The details
Nestled deep in the emerald forests of southeastern Slovenia, Villa Taja is a soothing sanctuary where peaceful slow living meets contemporary comfort. Set on the atmospheric ruins of the ancient village of Sredgora, this sustainably built four-bedroom retreat offers up to ten guests a soul-stirring escape into nature. Here, you wake to birdsong carried through towering oak trees, wander barefoot across sun-warmed stone courtyards and settle into evenings beneath vast, star-filled skies. With a Finnish sauna, an outdoor jacuzzi and gardens rich with herbs and vegetables, this is a place designed to melt stress away and reconnect you with the simple rhythm of forest life.
Days begin quietly in the sunny courtyard, coffee in hand as the scent of rosemary and woodsmoke drifts through the air. Families spread out across the expansive gardens where little ones can roam freely, while adventurers set off straight from the doorstep to explore Ko?evje’s legendary hiking and biking trails. After a full day outdoors, nothing beats slipping into the bubbling jacuzzi at sunset and watching the light fade behind the hills. As dinner sizzles on the barbecue in the summer kitchen and the firepit crackles into life, you’ll find yourself sinking into a blissfully unhurried pace.
Inside, Villa Taja feels warm, welcoming and thoughtfully crafted with natural materials at every turn. The open-plan living space invites togetherness with a cosy lounge, well-stocked home library and sweeping forest views framed by large windows. A custom-made contemporary kitchen offers everything you need for relaxed home cooking, while the charming dining area sets the scene for long, laughter-filled meals. A quirky hammock-style net suspended above the lounge gives guests a playful spot to curl up with a book or simply gaze down at the cosy bustle below.
Four calming double bedrooms echo the villa’s gentle connection to nature with soft tones and understated style. Two modern bathrooms with walk-in showers ensure everyone has space to refresh after woodland adventures. Restore aching muscles in the Finnish sauna before dinner or ask your wonderful host Mojca to prepare fresh homemade meals using produce from the nearby farms. With her warmth, knowledge and delicious baking, she’s one of the many reasons guests find Villa Taja so unforgettable.
Beyond the villa, the Ko?evje region showcases some of Slovenia’s most pristine landscapes, from the magical wetlands of Lahinja Landscape Park to the clear waters of the River Kolpa where you can swim, kayak and sunbathe in summer. Winter stays bring cosy snow-dusted tranquility and days skiing at the nearby Ga?e resort. Whatever the season, Villa Taja offers a rare retreat into Slovenia’s wilder side — a place where memories gather like firelight on a still forest night.
