Villa Lovran
Istrian Peninsula - Lovran
We are thrilled to feature this enchanting villa. A cosy and beautiful Patrician House, oasis of serenity and relaxation built in stone at the end of 17th century. Originally captain's residence, the house is full of historical features. The house is located in Lovran, one of the oldest coastal settlements on the eastern shore of Istrian peninsula, 12 km away from Opatija. By the early Middle Ages it was an important urban and shipbuilding center of northern Adriatic. By the mid 19th century, the area gains prominence as it becomes a fashionable resort of Austro-Hungarian nobility, and the long tradition of tourism is strongly felt here. The region is rich with cultural and historical heritage. A parish church with medieval frescoes and Glagolitic inscriptions, and the 14th century tower of St George's Square within the old urban core, as well as rural ambiances and architectural edifices - namely turn-of-the-century villas with surrounding parks, are points of interest. For the lovers of long walks along the sea, the 'Lungo Mare' - a romantic sea-front promenade stretches from Lovran to Opatija, which you will reach in a couple of hours of relaxing walk. For the amateurs of hiking, nothing will beat a more physically demanding hike to Ucka mountain, which rises up to 1400m above Lovran.
