Good food, fine wine and great company - Holidays in Brtonigla are a recipe for success!

‘Verteneglio’ is what the Italians call this peaceful town of Brtonigla. To the north-western part of Istria, in the beautiful Croatia, lies a village at an elevation of 141m. The major economic activities include farming and viniculture, but in recent times, tourism has increased in importance, no doubt due to the abundance of quality Brtonigla apartments. A colourful array of vegetables are also grown in these parts to complement the popular fish-based Croatian cuisine. The place was first mentioned in 1102 and was once close to a Roman settlement known as Ortus Niger. Brtonigla is a historic village and a percentage of the local people still refer to themselves as ‘ethnic Italians’. The natives are very hospitable and while interacting with them during your stay in one of our Brtonigla holiday homes you can learn the local dialect as well as enjoy their simple way of life.

Step back in time during your Brtonigla vacation and get to know Croatia's rich history.
