"Modern, contemporary two-storey small hotel situated in the middle of a celebrated working vineyard not far from Brtonigla. Easily accessible by motorway and less than an hour's drive away from a very quiet Pula airport. Only about 10 miles from the Slovenian border, and some rooms have Adriatic coastal views in the distance. No problems with parking as residents have their own area at the back of the property, although there are plenty of other informal spots around the building. We were impressed by the Cattunar's very attractive external design and there has clearly been lots of investment in the general architecture and public areas. The glass and bright marble tiling make it look constantly pristine. Only two sorts of room here; junior suites and deluxe suites. The former seemed sufficient for us but my first impression was that we should have gone bigger. Second impression was that storage space was very limited. Probably ok for a couple days but any longer than that and you needed to be very creative. We're pretty neat and tidy as a rule but here we had stuff in all sorts of unusual places, and more clothes on display than we would normally like. Upsides were that the bed was supremely comfortable, the room was perfectly soundproofed and the air-conditioning was quiet and efficient . No problems with the adjoining bathroom; plenty of space with ample storage on tops, in shelves and in a separate open cabinet. The capacious shower was wet room style with a rainforest head and easy to operate controls. The hairdryer was a grip- operated monster. The suite had a balcony with a great view overlooking the vineyard and right above where the grapes are bought in for pulping. Also within sight was the a recently installed wine-tasting platform which seemed quite popular with local groups at certain times of the day. Breakfast was taken in a dedicated light and airy room near the pool. Plenty of tables inside and even more outside on a patio near the pool. I thought they put on a pretty good buffet-style spread each day and made a concerted effort to change items on a daily basis. All the usual bread, fruit and cheese and meat items were in situ plus a host of interesting sweet and savoury options too. All hot drinks are made to order and there's no problem with refills. Some foodstuff items are left out for snacking during the day and, later, beers and spirits can be ordered and taken away as required. All rooms have minibars so it's easy to liberate a beer in the afternoon and enjoyed it well-chilled in the evening. The pool has a pleasant view overlooking the vineyards and there's plenty of good quality sunbeds, with mattresses, dotted around the garden area. No umbrellas, but ample natural shade from nearby olive trees whilst there is also a bespoke freestanding awning. The whole place is stewarded by two splendid hosts, Alessandro and Anya, who work on a one on/one off basis. Both very friendly and helpful and couldn't do en"

"Spend there 3 beautifull days. Sun, pool and peace, what more do you need. Perfect little butique hotel you will enjoy. Afternoons at pool they bring every guest plate of fresh fruits. Breakfast was so good. So much to choose from. We had a amazing dinner at their restaurant at hotel. They have the largest amount selections of wine. Room was nice, cozy and bed was great. Can't wait next year to come again. And our dog had a great time with us there."

"The house is great and very modern. The hot tub is very large. The summer kitchen is also great. The location is ideal for excursions as it is only 5 minutes from the motorway entrance. The house was now very well heated and warm for the winter. The landl"

"I do not normally leave reviews but I feel necessary given the service. We are currently staying here and it’s like living on the M6. The traffic doesn’t stop until gone 11pm and picks up again anytime from 4.30 / 05.30 am. I have tried to speak to the park staff about moving their response was to laugh and say the manager has resigned so no one can help. The receptionist gave me an escalation number which when I called he laughed as he had given me his own number, so disappointed to have to write this but any one thinking about it avoid"

"Cozy house, matches the pictures. Handing over the keys was easy, very nice landlady. There is a small supermarket nearby, and it is about 10 minutes by car to the center of Novigrad. We felt very comfortable"

"A very nice house that is also very well equipped. The pool and garden are also lovingly designed. We really enjoyed our vacation there!"
