VILLA MARKO

Villa Marko is a beautiful traditional Istrian stone house built in 1757 and completely renovated in 2012. Villa Marko consists of two fully equipped houses connected with a covered terrace which together accommodate up to 8+2 persons. The houses consist of ground (connected kitchen and dining area, living area) and first floor (twin and double bedrooms). The outdoor area includes a private pool with sun lounges and solar shower, BBQ built in stone, covered terrace with furniture and uncovered parking place nearby the property.

Located on the western coast of Istria, in the small place called Kloštar, Villa Marko offers a peaceful holiday experience in a rural atmosphere. The nearest grocery store, bakery, ambulance, doctor, bank, fish market and beach can be found in Vrsar, 8,5 km away from the villa.

The house is placed at only 5 km distance from the famous Lim fjord. The Lim valley is the 35 km long valley of the river Pazinčica, which transforms into the Lim channel,a 10 kilometers long estuary. Estuaries and coastal waters are among the most productive ecosystems on Earth, providing ecological, economic, cultural, and aesthetic benefits. The estuary is sometimes called a fjord. The area around the channel has been inhabited since the Neolithic era. Ancient Illyrians then moved in and settled around the hill-fort of Gradina. Under the Romans, the channel formed the border between the administrative units of Porec and Pula. The name lim is derived from the Latin limes for border. According to legend, St Romuald, founder of a nearby monastery inhabited one of the ancient caves for several years in the 11th century. The 105m long St Romuald's cave is open for visits in the summer. Fishing in the Lim channel has always been excellent. Now the natural species have been augmented by farmed mussels and oysters which are on offer in two excellent restaurants on the channel.
