General overview
In our home, one can truly connect with nature. We love to recharge our batteries with short morning walks to the waterfall below the house, and we drift off to sleep with the soothing sounds of the nearby river. We enjoy our breakfast in the garden, overlooking the majestic mountains while listening to the birds sing. The privacy of our home and the peaceful surroundings, free from roads (although the house is reachable by car) and noise, are rare luxuries nowadays, and we increasingly appreciate them. We are aware of how lucky we are to have a house in this protected area of the beautiful National Park, where building is no longer permitted.
The space
Our house spans two levels. On the first floor, you'll find a kitchen with a dining area, a bathroom equipped with a bathtub, a bedroom featuring a spacious bed (180x200), and a cozy space furnished with a wood stove, a sofa, and a TV.
Ascending to the second floor, you'll encounter a living room furnished with a sofa, a TV, and a surround sound system, another bedroom with a generous bed (180x200), and an additional room with two beds (140x200 and 90x200). Nestled within our naturally adorned garden, you'll discover a stone seating area enveloped in moss, complete with a barbecue and a tranquil water feature. Adjacent to it stands a wooden table and bench, offering serene outdoor relaxation.
Guest access
Guests have full access to all areas of the house as well as the garden.
Notes
Slovenia is a diverse and picturesque country, offering a myriad of enchanting destinations for exploration. For instance, you can venture to the stunning Lake Bled, the charming town of Kranjska Gora, our lively capital Ljubljana, the renowned Postojna Cave, the imposing Predjama Castle - the largest cave castle in the world, and the delightful coastal town of Piran. Additionally, you can immerse yourself in the scenic beauty of Velika Planina in the Kamnik Alps.
As a non-smoking household, we kindly request that guests refrain from smoking and engaging in loud or disruptive activities.

Neighbourhood
The neighborhood boasts tranquility, enveloped by majestic mountains, babbling mountain streams, and lush forests. Just below our house lies a picturesque water grove accompanied by a cascading waterfall. Within our quaint valley, only a handful of residents call it home, yet during the summer months, it attracts numerous tourists. Nevertheless, our house remains secluded, ensuring absolute serenity. Adjacent to ours are two houses, each inhabited solely by an elderly individual. Right from our doorstep, an array of enchanting hiking trails awaits exploration.
Getting to my home
Access to our house requires a car, as there are no other transportation options available nearby.
The nearest shop, albeit small, is located 5 km from our house. For more extensive shopping needs, the charming town of Bovec, situated 13 km away, hosts larger stores.
What a wonderful cozy and relaxing place! It really is a home from home, in the most beautiful surroundings!
The kitchen has everything you need, whatever you feel like cooking, and we loved the cozy TV room upstairs!
So much to see and do in the area!
Darinka was a fantastic host giving us loads of local recommendations and very prompt and useful messages!
Darinka is an amazing host, gave me all the advice needed, and prepared the house nicely. We enjoyed our stay in the gorgeous surroundings of the house and went for plenty of picturesque hikes. I can highly recommend the place for all nature lovers.
Thank you to Darinka and her lovely family for making us feel so welcome in their amazing holiday home. They were very kind and generous hosts. We have driven through the night and came to delicious breakfast which was a lovely surprise. The house was beautifuly decorated for Easter and everything was nice and clean. The cottage is super cosy and the surroundings are like from a fairy tale. We have never stayed in a house with views as such. Absolutely breathtaking. There is so much to do in the area, beautiful waterfalls just at the doorsteps and so many hikes around.
We loved our stay and would highly recommend this family 😊

We are very excited to share our happy place between the mountains and forest in Slovenian National Park with nature lovers and explorers of our beautiful world.
