An excellent choice

Regardless of whether you are for a snack or a full meal, only 10 m from our holiday home is the farm tourism "KANTINA ROMANO", which is open on Saturdays and Sundays and offers a selection of home-prepared dishes. The housewife carefully prepares a menu with fresh, healthy and, above all, local ingredients, which meets many dietary requirements. But if you're not hungry, you can also visit them just for a chat over a glass of homemade drink and who knows, maybe you'll try one of their house specialties?

Cycling

Our place is an excellent starting point for professional or amateur cycling. There are many cycling routes to choose from, from more challenging to easier routes. The roads connecting the Istrian villages are less busy and suitable for younger cyclists as well. You can also drive to the coastal towns of Koper, Izola and Piran, just 15 km away, and cycle along the cycle paths along our Slovenian coast.

Hiking

For those who bet on a stable attitude, we recommend hikes in our wonderful nature, past vineyards and olive groves where it really smells like Istria.
Hiking trails are marked, and there are some for those who like to explore. You can take a walk in the valley of the Dragonja river or cross the Šavrin hills, all in our vicinity.

Istria & cuisine

Nobody could resist Mediterranean cuisine and Istrian cuisine. That is why you are here to experience this experience as well. There are many restaurants and guesthouses in the area, where you can taste authentic local dishes, including the real Istrian truffle and the top quality local wines Malvazijo and Refošk.

Let your taste buds also feel this cuisine, become a real Gourmet.
