Sitting on a secluded hillside overlooking Istria’s east coast, Calussovos as charming as they come. Over 300 years old, it’s been lovingly renovated with all the comforts of home. But you’ll still find all its traditional features intact. It’s all exposed stone walls. Original tiled floors. And wood-beamed ceilings. You’ll be given the warmest of welcomes by the family who own and run this relaxing retreat. After you’ve settled into your restful bedroom with its whitewashed walls, stylish furnishings and satellite television, head for the spacious grounds. Surrounded by manicured lawns, which are peppered with swishing trees, there are plenty of sun loungers dotted about for sunbathing. Or set off on a stroll through the countryside and soak up the gorgeous views of the rolling hills and the twinkling Adriatic Sea. If you want to explore the local area, there’s plenty on your doorstep. It’s just a five minute drive down to picturesque Rabac where you’ll find little boutiques, authentic restaurants and a pretty pebble beach. And you’re also within easy reach of top sights like Plitvice Lakes and Ucka National Park. However you spend your days, make your top after dark priority the Calussovo’s attractive restaurant. Here, you can tuck into typical Istrian specialties, all from family recipes. And summer, you can dine out on the al fresco terrace which overlooks the evergreen hills. You’re even welcome to visit the kitchen where you can learn about the cuisine from this corner of Croatia. Warm. Romantic. And tranquil. The Calussovo is as good as gets.
