Found in a small village just below the Cetina River, this boxy white home sits in striking contrast to the rural surroundings. Still, it offers plenty of ways to enjoy the tranquillity of the local area. During the warmer months, many a happy hour is sure to be passed in the swimming pool and on the surrounding loungers, while there's also a hot tub and summer kitchen complete with a barbecue that will both come into their own once the sun begins to set. There's plenty to appeal to all types of guests inside the home's four walls, too. On the one hand, you've got a pool table and darts board in the games room, while you'll also find a large corner bathtub if you simply want to switch off and relax. There are also three balconies from which to enjoy a quiet moment and admire the local countryside. When it comes to days out in the local area, the seaside town of Omiš is only twenty minutes' drive away and offers a beach as well as opportunities for watersports or outdoor activities. The city of Split is an hour's drive up the coastline and is well worth a visit for its old... town alone.

About Split
With its ramshackle buildings of terracotta roofs, green shutters and sun-bleached stone, the old heart of Split could rival Dubrovnik’s. Diocletian’s Palace dates back to 305 AD and is a meandering old centre of narrow alleys, crumbling columns and pavements worn sleek over time, and it is very much still the buzzing soul of Split. The surrounding Venetian-style streets date back to the days of spice merchants and sailors, and...

Host
This home is managed by Oliver
This home is managed directly by a business. A member of their staff will be your point of contact before and during your stay. Nearly twenty years ago, Oliver and his friend began curating the world's most unique and rustic getaways. Driven by their own unforgettable experience at a chateau, they have grown remarkably since then. Much like Plum, they believe in hand-picked luxury that doesn't break the bank.
This home is nominated for the Plum Guide Award.
