Farm Cottage Holidays
on a Slovenian Vineyard
If you've been longing to take Farm Cottage Holidays, you should consider vineyard cottage holidays in Slovenia too. Nestled between Croatia, Hungary, Austria, Italy, and the Adriatic Sea, Slovenia has a great deal to offer the international traveler.
Slow-Pace Vacation Option
Travelers who prefer slow-paced vacations that allow them to fully experience the essence of the region will love vineyard cottage accommodations in lieu of more expensive hotels set amid the hustle and bustle of the city. There are several fine vineyard cottages available in Slovenia. Here is a sampling:
Rajaj Cottage
In Trska Gora, near Novo Mesto and the Croatian border, the Rataj Cottage sits on the Rataj family's vineyard estate where it overlooks the Krka River Valley.
In addition to touring the vineyard, sampling the vineyard's signature wines, and wandering the countryside at your leisure, guests can take advantage of the Krka River.
Kayaking and other water activities are a great stress reliever, hiking the hills and breathing the fresh air is rejuvenating, and visiting area monasteries is enlightening.
With accommodations for two, the Rataj Cottage is the perfect location for a honeymoon or a holiday to reconnect with that special person in your life.
Matjazeva Vineyard Cottage
The Matjazeva Cottage located in Otocec is also set near the Krka River and is also the perfect accommodation for a party of two. Filled with history and charm, this cottage is 150 years old and has been completely restored, furnished with period applicable furnishings, and includes the original kitchen range, a wine cellar, and a baker's oven.
Modern additions and amenities include the sauna area located adjacent to the bedroom and will make your stay especially relaxing. Guests are encouraged to take full advantage of all of the activities in the area, like hiking or biking the heritage trails in the Dolenjska and Bela Krajina area or enjoying spa amenities at the Smarjeske spa resort.
Opportunities for Day Trips Abound
Located so near to the border of Croatia, most of the vineyard cottages are within easy driving distance of an excursion to Slovenia's neighbor to the southeast. A slightly longer drive in any other direction will bring you to the gulf entering onto the Adriatic Sea, the Julian and Savinja Alps, or the capital city of Ljubljana.
Each area has its own unique destination attractions. Close by, Italy, Austria, or Hungary are also easy destinations for an international venture.
