Villa Millefoglie, a nature park retreat
About this space
Experience Istria from this lovingly renovated stone house located in the lush countryside, a short ride from the peninsula's attractions and hidden gems.
Villa Millefoglie is a restored 19th-century barn with a private pool and a garden, featuring an open-plan interior and a fireplace. It is located at the edge of a small village within the Učka Nature Park.
Updated in 2023 to reflect our hospitality, the house offers well-equipped, comfortable accommodation for a large group.
The space
The lush surroundings of this countryside property nourish and invite lounging by the swimming pool, getting creative at the outdoor grill station and indulging in alfresco dining on a shaded patio overlooking the unspoiled beauty of surrounding hills.
A generous open-plan combination of living and dining area features a fireplace and is attached to a fully equipped kitchen for those inspired to experiment with the region's gastronomy favourites, or simply love a home-cooked meal.
There is a bathroom with a shower and a utility/laundry room on the ground floor, while all three sleeping rooms are located on the loft, two of them with king beds and one with double single beds, and each comes with a private bathroom. The one in the master bedroom takes the wellness experience further with a built-in tub that offers a breathtaking view of the picturesque countryside.
Above the living room stretches a gallery with a library, a cosy reading nook and a board game area that will keep you entertained during long summer days, and winter nights.
Recent renovation in 2023 included a new solid oak kitchen with new appliances and dishes, new mattresses, linen and towels, a new set of deckchairs and umbrellas, along with some vintage furniture makeovers to preserve the character of this authentic Istria home.
Guest access
Though the property is not fully fenced you will have the entire house and the pool to yourselves. All the rooms in the house are at our guest's disposal, except the garage on the ground floor of the west wing.
Other things to note
Here are a few tips on getting around to help you plan your time at Villa Millefoglie. Filled with charming little hilltop towns and vibrant cities the peninsula's scenic roads will lead you from one place to the next, as you discover truffle forests, scenic coastlines, and secluded spaces along the way.
If you feel like soaking up the sea air, the nearest beach is only 25 km away, in Opatija. It is a charming 19 ct small city famous for preserving the legacy of a popular Austro-Hungarian summer vacation destination. The road will take you past the olive gardens, vineyards and prolific wilderness of the peninsula. Beautiful and well-known Send Beach Rabac is also nearby, about 35 km away from the house in the same direction.
Half an hour's drive away from the Vila you can find a ferry that will take you to the famous National Park Brijuni, consisting of a group of small islands which are now open to the public. They used to be Tito`s private residence so you can still have a true safari experience there, as he had animals brought from Africa that still roam the islands.
If you will be in the mood for up to an hour's drive through the backcountry, I suggest a day trip to Rovinj. It is a charming waterfront city rich with history and gastronomy, famous for colourful historic architecture and buzzing energy. I strongly suggest you also visit Hum, known as the smallest city in the world, only 3 km away, where you will find a delightful little tavern with a breathtaking view, my personal favourite. And make sure to visit Motovun, for its unique, irresistibly eclectic mixture of traditional and modern influences.
Even though Vila Millefoglie is surrounded by wilderness, the nearest shop is only a kilometre away, and there are at least 7, or 8 restaurants and taverns in the area of 5 km. Look for a tavern Danilea at the other end of our village, above mentioned tavern in Hum, also tavern Kolinasi in the nearby village Rim, or the one in tiny village Roc, also not far from the house. All homemade pasta kind of of places.
Note that there are many marked hiking and biking paths, trails and roads surrounding our village, all of which you will surely enjoy. Villa Millefoglie is situated within Nature Park Ucka, rich with water springs, cliff canyons and various vegetation, whose tallest peak, about 1400 meters high, can easily be climbed upon, but not without careful consideration and preparation.

Om værten
Din vært
Hi! I am Tanja, a mother of two who enjoys quiet time, preferably here, at Villa Millefoglie. When I am not walking, writing, photographing and painting, I am further elevating Villa Millefoglie to make your stay more meaningful. Turning what was once a ruin into a home began as a passion project by my in-laws and has grown into an adventure I share with my husband, Marin. We poured our love into the renovation and care of this unique home and continue to nurture it into a place of restoration and inspiration for ourselves and our guests alike – a haven to retreat, gather and celebrate life.
Derfor valgte værten dette overnatningssted
Located on the edge of a small village that stretches along a country road, well within the Učka Nature Park, Villa Millefoglie is perfect for those who crave the wilderness.
It is surrounded by quiet little roads and paths that will take you from vineyards and olive groves to mountain peaks or the sea, as well as around the wonderful rural households that spread across the peninsula. The neighbourhood takes particular pride in Hum, the smallest city in the world, and the delicious gastronomy in this truffle kingdom, with the nearby town of Buzet as its crown.
Although Villa Millefoglie is surrounded by lush countryside, the nearest shop is only a kilometre away, and there are at least 7 or 8 restaurants and taverns within 5 km. Look for the Danilea tavern at the other end of our village, the only tavern in the aforementioned Hum, the Kolinasi tavern in the nearby village of Rim, or the one in the small village of Roč, also not far from the house.
Please also note that there are many marked walking and cycling paths, tracks and roads surrounding our village, which you are sure to enjoy.
The nearest airport is 35 km away in Rijeka, and the nearest beach is only 20 km away, in Ičići.

This century-old Istria home nestled within a nature park is your invitation to pause and celebrate life.
Originally built in the early 1900s´ as a barn with a living area above it, the house was a ruin when our family fell in love with it and chose to bring her spirit back to life. Eager to make it our home away from home we began renovation in the early 2000s´ and shortly, where trees were growing from dirt up through the wall shafts and vast open ceiling - there came tiles, windows, and a roof. In the years that followed we slowly furnished the house mainly with family heirloom furniture, adding to its comfort with some new pieces and vintage details, considerate of the lived-in feel of the home we felt deeply present and were determined to preserve.
As you walk through the front door you are overflown with nostalgia and instantly taken away to another time and place. We are sure if these walls could talk, they’d tell many captivating tales, but we find that even so they easily awake the imagination and encourage daydreaming. As our days of leisure in it lined up, we realized that we had to preserve its magic, so we decided to share it with our guests to provide funds for its maintenance.
The pristine beauty of the surrounding nature and the garden itself, particularly the wild vine and wisteria climbing up the facade inspired the name Millefoglie which translates from Italian to a thousand leaves. It is our way of honouring the layers of her rich history, luxuriant environment, and loving efforts of restoration and care that all play together in creating her, in our eyes, irresistible appeal.
