Country house Silvana - the lost beauty
Croatia (Hrvatska), Istria
Best points about the property:
" House Silvana is situated in a small authetic Istrian village of Viskovici. Surrounded by nature and the silence of ruins and remains of traditional Istrian houses illustrates well how the village and life here developed through generations but always keeping harmony with nature, tradition and good life. House Silvana is a very old and tipically Istrian house, fully renewed in 2012 with the original ideas and love of the owners. Very stylish and comfortable, you can see it like a balance between an old fashion "cottage" style and modern minimalism, its hard to put it in any relevant style, so it is really a rare, lost beauty. Beautiful sunsets on the horizont, or just the morning coffee on the terrace overlooking the sea, in a mix of a bird song and scent of mediterranean herbs, you will fill your senses and find your peace. Visit the nearby ancient and medieval town of Labin which was built entirely of Istrian stones, still surrounded by city walls and see how the town has preserved its fascinating integrity. Enter then in one of the charming restaurant and ask for our traditional food, you will like it! If you want to have fun visit the pearl of Istria - Rabac - with many beautiful beaches, a charming lungo-mare, varieties of water sports, bars and restaurants. Tourist expeditions from there to Venice, Plitvice & Cres. Welcome to Istria! "

Hints and tips from the owner:
" Istria is the largest Croatian peninsula,unique and magnificent,around which the Adriatic Sea has deeply etched itself into the land,sprinkling its jagged coastline with a thousand lagoons and islands,and surrounded in the northeast by the Cicarija and Ucka mountains,Istria is prepared to reveal its thousand years of history to the chance traveler.Traces of human life in Istria date back to the prehistoric times.The first know inhabitants of Istria were the Histri,from whom Istria received its name.Numerous peoples and cultures,from Romantimes to today,have left evidence of their cultures in the architecture, wall painting and in the rich church architecture. Valuable monuments of religious and secular architecture have been preserved from all periods. Istria is spread over 2,820 square km,with great diversity,from its interior with its gorgeous towns which seem to have sprouted up on the tops of the hills,fertile fields,rocky mountains,to the coast pounded by the clear sea. The climate is a pleasant mediterranean one with mild winters and warm summers.The sea is good for swimming from May until the end of September.Each guest will be able to select something for himself from the rich cultural and entertainment offerings available and the many sports and recreational grounds and facilities will satisfy even the choosiest.The good road,sea and air links with Europe will enable a speedy and safe arrival to your destination.
