In addition to its famous vineyards, the Dolenjska region is known for its range of activities that appeal to adventurous travellers, including skydiving, rafting or canoeing, hiking and cycling. For something more relaxing try the restorative thermal waters at Smarjeske Toplice (15 minutes).
Back to the wine! There are many excellent vineyards in the Krka River Valley, several under 15 minutes from the cottage. Most are open to visitors so make sure you book a tour and a tasting, and then pick up your favourite to enjoy at home.
The beautiful city of Novo Mesto was built on a bend in the Krka River the city has remained untouched over the centuries, except for its modern central market which is in the heart of the historic town. Here visitors will be able to find the best local produce to cook at home. Otherwise, lose yourselves in the winding medieval streets and enjoy the stunning architecture.
The cottage is only 45 minutes from Ljubljana. So it is a great option for a day trip from the cottage.
