“Glad I booked this place”

Amazing and welcoming host. Apartment looks better live then on the photos. It has a nice rustic looks with high ceilings, and feels very welcoming and warm. We had everything we could need in it. The coffee and tea selection was a nice touch. It's very close to the shuttle bus that goes to the top of Motovun or the walk path. A supermarket is across the street. We got suggestions for restaurants and places to go and, even for buying local truffles. I could spend hours looking at the view from the terrace on the vineyards and green hills.

“Barbara was an amazing host. Nothing was too much trouble. We loved our stay!”

Brilliant location, free parking, exceptionally clean!

“Was perfect”

Everything, great apartment, very well provisioned and a great location just at the bottom of the hill up to the town, so parking and a great view Most of all really friendly and helpful

“Nice place in Motovun”

Very spaceous and clean apartment. Very well equipped. Comfortable bed. Very nice terrace with a fantastic view. Super friendly host. Recomend this place if you want to explore Motovun and places around.

“The best apartment of the whole trip.”

Everything was super: A very hospitable hostess, a spacious apartment with all the necessary amenities, convenient parking near the house, a supermarket across the street, it’s hard to wish for any additional amenities.

“A most enjoyable three day stay with helpful host in the same building”

Comfortable, good for self catering, car parking available. Host's very good recommendations for local restaurants, wineries, and truffle shop. Clothes washer and drying line available. Walking distance to old town.

“Exceptional property with friendly host.”

From messaging about our arrival time to us leaving the propery the host was efficient and friendly. She could not do anything else to make our stay any better. We absolutely loved this apartment and it's location. This property is the best of any self catering apartment we have ever stayed in. Everything was exactly as described. All comforts are provided incuding a kitchen well stocked with equipment, dried goods such as spices,oils and coffee. We were overwhelmed by this thoughtfulness. There is a small supermarket just over the road from the property which will provide anything missing - bread, meat, cheese fresh vegetables. The beds were comfy, the outdoor patio and views from loungers or dining table beautiful. Fans in the property in case it gets hot. The property has a few books left by guests, a local map and info on local restaurants from the host. The parenzana cycle and walking track is just 5 mins walk away from here. The town is a 5 minute drive up the hill (paid parking but reasonable).

Best equipped apartment we've stayed in. Barbara very informative with excellent communication. On site parking. Great location for exploring Istria.

Very friendly host. Clean and spacious apartment with everything you need to enjoy your time and explore the area. Really appreciated the use of the laundry facilities.

“Wonderful stay in Motovun”

Barbara was a great host. The apartment was spacious and comfortable, the location was perfect, and we had everything we needed for a wonderful stay in beautiful Motovun.

“Great location in a spacious apartment”

A very spacious, comfortable apartment with wonderful views to the west from the large balcony. There is also a garden for guests to use. This was a good location for us as we could easily walk or cycle from the property. The "parenzana" walking and cycling trail is very close. There is a bus every 30 mins which goes to the top of the hill where all the restaurants are. There is a supermarket opposite the apartment which sells all the basics.

Great location at the base of Motovun to explore the town and for traveling around Istria. Supermarket is across the road and you can walk to winery's. We had the unit close to the road which is noisy during the day with traffic but quiet during the night. Kitchen is well equipped for cooking.

We were a group of 4 friends who rented both apartments in the house. The lower apartment has a spectacular terrace overlooking the valley, surrounded by a lovely garden - we all spent a lot of time there. The upper apartment has a small terrace that mainly overlooks the adjacent apartment building - so not much of a view. The owners were very friendly and helpful. The house is located at the bottom of the hill leading up to Motovun, amd parking is available.. There is a shuttle bus that goes up the hill to the old town in the daytime. We drove up in the evenings for dinner and had no problem finding parking near the entrance to the old town (but we were not there in high season). There is a supermarket opposite, which was handy, and several wineries in the vicinity. We all really enjoyed out time in Motovun.

The owner was super nice and told us about the best spots. The kitchen had everything you could need.

Barbara was a fantastic host, really helpful and cheerful. The place is like an old farm house. Very quaint and homely

Everything works fine for daily life. Feels like home.

Barbara was extremely helpful and communicative, helping us get reunited with our lost luggage and organizing bikes to rent. The apartment is larger than it appears in the photos, and the location really is perfect. Excellent views off the terrace, yet right across the street from the steps to the old town and from a grocery store. Overall an excellent stay.

The apartment had everything you could ever need on holiday. The outdoor areas were very relaxing. Plenty of private space. Supermarket and ATM opposite the accommodation very convenient. Parking onsite, large, and easy. Barbara speaks perfect English, understands travellers' needs, and is very obliging. The description of the apartment is a true representation. Great base for exploring the area. Highly recommend. We are return guests.

“We really enjoyed our stay, especially being able to relax in the garden.”

Spacious well equipped character property with a nice balcony to watch the sunset from. Garden delightful to sit in. Steps up to Motovun just across the road. Barbara is a wonderful host.

There were 6 of us in our travelling group and we stayed in two of Barbara's apartments for 4 nights. Barbara is a delightful host and she ensured our stay was comfortable and enjoyable. We explored much of the western coast and inland parts of Istria during our stay, Motovun and Barbara's apartments are an excellent base to enjoy the delights of the Istria peninsular
