Our sweet Base in Primislje is in an awesome sunny location, surrounded by a scenic forest, hills, and mountains. We are the closest and most accessible company to the river, making us the best place to host your daily stay barbequing, cooking, playing table tennis, badminton, football, or be lazy in the shade with locals.
We are in a very remote area, only 15 to 30min driving to town so will be happy to recommend the best restaurants around, serving local food, as grilled fresh trout.
