Surrounded by peaceful woodlands, Villa Leja is a traditional three-bedroom property boasting stunning views of Lake Bohinj and an abundance of alpine charm! With a genuinely enchanting location amidst the spectacular natural beauty of Triglav National Park, the elegant villa features custom-made furniture, an open fireplace and an idyllic green garden where you can soak up the morning sunshine in peace and quiet. Whatever the season, Villa Leja is the perfect place to immerse yourself in nature whilst relaxing and unwinding with your loved ones.

Begin each day with a cup of freshly brewed coffee in the garden, where you can enjoy the gentle mountain breeze and the sounds of the natural world around you. The garden offers plenty of space for family fun and games, as well as a comfortable outdoor seating area for the warmer months. The shores of beautiful Lake Bohinj are just a short stroll away, offering endless opportunities for outdoor activities. After a day spent hiking and discovering the wonders of Triglav National Park, make your way home to the villa’s green garden in time for a glass of excellent Slovene wine at sunset, followed by a home-cooked feast at the outdoor dining area.

Guests will be delighted by Villa Leja’s traditional interior spaces, which perfectly encapsulate the timeless natural beauty of the villa’s surroundings. The ground floor features an inviting lounge with sumptuous sofas, a flat-screen TV and a cosy fireplace, offering guests the ideal spot to curl up and unwind at the end of the day. A rustic archway allows the lounge to flow seamlessly into the villa’s charming dining area, where you can gather everyone together to discuss the day’s adventures over a delicious meal. The open-plan space leads into the villa’s fully equipped kitchen, with modern appliances and authentic hardwood finishes. The ground floor also has a cloakroom and access to the garden.

Villa Leja features three delightful double bedrooms, each boasting a warm and welcoming ambience and dreamlike views of the mountains. The master bedroom features a super king-size bed with a private seating area and a large balcony, where guests can enjoy a leisurely breakfast in the sunshine or a romantic glass of wine once the stars have appeared. Two more bedrooms offer king-size beds and access to a shared balcony with outdoor seating and more superb vistas. The villa also features a comfortable sofa bed. The first floor includes a compact WC and a spacious family bathroom with a shower and a jacuzzi bathtub, ideal for an indulgent soak after an invigorating day spent outside in the fresh air. Underfloor heating and central heating ensure that you remain warm and cosy during the autumn and winter months.

Villa Leja offers guests a relaxing and rejuvenating retreat in the heart of Alpine Slovenia, which boasts a serene location and picture-perfect views of Lake Bohinj and the mountains.
