Located in a fantastic secluded position surrounded by unspoilt nature on the edge of a charming authentic alpine village with an abundance of beautiful walking and biking trails locally and just half an hour to Ljubljana and Lake Bled. Elipa house has been painstakingly renovated to create a charming comfortable holiday house where you will be just as happy relaxing on the terraces or garden soaking in the view as you will in exploring the local area. The house has no immediate neighbours so have a wonderful feeling of privacy, surrounded by trees, forests, pastures and wonderful views wherever you look. On the ground floor an entry area leads to the open plan living room - dining room - and fully equipped kitchen with dishwasher. The living room has a fantastic traditional farmhouse ceramic stove which keeps the whole house warm in Winter, from the living room you can exit onto the beautiful 3 sided wooden terrace with covered outdoor dining table, outdoor seating and magnificent views over the Ljubljana basin, the Skofja Loka hills and stretching 100km South to Mount Sneznik on clear days. In the loft are 2 double bedrooms each with access to a lovely glass fenced balcony and spacious bathroom with walk in shower. In the basement is additional bathroom with washer and dryer, social room with some kids toys and a table tennis room. The garden surrounds the house and is a great space for kids to play and explore whilst parents enjoy the terrace overlooking it. The last 100m is a well maintained non asphalt track to the house. In Winter months the asphalt road to the house can be slippery in icy / snowy conditions and a 4x4 is recommended in those months, but not essential as a car can be left up on the main road if conditions make it hard to get all the way to the house. We will be in contact after booking to arrange everything concerning your arrival. As everything is arranged in advance there's no need for a meet and greet at the property, which gives you more flexibility on when you arrive. If you have any questions or problems before you arrive or during the stay then just feel free to call our guest hotline and we can assist over the phone or send someone out to the property to help as required. Elipa House is in a wonderful secluded position with no immediate neighbours on the edge of a small area of holiday chalets in Apno village circa 700m above sea level with superb open 180 degree views of the Ljubljana valley and the Skofja Loka mountains. The house is in very easy reach (10 minutes drive down to gondola or 10 minutes up to upper car park) of great skiing at Krvavec which is arguably Slovenia’s best all round ski area with a good range of skiing for all abilities, decent lift infrastructure and a long season thanks to artificial snow making and reasonably high altitude (1971m). The area also offers a wide range of outdoor activities in Summer including paragliding, mountain biking and great mountain walking (Krvavec is crisscrossed with many different mountain trails to suit all abilities. It is also a start point for treks to the top of Grintovec, the highest mountain in the Kamniske Savinjske Alps at 2558m2 and various other peaks and multi day treks). There is also a popular Summer adventure park at Krvavec with high ropes course, go-karting and lift assisted mountain biking on marked biking trails. Many walking and biking trails also lead direct from the village up and down the mountain. PLEASE NOTE: * Tourist tax is calculated based on valid regulations at the time of booking.
