About this property
Casa Stella a fully renovated old stone house in the middle of Istria
Draguć is the best known small town in the Municipality of Cerovlje. Thanks to its picturesque look and preserved architecture, it often "plays" in domestic and foreign films and TV shows, being known as the "Istrian Hollywood". Still, Draguć is not just a coulisse. The supreme vivid frescoes in the adorned churches along with their sacred treasure are the target of the curious tourists, while the cosy accommodation gives You the opportunity to have the main role in this silence-prevailing surrounding. It is also known for its valuable frescoes in the church of St. Elisha and in the church of St. Rochus, the collection of sacral artworks in the Church of the Blessed Virgin Mary of the Holy Rosary, for the altarpiece by painter Venerio Trevisan in the parish church of Holy Cross, as well as for the area’s rich Glagolitic heritage.
In the village Draguc you can find the House of frescos which serves for conferences, exhibitions and tourist information point which helps visitors to bring closer cultural aspect of life in Draguć and touristical offer - churches with medieval frescoes are very special.
There is a restaurant and coffee bar named Ladonja, so you can go and grab a coffee or get something to eat without starting your car.
Casa Stella is located in the heart of the small and peaceful village of Draguc. It has been in our family for almost 100 years and fully renovated in the 2023. The Tourist board of central Istria awarded 4 **** for this accommodation as it has all that is required for a pleasant stay.

If needed in the living room there is a sofa which can accommodate 2 more person, in total maximum 6 person per stay. The kitchen is fully equipped with everything you will need on your vacation.

About the host
Hosted by Marina Visnjic
Hello, we are Marina & Željko. We are a married couple in retirement and together with the help of our daughter Cristina are renting Casa Stella. We like to meet and greet new people, so if you need any information dont hesitate to contact us.
Why they chose this property
Draguc is Marina´s grandmother hometown and Casa Stella has been in our family for almost a 100 years. Two years ago we were looking at our old house and decided to renovate it completely. We wanted to preserve the original Istrian appearance of the house and we tried to breathe new life into old furniture and combine traditional and modern.
