Scout holiday home in the countryside near city

Unique 170 m2 house with 400 m2 garden which scouts use for their meetings in the countryside. Something different, not like any other. Modest, but equipped with everything you need. Located at lake in a rural village, yet very close to city Kranj (7' by car), Ljubljana (20'), Lake Bled (30') and Postojna cave (1h). Ideal for families traveling by car since it has a central location from where most points of interest are reachable in an hour. Not suitable for parties or public transport users. This house is officially rated as a holiday home. Your stay under our roof will fulfill all the official rules and that means each adult needs to pay 1.45 € tourist tax per night (in other more tourstic communities like Ljubljana, Bled and the seaside is 3.00 €!). Children from 7 to 17.99 years pay 0.73 € per night, but children up to 6.99 years or disabled persons (with a valid disabled's ID) don't pay the tax at all. Tourist tax must be collected at check-in. If you decide to stay longer than 6 nights then Airbnb will automatically lower you the basic price for 6 % discount (by experiences of former guests the app sometimes doesn't inform you about that, but if you do the math you'll notice a difference in the price per night between 6 and 7 nights long stay). A discount of 10 % will automatically apply in case of 30 nights or longer stay. If you’re scouts and you're looking for a place for your summer camp, read "Other things to note". This used to be a small farm which scouts have renovated with their own hands to provide a space for meetings in the countryside. We've made a compromise between keeping the original old traditional look (for instance firewood-stoves and fireplaces, brick walls in the attic) with all the necessary modern amenities, including the air conditioning of the attic. Now we call this house a place for making unforgettable stories. In autumn and winter we have here scout meetings and educational courses, but we make it available for other guests when we don't plan activities in it. If you also find our house interesting and would like to make your own unforgettable story, then you’re welcome to come, especially if you are or used to be a member of the scout movement or if you just like modest accommodations like ours. What you pay to the Airbnb will help support our scout activities in the house and the further renovation of it, as this is the never ending process. Also, if you'd like to stay at our place but you have some suggestions or wishes, just let us know and we'll try to make it real for you. As you can see from the photos there are Christian religious symbols and pictures in the house, but we respect and welcome under our roof people of all faiths and believes. Village church is right behind the house, 100 m away. Church bells mark each 15 minutes a time passing by and additionally ring in the mornings & evenings, especially on Sundays or important religious holidays. If you wish to sleep with windows open consider that it might wake you up each day at 7:00. Whole house is at your service, that means: - kitchen, - living room, - 1 bedroom in ground floor, - 1 bedroom in the attic (with an air conditioner), - big multi-purpose room in the attic / 3rd bedroom (with an air conditioner), - terrace in the attic, - 2 bathrooms and 2 toilets (in ground floor and in the basement), - a whole backyard. In the backyard we have a lot of garden furniture with seats, benches, tables, umbrellas, hammocks, sandbox and swings for children to play, a pair of rackets for badminton, a garden kitchen and a charcoal grill for barbecue. There's enough place to park 3 cars in front of the house. On the day of your arrival we'll meet at the house and we'll give you all the information regarding your stay at us. In case you need any suggestions what to do or see in Slovenia we have a lot to recommend. During your stay there will be no other people present in the house, but if you'll need any kind of information or help we'll be happy to help you. You must be aware that the house stands in center of a quiet, rural village and it isn't suitable for parties or loud music etc. During the day you'll hear and occasionally smell cows, tractors and church bells (the church stands 100 m away from the house and it starts ringing at 7:00), but in the evening the village becomes very quiet since people and farm animals need a good night rest. That means you also need to turn down your noise volume after 22:00. Or you can go to one of three pubs in the village as well. One of them is very nice. It's actually a boathouse where you can also rent an SUP (check photos in photo gallery). There's a terrace at the lake, very close to the house, where you can watch birds or you can take a nice walk around the countryside. 5 km from the house there are ruins of old castle Smlednik. During the day there's a nice vista from the top of the hill, and during the night it gets fairy like in an old fairy tale (check photos in photo gallery). Location of the village is also very suitable for different activities in the region. There's only 15 km to the best known Slovenian ski centre Krvavec, 35 km to Slovenian natural pearl lake Bled, 15 km to our capital Ljubljana and only 5 km to city Kranj, where you have everything that city usually offers: shopping centres, cinemas, lot of different bars and restaurants, sport infrastructure, swimming pools etc. The main Slovenian airport - Jožeta Pučnika Ljubljana - is only 8 km away. If you decide to come by car there's place for 3 cars in front of the house. If you travel with public transportation you have to be aware that Slovenian villages aren’t as well connected with public bus services as are the cities. From Monday to Friday public bus connects Trboje with Kranj 7 times per day. There it stops at main bus and at main train station, too. Bus ticket costs 1,8 €/person. On weekends there are no buses. Bus station in Trboje is 100 m from the house. Trboje doesn’t have a direct connection with Ljubljana. You’d firstly have to go by bus to Kranj and from there with public buses or trains anywhere you wish to go. Kranj is connected very well with all other cities and directions. So let's stress that the location is mostly suitable for somebody with a car or in case you’re planning to have an easy weekend with resting and attending just local activities. The legislation about renting Airbnb homes in Slovenia demands that every adult guest, who wish to rent legally through Airbnb, needs to pay a tourist tax, just like staying in any other tourist facility like a hotel, motel, camp etc. So it should be the same wherever you’d like to rent Airbnb legally. If they won't charge you the tax, you'll be renting it illegally. Ask about that before you book your place somewhere. The advantage of staying at us is that the tax is only 1.45 €/adult person/night while in more tourstic communities like Ljubljana, Bled and the seaside is 3.00 €. Children from 7 to 17.99 years pay 0.73 €/night, but children up to 6.99 years and disabled persons (with a valid disabled's ID) don't pay the tax. Scouts on a summer camp - if there are few more than 15 people we have some extra mattresses to sleep on a floor. And in case the renting price is a bit too high for you, let us know and we'll find the right price for your scout camp budget. We've been in that situation many times before and we know the story well.
