The Wood Nest Apartment
A nature retreat with horses and handmade wood interiors, nestled in the serene forests of Borovnica. This cozy, fully renovated apartment (June 2025) offers a unique stay surrounded by nature, horses, and the warmth of handcrafted wooden furniture made in our family’s wood workshop. Built with sustainable, eco-friendly materials, the space reflects harmony with its natural surroundings. The apartment features two bedrooms (1 double bed, 2 single beds), a comfortable living and dining area, and a fully equipped kitchen with a refrigerator and microwave – perfect for light cooking and storing your favorite foods. A washing machine is also available for your convenience. Step onto the private terrace and soak in calming views of the forest. With prior arrangement guests are welcome to explore our organic garden and enjoy seasonal fruits and vegetables. Our horses live on the property – feel free to visit, feed, or help groom them with our guidance. Children can meet our friendly goats and learn about everyday life on a small, nature-focused homestead. We offer horse accommodation (upon request, with an extra charge), including homegrown mountain hay, a run-in shelter, and a fenced paddock. The surrounding trails are perfect for horseback riding through peaceful woodlands. For cycling enthusiasts, well-marked trails connect Borovnica with Menišija, Cerknica, Postojna, Vrhnika, and beyond. Just minutes away lies the dramatic Pekel Gorge, with its waterfalls and a hidden natural pool – ideal for a refreshing summer swim. The Technical Museum of Bistra is only 9 km away. Whether you’re a couple, family, or solo traveler – this is a place to slow down, reconnect with nature, and enjoy meaningful moments in a peaceful, welcoming environment. Ljubljana is just a 30-minute drive away – close enough for a day trip, far enough to leave the noise behind. We look forward to welcoming you and sharing the simple joys of life surrounded by nature and animals.
We’re a warm and friendly family who truly love nature and animals. Living close to the forest has inspired us every day, and we enjoy sharing that peaceful feeling with our guests. We craft beautiful wooden products in our own workshop, and we personally furnished the apartment with handmade pieces that bring a cozy, natural touch to the space. For us, it’s all about creating a welcoming, relaxing environment where everyone feels at home and connected to the outdoors. We look forward to meeting you and sharing our little slice of nature!
In addition to the peaceful surroundings, our apartment is perfectly located for exploring some of Slovenia's top attractions. Nearby, you can discover the stunning Pekel Soteska Gorge, a natural wonder with beautiful waterfalls and scenic trails. A short drive away is the Bistra Museum, where history and nature come together in a unique setting. For a day of adventure, visit Cerknica Lake, Slovenia's largest intermittent lake, or explore the mesmerizing underground world of Škocjan Caves and Postojna Cave—both UNESCO World Heritage sites. Each destination offers a unique experience, making our apartment an ideal base for your Slovenian adventure. Enjoy the tranquility of nature, then easily venture into the capital to explore its charming streets, cultural landmarks, and lively atmosphere.The vibrant city of Ljubljana is just a short drive away. Whether you're seeking a quiet retreat or a blend of nature and city life, our location provides the perfect balance. For dining and convenience, you’ll find several great options nearby. Enjoy delicious local cuisine at Gostilna Pekel and Gostilna Godec, both offering traditional Slovenian dishes in a cozy atmosphere. Gostilna Bistra Bajc is another excellent choice, known for its warm hospitality and hearty meals.
