⭐ Beautiful holiday villa for groups ⭐
Short description of the accommodation:
Spacious and secluded holiday villa for up to 22 people in the heart of Istria. Suitable for families, large groups, dog holidays, wheelchair accessible. Istria is in your hands.
Detailed description of the accommodation:
Holiday villa in the middle of the picturesque landscape of inland Istria. The house has enough space for several families or groups of friends who want to spend the vacation together. It is new and modernly furnished and the comprehensive facilities offer the comfort you need for your vacation. The ground floor houses a large kitchen, living room and 4 bedrooms, one of which is suitable for the disabled (wheelchair accessible, with an electric nursing bed if desired, which we provide free of charge). On the first floor there are 6 more double rooms and an additional single room. Each bedroom with bathroom (shower/toilet), one with a corner bathtub, offers pure luxury. On the beautifully landscaped and enclosed property, a 36sqm swimming pool with an outdoor shower invites you to cool off. There is also a large 5 sqm cooling cell available on the terrace so that you have enough space to cool your drinks and food. There is also a stone grill in the garden where you can prepare delicious dishes on the grill and enjoy them in a relaxing atmosphere and natural surroundings.
The house is a good starting point for trips to the well-known tourist destinations of Istria: Rabac, Pula, Rovinj and Porec. All of Istria can be explored within a 25-minute drive. Near the villa there are numerous family farms and households offering authentic dishes and experiences.
We invite you to come to Cere, a village whose church dates back to 1630, and enjoy nature and green Istria in the group holiday home Villa August, just 25 minutes from all coasts of the Istrian peninsula.
Detailed description of the location of the accommodation:
Almost every town and settlement in Istria has a long history and numerous monuments that testify to it. Istria's largest city, Pula, is so rich in historical sites and monuments, from the must-see Arena to the Arch of Sergius, Temple of Augustus, Nezakci, catacombs and fortification system. But don't stop in Pula. Visit Monkodonja near Rovinj, the Euphrasian Basilica in Poreč, the Danse Macabre in Berm or medieval castles and fortresses in Dvigrad, Svetvinčent, Pazin, Pula, Momjan, Buzet…
If you're interested in more history, follow the trail of dinosaurs through Cape Kamenjak, Barbariga and Bale. And let this encourage you to explore other natural beauties of Istria. Visit the Brijune National Park or the Učka Nature Park. Climb the Ćićarija or take a look into the Baredine Cave… The famous peculiarity of Istria is precisely that it combines two completely different tourist experiences in a relatively small area - coastal towns and the coast, known as Blue Istria, and the inland, Green Istria continental part.
The central location of this peninsula in the sense of this peaceful place for relaxing, hiking, cycling, walking, driving, horse riding, swimming and seclusion puts Istria within your grasp.

Ausreichend Platz, viele kleinere Mankos
Das Haus bietet ausreichend Zimmer für 22 Personen. Die Aufteilung hat uns gut gefallen. Ebenfalls ist zum gemeinsamen Beisammen sein sowohl in der Küche, im Wohnzimmer und auch draußen genügend Platz. In einigen Zimmern wurden die Duschen nicht richtig warm. Die Terrasse war recht voll mit Unkraut und der Pool nicht sauber. Die Poolboys kamen dann während unseres Aufenthaltes vorbei zur Inbetriebnahme. Dazu sei gesagt, dass wir im April da waren, also noch kurz vor Beginn der Hauptsaison.
Wir genossen den Aufenthalt in der Villa August sehr.
Die Lage der Villa ist perfekt für jegliche Ausflüge in Istrien.
Da wir bereits Mitte Mai, dort waren und zu dieser Zeit das Wetter noch nicht stabile ist, war die Lage ideal. Man konnte am gleichen Tag das Programm umstellen, da sich die Fahrzeiten gering hielten. Es ist wirklich alles wie in der Beschreibung erwähnt in meist unter einer Stunde erreichbar.
Die Nachbarn waren sehr nett und hilfsbereit.
