Location:

Farmhouse Istria is spectacularly set on a hilltop overlooking the medieval fortress town of Motovun in the bucolic Mirna Valley. Touted by many as “The New Tuscany”, the villa is on the doorstep of some of Croatia’s best wineries, olive oil producers, truffle restaurants, agrotourism, biking and hiking trails. In Motovun (a 9-minute drive), there are shops, galleries, bars, and restaurants.

Despite the villa’s rural setting, there is ample opportunity for wining and dining close at hand. Wine lovers will be giddy to explore local wineries including Tomaz Winery (5-minute drive), Benvenuti Winery (6-minute drive), or Vinarija Matijašić (18-minute drive).

Croatia’s Adriatic coastline is deceptively close (30-minute drive), making daytrips to “blue Istria” an easy task. The coastline brims with colourful seaside villages such as Novigrad (35-minute drive) with its crescent-shaped pebble beach. Poreč (33-minute drive) is a beautiful seaside resort town boasting a Roman forum, Gothic palace, and the stunning Euphrasian Basilica – a pristine example of Early Byzantine architecture.

Take off into the surrounding valley to discover its many wonders by foot or bicycle, including the astounding Lake Butoniga (20-minute drive), Butoniga slap waterfall, and Waterfall Butori (25-minute drive).

Even closer to home, the medieval town of Grožnjan-Grisignana (35-minute drive) is a former 14th-century Venetian fortress turned quaint cobble-stone village. It is the hub of Istria’s thriving art and music scene today.
