The house stands on 7,800 m2 of private land. In the center is the beautiful large lime tree (Tilia). The garden also has several fruit trees. From the upper part of the garden you have a breathtaking view with 365 degree views over the beautiful Gailtal, the Julian Alps, Slovenia and Italy. Watching the sunset from the rocking chair in the evening or starting the day there, that's really enjoyable. You can always use the garden; To drink coffee, eat at the picnic table, sunbathe in one of the sun loungers or play football or badminton outside. Plenty of space! There are toys available outside for the children. The large above-ground swimming pool is also free to use for all guests.
The Garden is also very suitable for yoga and meditation (you can feel the power of the tree of life, in the middle of the garden, the Tilia).
For bicycles, motorcycles, skis or other sports equipment, we have a covered, enclosed area that you can use free of charge.
