Seasonal Escapes

Hunting near Zadar. A holiday to share.

A day in the Dalmatian hinterland for some. A slow morning by the sea for others. Then everyone back at Lostura, with dinner to make and an evening to share.

Quick answer

Quick answer: Hunting near Zadar. A holiday to share.

For guests considering a hunting holiday near Zadar, Villa Lostura can be the accommodation base for a stay of seven nights or more. Enquire directly with the independent contacts below about hunting arrangements. Partners who do not hunt can enjoy their own villa or city day — with everyone returning to the downstairs kitchen, social room and private wellness.

A different kind of autumn escape

A shared holiday does not need one shared hobby. If hunting is part of your reason for coming to northern Dalmatia, the rest of the stay can still be about sea air, good food and time with the people you brought along.

Consider an autumn or winter week with room for independently arranged hunting days, a visit to Zadar and days with no plans at all. Your chosen operator must confirm what is possible for your dates: there is no single open season covering every activity, and neither weather nor availability is guaranteed.

Different plans for the morning. The same table in the evening.

Bring your other half. Make it a holiday for both of you.

Partners and companions do not have to join the hunt to enjoy the trip. While part of the group heads inland, others might stay for a late breakfast, a book and the private sauna or jacuzzi. On a fine day, a walk in Kožino offers an easy change of scene.

Or make a separate plan for Zadar’s old town: a coffee, the waterfront and time to wander. Arrange transport for those going out separately, and check off-season opening hours before choosing a particular attraction or restaurant.

Plan to come back together in the afternoon. There is no need to fill every hour — the pleasure is having your own place to return to, and a choice of ways to spend the rest of the day. Confirm pool and wellness operating conditions for your dates when arranging your stay.

Downstairs, the evening finds its own rhythm

The downstairs kitchen and social room give this kind of stay a particularly natural home. Pick up ingredients, prepare dinner together, sit around the table and let the stories of the day take their time. With two indoor kitchens, cooking need not be squeezed into somebody else’s schedule.

Afterwards, choose a board game, a film or a little time in the wellness area. The house is there to be enjoyed as a whole, not simply used as somewhere to sleep between outings. This is a quiet, private holiday setting, with consideration for the neighbours — not a party venue.
