BARABRITH
A vegan space in the hills of Croatia
Vegan Hotel in Croatia
GUESTS
Welcome to Barabrith’s website. This will be the portal from which we hope to inform and entertain you with the goings on and goonery that we get up to out here in the Croatian countryside.
Barabrith is home to two ageing punx (well, ok one is not so ageing!) Jon & Sanja, Jon escaped the Ugly Kingdom after the Brexit decision nailed the final straw in the camels coffin for him! Sanja spends as much time as she can here rather than in her native Belgrade!
The long term goal is to be as self sustainable as possible. We have already had a couple of good seasons of organic vegetables from our “garden”. We are currently planting new trees, fruit bushes and more vegetables in our ‘upper garden’ which used to be a corn field. There are about six hectares of woods and fields for us to play with, it is a long term project.
We now offer accommodation for paying visitors with vegan meals as an option. Please see our ‘Guests’ section for more information on staying here.
BARABRITH!?
Barabrith? Yes it is the name of a Welsh tea cake (actually spelt Bara Brith). That cake is one of the few specialities of my Dad’s cuisine. He helped me buy this place so I decided to name the house Barabrith in gratitude to my Dad.
GUESTS
Barabrith is open again! Still the only all vegan accommodation anywhere in Croatia! We are not on the coast but we are near Plitvica National Park and have a few places of interest close by. As ever there a few dates when we will be away so please email well in advance to avoid dissapointment.
Croatia has dropped all covid restrictions, and if you are an EU resident coming directly from an EU country you do not need to provide a Covid passport or PCR test. But please check with the authorities in case this changes.
Spring warning! Please note we live in the countryside and the wooden house that we use for guests does not have central heating or even wood stoves. There are electric heaters in each room but they can only do so much! The dinning room/pool room does have a wood burning stove and can been kept nice and warm but it might be the only guest room that is really toasty!
Barabrith offers a “surrounded by nature” countryside experience in the Kordun region of Croatia. We are situated about a kilometre off the main road from Zagreb to Plitvice National Park, an hours drive from the park. We have three rooms each with a double bed (one room is accessible through one of the others). We offer facilities to shower and to use the outdoor barbecue. Our space is vegan and so non vegan foods are not welcome anywhere on site. All our buildings are no smoking zones. We are happy to share our own meals with guests, for no extra cost, if you are around at the right time!
Facilities;
We have three rooms in an old wooden house each with a double bed. The larger room is accessible through one of the other rooms but seeing as its bigger and has an extra sofa bed in it (useful for quarrelling couples!) we charge the same of each room.
There is a toilet with a washbasin in the wooden house. The shower is in the main house approx 20 meters away it is accessible 24 hours. We have a gazebo that overlooks our fields and woods and is also accessible to guests 24 hours. Barabrith is partially covered by approx two hectares of woods and guests are welcome to go and wander around in them. If you are fond of playing pool this may also be an option as we have a vintage 7ft pool table that doubles as our dining table.
We are open all year round, we live here! But the wooden house is only heated by electric heaters and whilst we can offer two duvet’s or extra blankets we can not guarantee the rooms will be “warm” during the winter when temperatures in Croatia can dip to minus 15 or lower at times!
Food;
Guests are free to use the barbecue facilities but our kitchen facilities are private. Guests are required to only bring, cook and consume vegan food on our land. We can advise on places locally where you can find vegetarian/vegan food to eat.
If you are around in the morning when we eat breakfast we will share it with you and the same for our main meal of the day which is usually between 4pm and 7pm but we can are flexible about the time. There is no added cost to sharing our food. We eat a vegan diet and use fruit and vegetables we grow ourselves whenever possible. We also tend not to use sugar as a sweetener preferring alternatives like date syrup instead.
Booking;
We ask for bookings to be emailed to us at least a week before the date. Your booking is not confirmed until we reply by email to say it is. For bookings to be fully confirmed we require at least half the payment in advance. You can pay either by bank transfer or by PayPal – our PayPal account uses the email info@barabrith.org which is also our email for any other enquiries you may have – like our bank details. We can be paid to a UK account or a Croatian Euro account.
We ask that you clear your rooms by midday on your last day with us if we have new guests coming but you are welcome to stay for to share our meal that day if that has not already happened. We will provide new bed sheets every 3 days or for an extra charge of £5 when requested.
