Gorica Estate, Dubrovnik, Croatia

Just a few kilometres south of the breathtaking City of Dubrovnik you turn off the coastal road and follow a tree lined driveway up into the Gorica Estate. This beautiful secluded retreat is still in the hands of the family who have owned it for centuries, and their devotion to Gorica is clear from the beautiful renovation that has been undertaken to this historic property. Tucked away in 20,000 sq metres of land and gardens, yet just a short walk to shops, restaurants and the beach, staying at Gorica you have the option to visit Dubrovnik itself or the local charming seaside village of Mlini, both just a very short drive away. In addition to very comfortable accommodation for 10 people in 5 generous double bedroom suites, and gracious living rooms, Gorica offers a host of outdoor facilities including the gated pool area, formal gardens, a charming tree shaded courtyard for outdoor dining and barbecue, children's play area,  basketball court and natural garden areas, an orchard to explore, and even the family wine cellar which guests can request to take a look around if they wish, also the family chapel which is under restoration. The family have their own house in the grounds so are on hand if you need any assistance and are totally charming but all the outside areas are for our guests sole use.
