WELCOME TO KARMEN'S HOUSE IN OLD TOWN
DUBROVNIK
An original Venetian town house
"lost" in the old heart of Dubrovnik
This
delightful and cozy Venetian town house near the Music School
has led something of a charmed life as it predates the 1667
earthquake, built as it is on solid stone, and it also luckily
escaped damage during the siege. Here in the medieval Old
Town, houses competed for space with palaces, churches and
monasteries and so they extend in a vertical rather than a
horizontal plane.
Entering from the narrow stone-flagged street, where locals
sit out on the steps to exchange news under washing swaying
in the breeze, the ground floor is taken up by a cozy living
and dining area, a galley kitchen and a small shower room.
Stairways lead up to the two bedrooms, each occupying its
own floor. The house has been in the possession of owner Karmen's
family for well over 100 years and remains as homely as if
they were still in permanent residence, filled as it is with
interesting artifacts.
There
is no shortage of restaurants and cafes in the Old Town to
suit all tastes, whilst the best place to shop for self-catering
essentials is the colorful morning market on Gundulic Square
less than a five-minute stroll away, where piles of juicy
aubergines, tomatoes, peppers and figs are brought to market
from outlying gardens.
As the Old Town is a car-free zone, Karmen or a member of
her family and a porter will meet you at the town walls and
lead you through the warren of streets and steps to her house.
Don't worry if you do not memorize the way back, as the fun
of staying in this part of town is in losing yourself and
making your own fortuitous discoveries.
