Location

Located in the village of Gruda on the edge of the Konavle valley, this area is ideal for those looking for a relaxing holiday near stunning countryside yet within driving distance to stunning Dubrovnik, a UNESCO World Heritage site.

In Gruda itself, within walking distance to the villa, you will find a bakery, mini-market, butchers, and a selection of restaurants and bars serving excellent local cuisine and wines.

You are on the edge of the beautiful Konavle valley where you are surrounded by forests of pines and cypresses, vineyards, olive groves and fruit orchards. There are small villages and tiny hamlets dotted around the region and two rivers, the Ljuta and Konavocica plus historically important watermills that have been preserved and are now open to visitors. It is an area that has retained its old traditions and customs, one example is ‘peka' where locals slow cook meat or fish and vegetables in a large pot in the embers of the fire. You will be able to find rustic restaurants across the region serving this Dalmatian delight. Look out for the local tipple made from herbs, honey and figs too.

The area is wonderful for walkers with many trails and horse-riding is possible both in the countryside and along coastal paths. You are sure to come across keen cyclists along the many trails popular in the region. Horse-lovers will love the riding opportunities within a few kilometres of the villa and there's also quad bike safari tours nearby.

There is a choice of beaches in the area including the pretty Pasjaca Beach (6km), hidden below the rocks in Popovici. Heading east you'll also find the beautiful beach in Molunat (12km) or in the other direction, the charming town of Cavtat (16km) has secluded coves and bays surrounding it as well as an old harbour and palm lined promenade to enjoy.

It is hard to believe that the bustling city of Dubrovnik is just 30km away. Dubrovnik is known to be one of the most beautiful cities in the world and is a UNESCO World Heritage site with good reason. Walk around the city's medieval walls dating back to the 13th century, discover the Baroque churches and palazzi in the pedestrianised city centre and dine well in one of the many upmarket restaurants specialising in local seafood. The cable car up to the top of Mount Srdj offers stunning views of the city, sea and islands and keen hikers can walk back down! From Dubrovnik port you can also discover one of the other islands in the Adriatic with a wide choice of boat excursions on offer plus there is a great range of watersports for all the family to enjoy.
