Elegant country villa near medieval hilltop towns

The exposed stone walls, pretty shutters and a cosy veranda with a built in barbecue, al fresco dining and lounge area offer a delightful first impression, while the interior more than lives up to its billing. Exquisitely designed throughout with a mix of high quality modern and vintage furnishings, eye-catching lighting and large French windows keeping the rooms particularly light and airy, the house has a warm, relaxing feeling encompassing both traditional and modern tastes. Dominating the ground floor is a beautiful, elongated room divided into living, dining and cooking areas with an elegantly designed fireplace and a comfy sofa to sink into and exchange stories of the day’s activities. One of the four exquisitely furnished bedrooms is situated on the ground floor, while the other three are distributed over the upper floor, all benefiting from having a flat screen TV and a beautifully appointed en suite bathroom. There is a pretty balcony on the first floor as well from where you can savour the fabulous views across the countryside. Villa Mia comes highly recommended not only as a base for discovering Istria's indisputable charms, but also for families looking to have fun and unwind in luxurious surroundings.
