Property care in Primošten
Primošten is the postcard: a small old town packed onto a peninsula, connected to the mainland by a short causeway. Behind it lie the drystone vineyard terraces of Bucavac, one of the most striking cultivated landscapes in the Mediterranean. It's close enough to Šibenik that we're there in half an hour.
In season
The old-town houses stand wall to wall, often without their own access. On the slopes outside, by contrast, drainage and retaining walls are the theme. We adjust the checklist accordingly instead of ticking the same boxes everywhere. Arrivals in the old village mean steps. There is no address on the peninsula that a suitcase reaches on wheels, and guests who were not told bring two large cases and a bad mood. We meet arrivals and carry, and we say in advance how many steps it is.
Out of season
The old village sits on a peninsula with water on three sides, so salt reaches every facade and there is no sheltered side to speak of. Inland the drywall vineyard terraces need their walls watched, because a collapsed terrace takes the slope with it. Out of season the village is beautiful and almost entirely shut. Most restaurants and shops close, so a winter visit brings what it needs, and a house here can stand empty for four months without anybody passing the door.
