Vila Zora
Two newly renovated apartments in a mountain villa offer you an ideal starting point to immerse yourselves in the alpine wonderland we are calling home. Sustainable living, in-house craftsmanship, local materials, local knowledge next door.
What is your new home in the mountains like?
Located in the heart of an Alpine valley, surrounded by meadows and forests and dramatic north faces of Kamnik-Savinja Alps, Vila Zora offers you two newly renovated apartments on the upper floor of a 1930s villa. Renovated with in-house craftsmanship, care for locally sourced materials, and attention to tiny details which make a stay comfortable, relaxed, and insightful.
Ever wanted an in-house local guide, an experienced mountaineer and mountain rescuer to help you make the most of your stay in the mountains? Well, you got two of them, as your hosts live on site. Never skipping an opportunity to enjoy fresh goods from the garden? You get them right here as we are also one of the tiniest farms in Slovenia, growing vegetables and herbs and berries and more than happy to share the seasonal bounty. Ever wished for an expert on Alpine flora, a botanist and herbalist - or maybe for insights into local traditions and hidden gems from the author of local travel guidebooks? One of each is living just next door, and ready to lend you a hand while you enter into the wonderland we are calling home: Jezersko.
In-house craftsmanship, local materials
Our guideline when renovating and furnishing the apartments has been to stick to everything simple, high-quality, sustainable, and as local and authentic as possible. Most of the knowledge, work, and craftsmanship are ours, from walls and carpentry to interior design choices, photos, and these words. Every piece of wood we used can still tell a story of where it lived, as we were with it from the tree onwards, the beech and the spruce and the larch.
In the end, what makes a stay in place meaningful and memorable? The experiences you make, the explorations you venture into, the simple joys of staying in a comfortable place while having outstanding nature at your doorstep: rich biodiversity, forests, mountain streams, dramatic landscapes, night sky full of stars. Or so we think. And so we designed your place, putting functionality above vast echoing rooms, tools and tips to enjoy the outdoors above a TV set, authenticity and personal contact and immersion into the local world above a password protected key lockbox. If you see your next vacation in a similar way, welcome to your new mountain home.
Sustainable living
As we are ourselves trying to live alongside nature and as sustainable as possible, your new dwellings reflect that: solar panels on the roof, energy-saving lights and appliances, waste recycling, avoidance of plastics, conscious water management, natural air conditioning, organic body care and clening products, public transport access, seasonal organic homegrown veggies and fruits and homemade products on offer.
See, we are not only a place to relax and enjoy but also a living and working mountain farm. Or more of a big garden: we grow herbs and berries and vegetables, and produce herbal teas, drinks, salts, jams, liqueurs… It is a tiny scale operation, following more a vision of sustainable and responsible stewardship of the land than pursuit of monetary profits. It is a passion of learning, observing, adjusting to nature, and it is a joy to work with your hands, to help plants thrive, to eat fruits of your own labor. All is grown organically - and part of it is even being certified as such.
Tradition in hospitality
Vila Zora was built in 1936 especially to host tourists. Back in the day it was the highest of comforts for a mountain villa to have running (!) cold and hot water in every room, or so they boasted on their signboard. And if now the threshold of simple luxuries a good apartment should provide moved waaay higher, the hospitality remains the same. Then as now it is a willingness to open your home and your world to those who seek to discover it. We might be new to tourism rentals, but we were hosts for over a decade: as local guides and animators we introduced visitors into our world, as avid traveling cyclists we offered warm shower to fellow travelers, and as an organic farm we welcomed volunteers and interns who wanted an immersion into the work with the land and the life of the mountains.
