We had a wonderful 10-day stay at this family-run campsite. Nestled in the peaceful, scenic hills of Istria, the only sounds you’ll hear are cacades, birdsong, wild deer, roosters, and buzzing insects.
The pitches are set among the trees, and you can choose from three types of accommodation: a family area, wild camping, or their fully equipped glamping tents.
We especially loved the outdoor kitchens — they have everything you need and are free for everyone to use, so there’s no need to bring all your own kitchen gear.
They also sell homegrown vegetables and other local products, which are definitely worth trying.
The campsite attracts lots of like-minded travelers, including young people and families. Dogs are welcome too.
There are plenty of great swimming spots nearby — just don’t forget your water shoes!
During our stay, we visited several nearby places of interest, including the larger cities of Ljubljana and Trieste, as well as the charming coastal towns of Piran and Izola, with their quaint streets, bars, and restaurants.
It’s a great region if you enjoy wine, olive oil, and truffles.
One of the highlights of our trip was visiting the Škocjan Caves — absolutely amazing and well worth doing...
Read moreNow this is the camping that you are always looking for but hardly ever find. It has an open area with a small playground for the families with kids, and a "wild part" with places for tents in the forest and the shade. Each side of the camp has it's own well equipped open kitchen wich you can use, a fire place and hammocks to relax in. The showers and toilets are clean and there is a refreshing shower outside, which is very welcome in the hot summer months. There is a limited amount of places so the camp is never crowded and the atmosphere is peaceful and quiet. The camp is run by a lovely family. They are always available for advice on what to do and where to go, or for just a friendly chat. They sell home-grown vedgetables, beers and wine and breakfast for a reasonable price. The beaches and beautiful towns of Piran and Koper are nearby, bit chances are you'll love the campsite so much you you...
Read moreGreat spot, about 30 minutes inland from all the beaches.
It has a family vibe and most of the other campers seemed to be really chilled.
The kitchen is not only a shared space but there are common plates and silverware for all guests to use. This results in pretty much everyone hanging out and cooking (and cleaning) together. It is really easy to make new friends here.
You can also hang out at the reception area and drink local (homemade?) Wine as well as purchase an assortment of vegetables grown directly from their garden.
The staff (family) really put in an effort to run that place as well as you can expect.
Big shutout to Luka and his wife. We will definitely come back if and when and would highly recommend to anyone looking for camping...
