and monasteries.

Host
This home is managed by Oliver
This home is managed directly by a business. A member of their staff will be your point of contact before and during your stay. Nearly twenty years ago, Oliver and his friend began curating the world's most unique and rustic getaways. Driven by their own unforgettable experience at a chateau, they have grown remarkably since then. Much like Plum, they believe in hand-picked luxury that doesn't break the bank.
This home is nominated for the Plum Guide Award.
