Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
If you’re looking for a countryside escape in Slovenia, this villa in the village of Koseze is perfect. It’s surrounded by the green mountains and valleys of the Karst region, so you won't have to go far for views. The house itself has all the old-world charm, with vaulted ceilings and exposed wooden beams. One of the bedrooms even has a little attic den accessed by a ladder, which kids will love. There’s a private terrace and garden for outdoor dining or just relaxing. Shops and restaurants are a short walk, and Ilirska Bistrica is just minutes by car. There's also plenty of hiking and biking trails nearby, including Sneznik Mountain, which is less than an hour's drive.

Home truths
There’s free parking here.
If you're travelling with little ones, your host can provide a cot and high chair for free. You'll need to request them in advance.
At full occupancy, two guests will be sleeping in the additional attic den space in the second bedroom. It's cosy with a low ceiling, so it's best suited for children.
For those with reduced mobility, there's a ground-floor bedroom and bathroom here.
While not all bathrooms are photographed, expect the style and quality to be consistent with the rest of the home.

Host
This home is managed by Oliver
This home is managed by a business on behalf of its owner. A member of their staff will be your point of contact before and during your stay. Nearly twenty years ago, Oliver and his friend began curating the world's most unique and rustic getaways. Driven by their own unforgettable experience at a chateau, they have grown remarkably since then. Much like Plum, they believe in hand-picked luxury that doesn't break the bank.
This home is nominated for the Plum Guide Award.
