Ruhiges gemütliches Haus mit Garten in Istrien fernab vom trubeligen Tourismus
Wir hatten eine sehr schöne Zeit im kleinen Steinhaus mit wunderschönen Garten. Wer Ruhe sucht und für sich sein will ist hier genau richtig. Die Kommunikation mit Anuska war per WhatsApp immer unkompliziert und freundlich. Ab und zu kam Grozdana (eine Bäuerin aus dem Dorf) vorbei und hat uns mit Obst, Gemüse, Wein und Olivenöl versorgt. Man kann schöne Buchten entdecken, im nahegelegenen Kletterpark Nervenkitzel erleben und ganz Istrien von hier aus entdecken. Allerdings ist ein Auto unablässig und auch genug Mückenspray ist dringend zu empfehlen. Die Moskitonetze für die Betten waren wirklich goldwert. Wir kommen gern wieder.

Wunderbares Sommerhaus
Geschmackvolles, traditionelles und atmosphärisches Steinhaus in friedlicher Landstimmung und alter Kulturlandschaft. Ein sehr schöner und gemütsvoller Ort für Menschen, die das Abseits suchen.

Host profile image
My husband and I live in Pula. We are both professionals in different fields. We renovated houses that are part of family heritage to our taste with much love and attention. At the end of the renovation process we fell in love with both houses even more. So finally, we came to idea we could welcome people at our House Parun and Villa Parun to let them experience peaceful living in central Istria. We hope our tenants will have a pleasure to relax and truly enjoy at Holiday houses Parun.
