Cosy and homely, yet refined and rather special, Villa Sancta Maria Motovun has a boho-chic vibe, which we loved. It's set in big private gardens, planted with palms, lemon trees, oleander, azalea and fragrant lavender bushes (all beautifully lit at night), and there's a turquoise pool off to one side, plus an organic vegetable garden where you can pick your own produce.
Other facilities include bicycles, a small playground, outdoor gym equipment and a sports pitch with flood-lighting. Behind Villa Sancta Maria Motovun, overgrown woodland is slowly being cleared and replanted with olive groves - the region is noted for its excellent olive oil and fine wines, as well as seasonal delicacies such as white truffles and wild asparagus, all of which you must try while you stay
