Hugo's House is a cosy A-frame holiday cottage tucked into the pine and spruce forest of Rakitna, a quiet village on a plateau about 800 metres above sea level. Wake up to birdsong and fresh air, drink water straight from the tap, and spend long evenings around the barbecue on the terrace.
Inside, warm wood ceilings, a renovated kitchen and a comfortable living room make it easy to settle in. Lake Rakitna is a 10-minute walk away for swimming or fishing, and hiking and mountain-bike trails start right at the front door. Ljubljana is only 25 minutes by car, so this holiday home also makes a calm base for day trips around Slovenia.

About Rakitna
Rakitna is a small village on a forested plateau about 800 metres above sea level, surrounded by pine and spruce woods. Thanks to its clean air and climate, it has been known as a health resort since 1930, especially for people with respiratory conditions. The tap water is excellent and safe to drink.
Life is quiet and slow: birdsong in the morning, the small lake for swimming and fishing in summer, and forest trails for hiking and mountain biking in every direction. Ljubljana is only about 25 km away, so city sights are always within easy reach.
- Krim, 1,107 mthe summit above Rakitna and a favourite local hike
- Iška Gorgea wild gorge with waterfalls and clear pools nearby
- Lake Cerknicaa "disappearing" lake that comes and goes with the seasons
- Ljubljana Marshesa nature park with UNESCO-listed prehistoric pile dwellings
