Slovenia

It is the unspoiled nature that strikes the soul and spirit as soon as you arrive in the heart of Logar Valley.

Since Roman times, wine has been produced in the northeast of Slovenia: an activity that is still carried on today by the Dveri-Pax winery in Jarenina, in Podravje (the wine-growing region of Styria).

Martina Breznik’s cuisine is one of heart, place, and soul. Her vision of how the dining table can tell the story of culture and the land captures thoughts, spirit, and palate.

Arriving at Štanjel is somewhat like taking a journey into the past, within the walls of this medieval village built on Turn Hill, accessible only on foot.

As you stroll down the long tree-lined avenue leading to the Baroque Novo Celje palace, you know that the dining experience awaiting you will be very special indeed.

The road that runs between Lake Bled and Lake Bohinj could be described as the road of the two lakes. Situated in a region that looks out at the Julian Alps and is surrounded by green fields, castles and rural landscapes, these two lakes provide different images of the same land.
