Authentic house in a peaceful village

Authentic Zagorje "hiža" (Kajkavian word for chalet, hut, house) in the small village of Selnica in the heart of Zagorje, close to the biggest Roman Marian church of Marija Bistrica. Surrounded by forest, the famous Zagorje hills. A peaceful retreat!
This wooden house is situated in the middle of a small idyllic village, surrounded by typical wooden houses. The interior is of rustic design with a fireplace in the middle of the big living room, which is connected with the kitchen on the ground floor. A staircase leads to the upper premises where you will find two bedrooms and a gallery.
The guests have access to all the house and yard, and to local domestic food (if wanted), fruits and vegetables can be picked in the yard and garden.

The guest will have their privacy but we will be available 24/7 for the needs of our guests.

Selnica is a rustic Zagorje village, with typical wooden houses for this part of Croatia. Our guests can experience close-by Marija Bistrica, the biggest Marian church in Croatia, Spas, castles, hills and the rural countryside of Zagorje.

Since the premises are pretty of the beaten track, access by car, parking in front of the house. On site you can use our bikes.

Guests will always have fresh eggs from our chickens in the village and organic herbal homemade teas.

The cottage is air-conditioned and features a kitchen and a balcony, and there's space to spread out with 2 bedrooms. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a fireplace, and a sofa bed.

Prettiest cottage in the country

Really liked this pretty cottage, even in the off season. Mia and her husband met us and showed us the wood stove for heat and welcomed us with a glass of local brandy and gave us plenty of information about the area. It is quiet, and the radio stations have more commercials than I like, so you may want bring music. Kitchen is well equipped but only a hot pot for water, so it's instant coffee unless you bring your own supplies. Eggs from the neighbor made a great breakfast after a walk over the hills. Great place to chill out.

Mooi vakantiehuis op bijzondere plek.

Konden het huisje in eerste instantie niet vinden. Ligt namelijk in een kleine buurtschap wat meer wegheeft van een autokerkhof. Eenmaal in de tuin blij verrast met wat we aantroffen. Karakteristieke woning met voldoende leefruimte en grote tuin. Kook- en douchegelegenheid ietwat behelpen. Airco in woonkamer. Niet in de slaapkamers (onder het schuine dak), waardoor met 30 graden lekker zweten. Marija Bistrica is klein en niet veel te doen. Voor uitstapjes even rijden in het prachtige landschap. Ondanks dat topvakantie gehad en zeker aan te bevelen.

Sehr freundliche Vermieter, uriges Haus in einem kleinen Dorf. Keine Beanstandungen!

Sehr empfehlenswert wenn man es ruhig und ohne Luxus liebt. Die Vermieterin und ihre Familie sind super nett. Das Haus ist sehr gemütlich und ruhig gelegen. Als wir ankamen war alles vorbereitet: eingeheizt, Betten überzogen und es gab einen Schnaps. Tolles WLAN, keine deutschen Kanäle. Ausstattung gut und es hat alles funktioniert. Wer Kaffee mag nimmt wie wir einen kleinen Kaffeeautomaten mit. Wir waren 4 Männer und haben Handball EM geschaut in Kroatien und die Woche sehr genossen. Hvala, Mia & family.
