Rural household
Samel's Cottage
Located at 1760 meters above sea level, Samel's Cottage offers an unforgettable experience of mountain idyll.
From the spacious terrace of this household, you get one of the most beautiful views of the mighty Prokletije massif, while the untouched nature of the National Park creates the perfect setting for relaxation, exploration, and escape from everyday life.
Samel's Cottage is located in Bajrović's katun, about 15 kilometers from Plav, in the heart of the Prokletije National Park. This location is ideal for hiking, mountain biking, and off-road driving, as well as for those seeking peace in pristine nature.
Just an hour's walk from the cottage is Hridsko Lake, one of the hidden gems of Prokletije and among the most beautiful lakes in Montenegro. This natural jewel is surrounded by dense pine forest and steeped in legends, often called the “lake of luck.”
The Redžematović Family – Hosts with Heart
Samel's Cottage is more than a mountain household – it is a story of tradition, family, and hospitality.
The Redžematović family spans three generations who spend winters in Plav and summers in Bajrović’s katun,
where they lovingly welcome guests and share with them the authentic experience of life on the katun.
Hosts Ramo and Ermina, together with their children Alen, Alma, and Samel, will make you feel right at home.
A warm welcome, homemade raspberry juice, and the cozy atmosphere of a traditional mountain cottage are the memories
each guest carries as the most cherished souvenir.
A special highlight is the homemade cuisine, lovingly prepared by the hardworking hostess Ermina Redžematović.
Her dishes preserve the spirit of the past. Authentic specialties of the region, made from organic ingredients,
represent the true richness of the Plav area and an essential part of the stay at Samel’s Cottage.

Samel’s Cottage is not just accommodation – it’s a return to nature, tradition, and a simple way of life,
where every moment spent in the fresh mountain air becomes unforgettable.
Whether you're an adventurer seeking mountain challenges, a nature lover looking for a peaceful retreat,
or a foodie wanting to taste authentic regional specialties, Samel's Cottage offers an unforgettable experience.
