The country estate "Marića Gaj" is located near to the city Grude in western Hercegovina. It has manor dating back from 1930ies which has been modernised and now serves as a pension. The farm is run by a local family that really puts focus on ecological farming. On the premises is a huge (40 hectare) karst forest through which paths lead to archeological sites (illyric & catholic graves).
There are donkeys, a horse, pigs, chicken, cats and dogs. The owners Zdravka and Tomo make their own wine (red & white), different types of rakija and of course jams, bread, olive oil... you name it.
The place is great for children of nearly all age. There are two playgrounds with swings and slides and they plan to replace them by larger ones next year.
The house is set back from the road, thus kids can roam around without constant supervision. The rooms have AC/heating and open WiFi.
From there it's about an hour ride to the coast near Makarska. From Sarajevo it takes approx. 3 hours to reach Marica Gaj.
