The small house made of stone of granny Maria is located in the small carsic village of Podpeč, in the slovenian Istria. Built in the XV century under the Kraški rob and renewed in 2000.
In her three rooms there is enough space up to four persons, in a perfect environment for the lovers of beauty, nature and culture of our ancestors.
The quietness, the vegetation and the flowers surround this sleeping beauty.
Furnished with care in an old way (poor art) with handmade pieces coming from different places we love (Istria, Slovenia, Bosnia, Serbia, Sicily,...); the combination of modern and restored objects make it comfortable and nifty.
The big garden, equipped with chairs, table and sunbeds is perfect to enjoy a good meal or just relax.

    Podpec' house is a dream to stay, it is located between mountains and the sea. It is peaceful and cozy. The owners Neva and Alfio are amazing people: kind, supportive, easy to deal with.I hope I will have a chance to be back.

    The unique features and qualities of this beautiful, lovingly restored and furnished stone house have already been described very accurately on several comments. We would like to mention the special characteristics of the village of Podpec, to which Neva is deeply committed. A particular highlight is the story of the restoration of the medieval village church, to which Neva made a significant contribution. It's wonderful to see what personal dedication can achieve and how a village can reconnect with its roots through such efforts.Listening to Nevas stories and experiences made it easy to feel connected to that special place in Slovenia.Thank you very much, Neva and Alfio!

    We stayed in Podpec for circa two weeks and we can honestly say that it was one of the best experiences with a vacation rental we ever had. The place is a lovely, old stone house which has a lot of charme and everything you need, including a beautiful little garden. It's a perfect place for nature lovers. There is a lot to see in the surroundings from nature to culture. And our host Neva could recommend so many great places that we were barely able to them all! But everything we could do was a hit. Thank you for taking such good care of us! She also said best time to visit would be May/June. Something we'll keep in mind because we will surely be back.Kind regards from GermanyCarmen, Andreas, Florian and dog Alf!

    A Hidden Gem in Podpeč – An Unforgettable Stay!We had an absolutely wonderful time at this charming holiday home in Podpeč, Slovenia. The house itself is small but perfectly equipped, cozy, and beautifully maintained. The real highlight, however, was the stunning garden – a peaceful, green paradise where we spent countless relaxing hours.The surrounding area is truly inspiring, with breathtaking nature, scenic walks, and plenty of opportunities to explore the beauty of Slovenia off the beaten path.What made our stay truly exceptional was the incredible hospitality of our host. She welcomed us with a delicious homemade dinner upon arrival, provided us with countless insider tips for activities and places to visit, and even gave us a private tour of the historic local church – a truly special experience.This place is more than just a holiday home – it’s a place full of warmth, beauty, and personal touches that make it truly memorable.Highly, highly recommended!

    My wife and I travel often and we have never received a more warm and hospitable welcome than from Neva and her husband. The house is amazing, built in the 1500’s and nicely updated. The location is convenient to explore the area and in a small cute town high on a hill. We made new friends during our visit and it was one of the highlights of our trip. I highly recommend if you are looking for a central home base for a few days and would like to meet some wonderful people.
