Location
Halfway between Ljubljana and Zagreb, this cottage is in the heart of Savinja, famous for its protected countryside, with mountains and unspoiled forests. Guests can enjoy escaping into beautiful landscapes with hiking and cycling routes nearby.

Ljubljana (1 hour 40 minutes) makes a fascinating day trip, but closer to home is the town of Ptuj (35 minutes) which is the oldest town in Slovenia. Ptuj is a gem of a town, full of things to see, from Roman ruins to impressive Baroque architecture. The town’s castle is home to the Regional Museum, with a stunning view over Ptuj. Every February (15th – 25th) the town hosts the Kurentovanje Festival, Slovenia’s largest carnival. Local residents don masks and costumes to scare away winter. This is the first of many annual fairs and events throughout the year.

Over the border in Croatia, the Neanderthal Museum in the town of Krapina (35 minutes) is well worth a visit.

Ljubljana’s international airport is a 1 hour 55 minute drive. Please note that the pool is open from the 1st of June 2025 to the 1st of September 2025
