At heart of the Kozjansko regional park’s exceptional natural and cultural landscape, in a serene forest clearing not far from the ancient Castle Podsreda, stands a renovated homestead.
In spite of their contemporary design, the buildings reflect the knowledge of past builders. We created them by leaning on the research of traditional Kozjansko architecture. Traditional elements are reflected both in the structural proportions and architectural details, such as the typical local gank external balcony walkways, the door, the house portal, the execution of the gable … and the shape of the door handles.
The house has three floors; the ground floor consists of an open plan kitchen/living room and a study – i.e. quiet room with a library. The loft is reserved for sleeping quarters, while the quiet basement level holds a sauna.
The entire composition rests on the original buildings’ foundations. Rebuilding breathed new life into this Kozjansko homestead, one of whose interior beams bore the inscription 1854 marking its year of construction.
The homestead is rented as a unit and can accommodate up to four adults or two couples with children (i.e. a maximum of eight people); guests have use of all spaces throughout the buildings.
