Overview
Situated in the idyllic village of Kojsko in Slovenia’s iconic Brda region, Villa Inesa is a beautiful countryside residence for up to eight guests, nestled between the Julian Alps and the Mediterranean Sea. The villa offers dreamy vistas of rolling hills and sun-drenched vineyards, a private pool, a wine cellar and a luxurious sauna. This rural gem is a wine lover’s paradise, but it also has plenty to keep visitors seeking fresh air, stunning scenery and a relaxed pace of life coming back time and time again.
Immerse yourself in the sounds and sights of Slovenia’s natural beauty as you take a dip in the villa’s sun-soaked pool. From here, you will have the chance to take in panoramic views of the orchards and olive groves of the entire Brda region before relaxing with a cup of coffee on one of the comfortable poolside sun loungers. The villa’s outdoor space also features a covered dining area, perfect for a sunset meal with the whole family.
Just a few steps from the pool, the villa’s interior living space is a light-filled room with original brickwork and a large, ultra-comfortable sofa. Here, you can relax and chat all evening with a glass of local wine after a day exploring the area’s meandering hills and countryside paths. The room benefits from plenty of natural light, gorgeous tile flooring, a flat-screen TV and understated furnishings.
Downstairs, you will also find a simple, well-appointed kitchen and a dining area with a unique twist – a glass floor underneath the dining table gives guests a chance to peer down into the villa’s secret wine cellar below! The cellar, which is accessible via a hatch located next to the dining table, is laden with many excellent local wines carefully selected by the villa’s host. The host will be happy to guide you through the selection and any wines you decide to sample can be added to your stay.
Two bedrooms are located on the ground floor, the first of which has direct access to the sunny garden. You will find high, wooden-beamed ceilings, a lovely seating area and a double bed here. The second bedroom on the ground floor is open plan, accessed via a hallway with a kitchenette, the ideal space for preparing breakfast or a quick snack, and a quirky ladder to the mezzanine above. This is another large bedroom with open roof beams, a double bed, desk, wardrobe and seat. There is a view into this bedroom from the mezzanine above, and two single beds can be found here.
The third bedroom is located on the villa’s characterful mezzanine and can be accessed via the stairs in the living room. This is a charming room with exposed brick and modern furnishings. Roof light windows allow for plenty of natural light.
The villa has three bathrooms, one of which features a gorgeous, Finnish-style sauna. Here, you can completely relax your entire body after a day of cycling through Brda's picturesque villages. One of the villa’s bathrooms also features a shower with a drying feature for those who wish to feel ultra-pampered at the end of the day. These thoughtful features make staying at Villa Inesa a uniquely restorative and rejuvenating experience.

Location
About the surrounding area of Villa InesaKojsko is a tranquil village that perfectly encapsulates all that the stunning, dreamlike landscapes of the Brda region have to offer. While the region’s endless vineyards, picturesque villages and unforgettable sunsets have brought about many comparisons with Italy’s Tuscany region, this little-known rural gem in the heart of Slovenia is a bewitching location with charms all of its own.
For wine lovers and those interested in gastronomic experiences, the Brda region offers visitors the opportunity to fully indulge in some delectable dining experiences. From visits to local farmsteads and olive groves to an in-depth tour of a traditional wine cellar, you will be sure to feel the power of this region’s ancient connection with its land. The villa’s host can help rent mountain bikes or electric bikes so that you can easily make your way from one culinary sensation to another, working up an appetite along the way. The region is not only famous for its fantastic wine. For something a little different, you can also visit local beekeepers and honey producers, where you can taste some of the natural goodness Brda’s bees have produced.
From your peaceful hillside home, the sandy beaches of the Adriatic Sea are well within reach by car. Cross the border and soak up the sun on the Italian coastline for a change of scenery. Make your way to Sistiana Bay, where you can spend the day swimming on the beach of Castelreggio, overlooked by the impressive Duino Cliffs. The beach is ideal for families, with activities such as boat tours, plenty of pizzerias, and cafes in case you decide to stay and watch the sun go down over the sparkling blue water.
Closer to home, the emerald-green river of Soča Valley is a majestic sight. Here, there are activities such as kayaking, rafting and canyoning to keep adventure seekers happy. There are also three excellent golf courses in close proximity to the villa, each with unforgettable views. The medieval village of Šmartno is only five minutes from Kojsko by car. This entire walled village, with its charming cobblestone pathways and beautiful architecture, has been declared a cultural heritage monument. Visit for an afternoon stroll and a leisurely lunch at one of the lovely local restaurants. With Brda’s annual wine festival and cherry festival taking place here, you will surely find yourself enchanted by the village’s sweet natural beauty. From here, it’s back to your gorgeous villa for a sunset swim and an evening to remember.
