Eco Home Montenegro

The cabin is within easy reach of the Bay of Kotor's Solila Nature Reserve, a protected wildlife haven home to some of Europe's most endangered bird species such as flamingos and cormorants. If you're up for a walk to the coast, the tiny ancient fishing village of Bigova is five kilometres away in a small sheltered bay bordered by rocky beaches and clear blue water. Wash the catch of the day down with a crisp chardonnay in one of its excellent seafood restaurants; there's also a nice little beach there if you fancy a dip to cool off. The city of Tivat and its luxurious Porto Montenegro marina, ritzy restaurants and swanky cocktail bars is 20 minutes' drive away. From here it's about 15 minutes by car from the fortified town of Kotor and its winding streets, medieval Old Town and maritime museum telling the story of the town's seafaring history. From Kotor, travel up the coast to the ancient town of Perast, for boats trip to the tiny islet of Sveti Đorđe, or travel south to the seaside citadel of Budva for sandy beaches, nightlife and more medieval sightseeing.
