Hearth, terrace & experiences
The hearth, a terrace under century-old oaks and days to remember
The best part of a stay often happens at the table: peka from the hearth, dinner in the shade of the oaks and stories late into the night. And when you want more, there is the sea, the boat and the Zrmanja.
Our konoba
The hearth, peka and a table for everyone
The heart of the grounds is a stone hearth under the oaks. This is where Dalmatia’s best-known dish is made: veal or lamb under the peka, an iron lid covered in embers, cooked slowly until it falls apart. Add grilled fish with home-made olive oil or a mixed grill for real meat lovers.
There is a second hearth inside, next to the dining table, for cooler evenings. On request, the host cooks traditional dishes – tell us in your inquiry how many of you there are and what you would like.
- Veal or lamb under the peka
- Fresh grilled fish
- Mixed grill
- Home-made travarica, olive oil and dried figs
Terrace
A spacious terrace under century-old oaks
The oaks here are older than the house and give shade all day. Beneath them is a stone terrace with a large table, the place for long breakfasts and dinners that end under the stars.
Three hammocks hang between the trees, and the pool is in the sun a few steps away. In the evening the garden lighting comes on with a timer.
- Shade all day, even in August
- A large table on the stone terrace
- Three hammocks between the trees
- Hearth and grill close at hand
Sea & boat
By boat on the Novigrad Sea and to the Zrmanja canyon
The Novigrad Sea is a calm, enclosed sea beneath Velebit. On request we arrange boat or speedboat trips across the sea and up to where the Zrmanja enters its canyon, with high cliffs on both sides.
For more adrenaline, rafting and kayaking are on offer on the Zrmanja itself.
- Speedboat or boat on request
- The Novigrad Sea and the Zrmanja estuary
- Swimming in hidden coves
