Villa Vistara With Pool, Butkovići, Croatia

Unwind at a modern countryside retreat in the Istrian hamlet of Butkovići, where a private pool and views over a small forest set the tone for a slow, easy family escape, with three en suite bedrooms comfortably sleeping up to 6. This 2-storey house is 180m² and includes a bright, open-plan living and dining area, furnished with contemporary blue upholstered seating and kept comfortable with air conditioning. The adjoining sleek kitchen-diner is equipped with a coffee machine, dishwasher, oven, induction hob, electric kettle, microwave and toaster, ideal for family meals together.

Outside, the house sits amid the greenery of the Istrian countryside, opening onto a fenced private garden and an unheated outdoor pool, perfect for cooling off after a day exploring. There are 4 sunloungers by the pool and 2 parasols. A terrace with an outdoor table and chairs set the scene for al fresco dining, with a gas barbecue on hand for evening cookouts.

Location
Butkovići itself is a quiet cluster of traditional houses, made for gentle countryside strolls, with Lake Butoniga within easy reach in the same corner of central Istria. The market town of Vodnjan, known for its olive oil and the Church of St Blaise, is about a 15-minute drive, while the Roman amphitheatre and old town of Pula are around 20 to 25 minutes away. The fishing village of Fažana, gateway to the Brijuni Islands national park by a short boat crossing, is roughly 25 minutes by car, and the Venetian old town of Rovinj is about 25 to 30 minutes\' drive. Pula Airport is around 30 minutes away. Public transport in this part of inland Istria is limited, so a car is recommended for getting around.
