Great place to stay, very close to the caves and the hosting and food was excellent.

Nice B&B with comfortable rooms en very good breakfast. Tamara and her husband are very friendly and helpfull.

We have been welcomed by Tamara's husband. The house and the location are charming. We had all our meals at the guesthouse. Absolutely everything was delicious! The room was small, yet comfortable. On the day we left, Tamara gave us a lift to the bus station in Divača.

Relaxed and beautiful environment. Very friendly and helpful hosts. Ervin is a great chef! Walking distance to the Skocjan caves which are amazing and a must see.

Ošterija is cosy and spotlessy clean, the village very small and peacefull, personnel really nice and the location is perfect to visit the marvellous Scocjan Caves. Dinner at Osterija is good and cheap, with local dishes and wine.

This site was perfectly located near the caves, clean, spacious, and in a beautiful setting!

Very nice stay

The accommodation is in a small village, very peaceful. The rooms are clean and comfortable, it feels like home. The hosts are wonderful and very helpful. The food is really nice also.

This Osterija is absolutely wonderful! It's located in a beautiful area of Slovenia, and is very peaceful and quiet. The rooms a spacious and modern, not at all like the run-down hotels you find in most rural areas. However, the best part of the stay was the restaurant on-premises. The food is incredibly good! Try the local gnocchi with fruit inside.

We loved this place, in a quiet area, near the caves of Scokjan, surrounded by green and beautiful scenery. The room is well equipped, with great detail. And we sleep surrounded by peace. A good breakfast, and especially appreciate the friendliness of its owners, who helped us get as we got a bit lost when arriving at night. Necessary car

The place is in the nature, at 2km of the famous caves Skocjan. The view is beautiful and the restaurant very famous for diner. Breakfast is also nice. The room is big with balcony. Very good place.

We liked this place very much. It is a cozy and calm pension with very nice people. We visited the place out of season, so the main restaurant was closed, but we could get good dinner anyways. Škocjanske caves are very close. We walked from the caves with our backpacks without problems. Thank you.

Siamo stati ospiti di Pierpaolo, un host molto attento e premuroso. La sua ospitalità e generosità ci hanno piacevolmente colpito. E' un appassionato conoscitore della zona e per questo è stato fonte di preziosi suggerimenti che hanno arricchito il nostro viaggio in Slovenia di nuove tappe e posti da scoprire. La casa è stata finemente ristrutturata; le foto sono assolutamente fedeli, ma sicuramente di persona avrete la possibilità di apprezzare al meglio il calore di questa casa. Nelle immediate vicinanze si trovano le grotte di San Canziano che sono raggiungibili tranquillamente a piedi con una passeggiata di pochi minuti immersi nella natura e nella tranquillità. Posto assolutamente consigliato per soggiornare tutto l'anno, vista anche la vicinanza con il mare. Speriamo di tornare presto da quelle parti.

The house was renovated with a lot of love and respect. We enjoyed our stay for many reasons: the most charming house at a unique location (calm, protected area), the kind attentions of Pierpaolo and his wife Anna, the interesting conversations. We were very sad that we had to leave this lovely place. The location is excellent and close to (Soca Valley, Ljubljana, Skocjan Caves, Predjama Castle, Idrija Mercury Mine, Trieste,...)

I almost don't know where to start. This lovely renovated home offers such a unique and genuine place to stay. Many sightseeing adventures are close at hand. And I cannot say enough about how awesome Pierpaolo is as a host. He can offer you many tips and historic insights into the area. This place was a gem and one of the most memorable places we have ever stayed!

Accueil exceptionnel de Pierpaolo qui nous a indiqué tout ce qui était à faire, les restaurants, etc... dans les environs. Notre hôte nous a même accompagné sur une ballade à pieds pour découvrir des fresques du moyen âge. Probablement, le meilleur accueil que l'on ait eu sur nos diverses expériences Airbnb dans différents pays.

Pierpaolo and Anna made us extremely welcome. The village of Škocjan (San Canziano, St Kanzian) is tiny but very picturesque, standing in the middle of a natural reserve on a rocky outcrop over caves, with hundred-metre gorges on two sides. Though Pierpaolo grew up in Trieste, parts of his family have been here in Škocjan for generations, and his bond with the village is evident. The accommodation is in the old priest’s house, which Pierpaolo has renovated with style and care. The caves are definitely worth a visit, though the size of the caverns is perhaps more impressive than the stalactite formations. The tour is in two parts, which we did on successive days. There is a good restaurant between the exit of the caves and the village, and a very good fish restaurant (Gostilna Godina) about a five-minute drive away. From Škocjan you are about half an hour from Trieste, and 45 minutes from Piran. I have no hesitation in recommending this accommodation and the first-rate hosts.

Pierpaolo is the most friendly and generous person. His beautiful house is situated at the perfect spot. Very Close to the Cave, you can walk, Close to the sea, to Lipica, to Triest and still so quite and remote that it never feels touristy. Our family was blessed to stay here!!! Thank you again, it is one of our nicest holiday-memories

Wir hatten ein tolle Zeit in einer modernen und großzügigen Wohnung mit Küche. Wir wurden herzlich empfangen und haben in den bequemen Betten unglaublich gut geschlafen. Die Höhlen sind wirklich sehenswert.Auch Kroatien ist nur einen Katzensprung entfernt!

Mateja è stata bravissima, molto disponibile, ci ha accolto all'arrivo, mostrato l'appartamento ed illustrato tutte le attrattive della zona. L'appartamento si trova in una zona tranquilla e facilmente raggiungibile dall'autostrada; si presentava pulito, accessoriato con tutti i comfort e posto macchina privato e recintato.

Mateja was a very kind and welcoming host. We were running late but she still welcomed us with a glass of lovely wine and lots of very helpful information about the area, including some ideas we hadn't come across. We didn't realise when we booked that you can walk to the caves from here in around 20-30 minutes. This gave a different view of the park area and was a real highlight. The studio was very well furnished and the other apartments she showed us were all of a very high standard. The location and directions were excellent. The restaurant recommendations were all very good too, especially Etna in the next village. She is a lovely person and incredibly kind and helpful - stay here, it's an excellent base for exploring this beautiful country.

Mateja fue muy amable y atenta, como no estábamos con vehículo nos fue a buscar a la estación de tren, su padre también fue muy amable al acercarnos más tarde al mercado. La comunicación antes del ingreso al departamento fue muy buena y fluida. El departamento es fiel a la publicación, o mejor aún, muy lindo y cómodo. La ubicación del departamento esta a 1 km de Divaca, y no tiene mercado para comprar víveres pero es un lugar hermoso que sin duda recomiendo, solo habrá que tener en cuenta pasar por el mercado cuando se esta en Divaca. Es un pueblo muy lindo y de ahí hay un camino señalizado por el bosque a las Skocjan Caves que es realmente hermoso.

Mateja's apartment is really close to Škocjan Cave. It is a nice experience to walk through the education path and visit the cave. However, it would be quite tough to join Tour 1 & 2 in the cave and then walk back to the apartment. Drive to the cave unless you are fit or have a whole day here. The apartment is quiet, clean, and close to Divača. You could get almost everything needed within 10 minutes. The private parking space is small. Drive here with a compact car. By the way, try the restaurant Mateja suggests. They are good.

Mateja's really one of a kind. She's very responsive and caring about your well-being. The place she prepared for you is clean, perfectly equipped and ideal for resting or trekking around. Of course it is a place of choice if you want to visit the Skocjan Caves (25 mins on foot, they're easy to find) and spend a few hours in the park surrounding the Skocjan vilage. Once again, Mateja will make your stay a great one. I recommend the place greatly :)

Fantastic place. Lovely walk to the caves from this location. Easy to get to Divača. Really comfortable and stylish

Mateja's place is lovely and in such a wonderful location. Wish we would have had another night to stay in the area since she had so many wonderful suggestions for things nearby. Definitely recommend the hike to the caves! Mateja was very helpful and accommodating, and we would certainly stay there again.

Strongly recomended

The host canceled this reservation 2 days before arrival. This is an automated posting.

Io e la mia ragazza abbiamo soggiornato in un appartamento dal 31 dicembre al 2 gennaio 2016. Il sig. Emil non c'era quando siamo arrivati verso le 20.30 ma ha lasciato un biglietto con le indicazioni sull'appartamento, dicendo che sarebbe arrivato il gg dopo e lasciandoci un appartamento più grande rispetto a quello prenotato. La struttura è davvero accogliente e calda (fuori c'era -4). Il nostro appartamento molto bello, spazioso, molto pulito e profumato, cucina e bagno impeccabili, con tutto il necessario. Riscaldamento acceso. Il posto è vicino al confine italiano, e alle grotte di San canziano e postunia, e a solo 50 minuti di macchina da Lubiana. Abbiamo passato 3 giorni fantastici, come se fossimo a casa nostra. Tutto impeccabile! Lo consiglio vivamente. Emil è una persona molto disponibile e gentile, parla un discreto italiano e non ci h fatto mancare niente.

Great apartment in a quiet rural location near the Škojcan caves. Well equipped including a bottle of local wine :) Would stay again.

Hi Ana and Rok Thank for your hospitality over Easter 2016. We enjoyed your nice and cosy renovated landhouse in Dolenja vas very much. The big rooms with separat bathrooms were very suitable for our group of 10. The town is very quiet and was for our purpose perfect located. We were nicely surprised about the close distances to our Orienteering venues AND to highly recommended UNESCO world heritage attractions. The only point of improvment is the functionality of the heating and the warm water supply for the shower (we ran out of warm water after five to six persons). But still we can recommend Ana's and Rok's landhouse for your stay in Slovenja. Thx and best wishes from Chris, OLG Chur

We were two families with young children, and we stayed for two nights. Ana and Rok are very nice and warmly welcomed us. The house is beautiful and well equipped, including the kitchen. The location is good for traveling in the caves area. :-)

Ana and Rok were amazing hosts during our 9-day, 16-person family reunion in early July. Their home is a lovely mix of modern (kitchen/baths) and old world (thick stone walls which kept the interior cool during the hot summer days). Ana and Rok invited us into their neighboring home to watch three different World Cup games on their TV. They also provided fresh towels mid-week, a large barbecue grill, and citronella candles to make our stay more comfortable. They allowed us to use their laundry facilities, too, since there is no washing machine or clothes dryer in the house. The sleeping arrangements were very comfortable for the 11 adults and 5 children. They also provided outdoor toys, a highchair, and a sleep cot/crib to make the children's stay easy and enjoyable. The weather was beautiful for most of the week, so we took most of our meals outside on the patio. There was a large dining room inside as well. Coming from the United States, we were surprised that there was no central "living room" with sofas/couches or TV in the home. There were a couple of pull-out sofas in the bedrooms that we used for sleeping only. This was fine for us since the weather outside was mostly beautiful and we were out and about most of the day. Had we stayed during the winter, we would have missed having a living room. The location was ideal. It is in the southwestern portion of the country, about 30 minutes from Ljubljana, 60 minutes to Lake Bled, 30 minutes to Piran on the coast, 2 hours to Venice, and minutes away from the Predjama castle and Postojna and Skocjan caves. The village is very small and easy to walk around. There is a little cafe/restaurant but no local grocery stores; a 15-minute drive to neighboring villages was necessary to buy groceries. All in all, a perfectly positioned and beautiful home with wonderfully friendly and charming hosts. Thank you for making our reunion so memorable!!

Experiencia inolvidable. Recomendable 100%.

We had a wonderful time in this charming old house,which is new and very well renovated.Our hosts were very friendly, they answered all questions quickly and made even a reservation for a visit in Skocian cave for us.We had a family weekend and it was perfect for all of us.Sitting outside in the patio/garden was great.The family suites don´t have doors between sleeping and living rooms (except the bathroom) -maybe this is good to know for large groups.Skocjan cave (15 minutes) is fantastic, Lipica (20 minutes) is very interresting and you can arrive Triest in half an hour.We definitly recommend this house!

The house is wide and clean. Brand new and very comfy. The village is amazingly small and quite with a lovely restaurant. Perfect if you need some relaxing holidays. Cities are anyway close by, so if you want some fun you can still have it. The owners are extremely friendly and helpful. Very appreciated!

A place that doesn't live up to its full potential, and in that respect - a disappointment. It seems to be at the beginning of its life as a rental property, and the operating philosophy is not yet figured out. Our feeling was that a bunch of rather low-cost expenses on the owner's part could have improved the stay considerably. 1) No WiFi, only a USB-connecting wireless card, which didn't help us much with the devices we brought with us. 2) Low quality, and too few, towels. 3) No shades for the first-floor apartment windows. 4) No phone for local calls 5) A/C wasn't working (during a very hot week). The acoustics in the first floor apartment are poor - make sure that you know the people staying in the top floor. Prepare your own breakfasts at the house: the kitchen is fully equipped.

We only stayed a night enroute to Italy - but should have planned for a few days of hiking/horseback riding. Great location for family fun in the countryside. Quiet, clean and well equipped. Ana was a patient, informative and forthcoming host (and her husband brews an excellent Jaegermaster dejestif). Many Thanks!

It was great to stay with Doriana. She was very nice & helpful. After a long drive we were happy to relax in her beautiful garden. Everything was very clean and we felt like at home.

La località è bella, la casa accogliente e pulita. Doriana è stata disponibile alle nostre esigenze, gentile e piacevole nell'accorglierci .

The listing was accurate. My room was lovely and cozy and immaculately clean.

Ospitalità e gentilezza. Grazie a Doriana per la bella accoglienza nella sua splendida casa.

Doriana è stata fantastica, meglio che essere a casa. L'abitazione è accoglientissima e star davanti a tutte le stufette è uno spettacolo! Doriana spero di rivederti presto!

Would definitely look back at our short stay in Doriana's place with warm feeling :) Everything was nice there: the house, spacious room, the garden in the morning, the grey hare, and especially our hostess Doriana. She is kind and cheerful person, and I'd surely choose this place again in Pesek and meet her!

Mi sono trovato molto bene e la signora Doriana è molto disponibile per aiutarti.

Very warm welcome into a cosy, tidy house. Doriana has little English but we spoke in French and her son Jan was there to translate any English. They offered us a drink and we enjoyed a chat. The room was spacious and Doriana wanted us to be careful of the floor e.g no shoes. The bed was big and soft but comfortable. The bathroom was also very nice. Kitchen use is not allowed so we went up the street to the restaurant she recommended. Toast and coffee was 7 euro each.

C est une auberge tenue par une famille..ils sont adorables. L auberge est en pleine campagne entre le site de lipica et les grottes. Nous avons hérité d une grande chambre avec un balcon, la vue et les petits oiseaux du matin. Une kitchenette et une baignoire balneo. Nous avons opté pour le resto de l auberge le soir. Simple et de qualité. Et généreux (comme partout en Slovénie ou presque ). Une étape détente pour nous.

Very nice and pleasant experience. Unfortunately I did not stay long, but the host was very nice and helpful.

Perfektni

Lovely setting. Very near the caves. Apartment was perfect for us

Everything was perfect, Jana was a great host. And the rooms are like in the image :) All recommendations for Jana and her accommodation.

We had an incredible 3 days at Zenja, hosted by Mateja. Mateja has created a serene retreat complex for independent travelers (who can stay in beautiful studio apartments) or for larger groups who can use a well equipped and modern group kitchen. Our studio apartment was clean and detailed oriented, even having screens on all the windows! Mateja is a down to earth person, eager to provide a simple, back to nature evnvironment for her guests. She was in perfect contact with us, allowed us to check in early, and for a fee, gave my wife a wonderful massage! The photos of the place accurately show the units. The location is also perfect: a 20 minute walk to the caves. Highly recommended!

Appartement agréable, calme et bien placé. Mateja est efficace à l'arrivée et disponible si besoin pendant le séjour.

We had a wonderdul time at Mateja's place. The appartments are very clean and very nice. Everything is practicaly new. They are composed of one room, that has a double bed and the kitchen. You can also ask for a cradle. Nearby you'll find a bank, some very good restaurants and supermarket. I recommend you Margherita's Italian restaurant. The apartments are near most of the climbing areas of this part of Slovenia.

We had a very good stay! The appartement was clean and had everything we needed. Also it's very close to all important things to see. Mateja was perfect, she told us everything we needed to know.

Mateja was such a good host, everything is so well organized with all the information we needed printed on paper for suggestions on where to eat, where to do groceries, what do to....etc We stayed in the violet room and it was gorgeous. Everything looked brand new and very clean. The kitchen had everything we needed and the bed was very comfortable. We arrived from the Skocjan caves and her apartment was so conveniently close with a parking spot available for our rental car. We would definitely stay there again!!

L'appartement est impeccable , comme neuf, joliment décoré, calme, petit avec un joli balcon. Idéal pour un couple pour 2 nuits, pas plus car pour cuisiner il n'y a qu'une plaque à 2 feux, pas de four electrique ou de four à micro-ondes Merci pour la réduction pour les grottes, extraordinaires et pour toutes les informations Nous n'avons pas vu Mareja mais n'avons rencontré aucune difficulté

It was nice and clean place. The host was helpful. Only problem was that the place was hard to find (it's house 66 right behind Hotel Pesek) and we had to wait for an hour then the host come...

Jan's nette, unkomplizierte und hilfsbereite Art hat den Aufenthalt sehr angenehm gemacht. Das Haus ist mit dem Auto gut zu erreichen und man ist schnell in Trieste oder sonstigen Sehenswürdigkeien. Der Garten ist gross und schön, zum Zelten ideal. Einziger Makel , man hört die Strasse relativ gut. Mir hat es dennoch sehr gut gefallen und würde aufjedenfall wieder hierher kommen.

Everything corresponds with the description. The family is very kind and friendly, the mother is very talkative and helpful. Totally advisable.

Welcoming atmosphere, friendly people

Doriana made us feel home and was very careing host. Garden is quiet, spatious, nice pizzeria very near and Pesek perfectly situated for exploring italian, slovenian and even croatian coastline. Recomended.

I spent one night in front of the house of Doriana and her daughter, who speaks perfect german. I could use the shower and the toilet inside their nice house. We didn't meet personally, but they organized everything in the best way to make my arrival and my stay perfect. I really want to thank you very much to make this possible and to arrange everything so, so good. I highly recommend this host near the slowenian-italien border, I visited the cave of Skojcan (UNESCO world heritage place) , the Lipizzaner horses home and the little town of Muggia near Triest, where I felt like in Venezia before I continued my trip to Croatia. Greetings from Speyer, Germany! Sabine

It was a really nice staying for us, Doriana was really kind and caring, make us feel home in the garden and house. And a warm shower is always a nice thing:) I can recommend the place.

Nous avons séjourné une nuit à PESEK et avons été très bien accueillis par Doriana. Eau, électricité, accès à la terrasse et salle de bains avec (wc, douche et baignoire). A 100 m de la frontière slovène. Bars et Restaurants juste à côté. Parfait !
