Charming and cozy

This place is adorable. We felt like we were in the Snow White cottage. Irena gave us plenty of info beforehand so we knew what to look for with parking and directions. And when we looked slightly confused with our suitcases, a local escorted us to the front door where Irena was waiting. The town is adorable with friendly merchants and the woman who works at the monastery even gave us a private tour. Very cool. Would definitely love to spend more time in the area and wish we had more than one night. One note: if you have a hard time with stairs, they are steep and unique. Totally doable, but a little challenging in the middle of the night to go to the bathroom.

ein komfortables Haus, stylisch, nix hat gefehlt

Tolles Ambiente in einem historischen Haus (das schönste in Vipavski Kriz!). Eingerichtet mit allem Komfort. Perfekte Kommunikation mit der Gastgeberin. Sehr gut gelegen für Ausflüge zu den Höhlen, guter Ausgangspunkt zur Fadfahrten (aufgrund der Höhenunterschiede sind e-bikes sehr zu empfehlen). Sogar unsere Räder konnten wir gesichert abstellen.
