The barbeque has a lot of place to prepare the dinner and it is placed close to an unique garden table made of a big stone plate with heavy iron chairs around. The villa is built with large stone blocks and contains large open space in the ground floor and three double bedrooms on the first floor. All the rooms upstairs have the air-condition but usually it is not needed due to the wide solid stone walls. The guests liked as well the location as the villa is on easy reach to all points of interest when exploring the Istria.
