These two recently completed 4 bedroom 2 storey villas are finished in Istrian stone and are on a small development located in a secluded rural setting. Each one has its own private pool. Access to the nearest town, Vodnjan is 5 minutes by car with a shop and cafebar located closer by in Jursici. Pula is the nearest city with its many sites of interest including the Amphitheatre which hosts the film festival in July and Opera in August, Temple of Augustus and historical museum of Istria. For the children there is an aquarium. Beaches can be found at Fazana or further along the coast. A trip to Rovinj which owes its survival to the contours of the land and sea with the old town confined to a small peninsula presided over by a hilltop cathedral is about 35 minutes by car, where you can also board a ferry to Venice. 10 kilometres from the villa is a golf driving range and work on a signature Jack Nicklaus golf course has been started along the coast.
