The house consists of a spacious bedroom with living room, kitchen, dining room and bathroom. The house is completely off-grid; for electricity we use solar energy,and for the water supply there is a Stone Well that collects the rainwater, for hot water supply we heat the water with wood-fired boiler. Next to the house is a technical room and a garden lounge in the shade 80 year old cherry tree. For barbecue there is a place in the traditional stone fireplace. Water is limited to 10 cubic meters, or 10,000 liters. Extra water is available at an additional cost.

Linus August 20, 2025 General rating:Very well furnished cottage, particularly suitable for families and couples and ideal if you like to cook, as the kitchen equipment is really great. The path is very steep and challenging for anyone with a fear of heights. It is very secluded, so it is best to go shopping beforehand and bear in mind that all excursions (except hiking) involve a car journey. In return, you are there for yourself and escape the tourist crowds on the coast.
Sehr gut eingerichtetes Häuschen, besonders für Familien und Paare geeignet und ideal, wenn man gerne kochen möchte, da die Küchenausstattung wirklich super ist.
Der Weg ist sehr steil und für alle mit Höhenangst herausfordernd. Es liegt sehr abgeschieden, sodass man am besten vorher einkaufen geht und bedenken muss, dass alle Ausflüge (außer wandern) mit einer Autofahrt verbunden sind.
Dafür ist man dort für sich und entkommt den Touristenmassen der Küste.Nature, peace & environment:The cottage is very secluded in the mountains with a fantastic view of the sea and the mountains and with a beautiful garden to enjoy nature and tranquillity.
Das Häuschen liegt sehr abgeschieden in den Bergen mit einer fantastischen Aussicht auf das Meer und das Gebirge und mit einem wunderschönen Garten, um die Natur und Ruhe zu genießen.

Rosanne July 21, 2025 General rating:The cottage was beautiful and equipped with many amenities. It was very clean and the welcome by Veronika and Nino was very warm! We also got all kinds of tips on what to do in the area and even had a tour of the city of Senj, very nice! The bed slept perfectly and there was plenty of bed linen and towels. The kitchen was equipped with all kinds of herbs, in addition to all cooking utensils. Because the house is off grid, you have to fire up the boiler every day to get hot water. If we were away for a whole day, this was not always convenient because it takes quite a bit of time. We will definitely remember the cottage!
Het huisje was prachtig en van vele gemakken voorzien. Het was erg schoon en het ontvangst door Veronika en Nino was erg hartelijk! We hebben ook allerlei tips gekregen wat te doen in de omgeving en zelfs een rondleiding gehad door de stad Senj, erg leuk!
Het bed sliep perfect en er was genoeg bedlinnen en handdoeken.
De keuken was voorzien van allerlei kruiden, naast alle kook benodigdheden.
Omdat het huis off grid is, moet je wel elke dag de boiler opstoken om warm water te krijgen. Als we een hele dag weg waren geweest, dan was dit niet altijd even handig omdat het best veel tijd kost. Dat vonden wij eigenlijk het enige nadeel.
We gaan het huisje zeker onthouden!Nature, peace & environment:The area is beautiful, full of nature, flowers and animals.Because it is on top of a mountain, it is very quiet.There is a lot of space around the house and we could sit there.We also took a beautiful walk of 16 km, even higher up the mountain, from Alan house. There are several hikes to do in the area.
De omgeving is prachtig, vol natuur, bloemetjes en beestjes.
Omdat het boven op een berg is, is het er erg stil.
Er is veel ruimte om het huis en we konden er heerlijk zitten.
Ook hebben we een prachtige wandeling van 16 km gemaakt, nog hoger op de berg, vanuit Alan house. Er zijn meerdere wandelingen te doen in de omgeving.This text is automatically translated. -
Denise August 25, 2024 General rating:You go up a narrow, though exciting road of 10 km into the mountains to the cottage. You encounter almost no cars or people. Really the feeling that the mountains are yours. You live among the animals. The owners are very nice, reliable, hospitable and thoughtful. They are not themselves present during the stay. The cottage is clean and everything is good for each other. This vacation is definitely to be repeated. It was for us a fantastic adventure vacation in the mountains.
Je gaat via een smal, wel spannend weggetje van 10 km omhoog de bergen in naar het huisje. Je komt bijna geen auto's of mensen tegen. Echt het gevoel dat de bergen van jou zijn.
Je leeft tussen de dieren.
De eigenaren zijn heel aardig, betrouwbaar, gastvrij en meedenkend.
Ze zijn zelf niet aanwezig tijdens het verblijf.
Het huisje is schoon en alles is goed voor elkaar.
Deze vakantie is zeker voor herhaling vatbaar. Het was voor ons een fantastisch avontuurlijke vakantie
in de bergen.Nature, peace & environment:Fantastic. We were there for 1 week. You have complete peace, privacy and amazingly beautiful nature.
Fantastisch. Wij waren daar 1 week. Je hebt volledige rust, privacy en geweldig mooie natuur.
