We came for only a brief visit (unfortunately), but despite the fact of spending only less 24hrs at their place we feel like we left as friends. Family are wonderful people which make you feel most welcome from the moment you step into their home.
The cottage itself is extremely cozy and amazingly arranged with common area on the ground floor, sleeping room upstairs and toilette detached on the side of the house. Location of Kralje village is perfect… with Bjelasica mountain, Prokletije NP and Komovi mountains all just 30min easy drive from the village.
Food is amazing and genuinely local and homemade.
There is no doubt we will be back!
It was amazing place. Beautiful mountain view, Room with singles beds upstairs, dinning room, toilet and shower downstairs. Friendly atmosphere. Host helpful and cheerful. Very healthy and natural food, very tasty. We spent there 2 nights and we really enjoyed the time. We highly recommend the cottage. Peaceful place.
The location is super beautiful. The people do everything possible to make you feel at home with wonderful food and a very friendly atmosphere. Both breakfast and diners are available. This is really how you want your mountain holidays in Montenegro to be. Only a short drive away from Prokletije National Park, which you can have all for yourself.
Looking for a gem in the Montenegro mountains? This is it… Seriously. Absolutely fantastic location, pretty much halfway between Prokletije and Komovi, yet, close to so many other the “locals only” peaks.
The cabin is pretty much perfect for a group of 4. Typical cozy A frame, stone and wood cabin that has a fabulous view down the valley. The owners have live stock, so don’t be surprised by some wandering cows… (Their milk, yoghurt and cheese tastes like nothing you can find at a grocery store!)
There is a small and cozy restaurant downstairs with an equally cozy small patio. Cooking is traditional Montenegrin cusine, and it is simply divine…
Igor, the proprietor, is a local mountain guide, and his knowledge about the local area is simply put – next to none other. He will give you pretty much any info about the local trails, peaks, access points and any other info you may need. (He may even offer you his personal climbing gear if you are really adventurous and you didn’t bring yours… shhhhh 🙂
Can’t think of anything… We were there for three days and it was pretty much the highlight of our mountain portion of the trip.
