Antigua granja de piedra restaurada con piscina privada - Ideal para familias

I am 60 and previously lived in London with my wife and two cats! We first came to Croatia in 2002 and in 2004 I spent six months here, getting to know the country and learning the language. As a consequence, we decided to buy a small house in a fishing village called Funtana on the west coast of Istria, where we have since spent many a happy summer. At the same time as buying the house in Funtana, we also decided to embark on a more ambitious project and purchased a derelict farmhouse in the countryside in a small hamlet called Baredine. We finished renovating the house in 2011 and in 2020 as a consequence of Brexit we decided to move to Croatia full time. We now rent the house out for the months of June, July and August at which point we travel around Croatia and the surrounding countryside before returning to the UK to catch up with friends and family. We have recently acquired two very sweet little additions to the family, the cats Mary and Mungo. They are permanent residents in Croatia and we hope you will enjoy their company during the summer. We would merely ask that you feed and water them during your stay., using the food we provide for them.

Baredine is ideally located, just 15 km from the coast and also minutes away from the delightful hill-top towns for which Istria is so renowned. It's a very peaceful hamlet but still a working hamlet, with local farmers close by and a small olive oil press next door. Numerous vineyards and olive tree groves surround the village and there are various local wine and olive oil routes you can follow by car. We have also discovered a number of excellent restaurants in neighbouring villages, where the food is locally sourced and more often than not home-grown/reared.
