About this property

Bela Luna—Where Serenity Meets Adventure Near Bled

Discover an idyllic base to explore the country while escaping the tourist crowds and living like a local. With cross-country trails right out of the backyard, and just thirty minutes from the best skiing in Slovenia with some hosting the World Cup, you'll be in heart of the winter scene sitting in a tranquil valley of a tiny historical town just outside Bled.

A gathering living room comes complete with a flat-screen TV and a comforting wood-burning stove, alongside a fully equipped open-plan kitchen where culinary delights come to life. Outside, a beautiful patio area awaits, surrounded by an enclosed yard and offering inviting seating arrangements, perfect for alfresco dining with striking mountain views. There is also a dedicated workspace upstairs for those who need to set up their laptop.

This cozy sanctuary features a master bedroom fitted with a plush queen-size bed, a charming second bedroom with two twin beds, and a convenient sofa bed on the top floor. With two bathrooms including a shower/bath, bidet, and ambient floor heating, as well as a half bath/WC, every comfort is catered for.

Nestled at a more secluded edge of the village with plenty of open space, the cottage offers the perfect setting for both relaxation and adventure. You can unwind on the furnished deck and soak up the sun during summers, cook BBQ under the shady grapevines and fruit trees, or explore the vibrant scene of Bled, which is just a few minutes away. You can indulge in delicious dining and lively nightlife or immerse yourself in the beauty of Lake Bled and its majestic castle. If you're an outdoor enthusiast, there are world-class fly fishing spots within walking distance, and skiing, golfing, and wine-tasting opportunities just a short drive away.

Great cottage away from busy bled

Lovely spot for relaxing with good road links to visit other parts of the country. Traffic into bled was awful so be prepared but that isn’t the cottages fault!! The rooms worked well. The top additional bed o my suitable for a small adult or child (our son couldn’t fit) but it’s fine. Kitchen is small but well equipped.

Perfect bucolic setting for a wonderful stay

The property was as advertised and the setting even better than imagined. The weather got cooler than it had been and the home was cold. We read that they usually didn’t start the heat until 10/1 so planned to just deal with it. After 2 nights and cool mornings we called Alison and got great info and were encouraged to use the heat ( we didn’t know if it was seasonally off). She even followed up to see if we were comfortable.

Enttäuschend

Ein grundsätzlich reizvolles Haus in guter Ausgangslage für Unternehmungen. Leider sowohl außen (mehrere zerbrochene Fensterscheiben durch Plastikfolie ersetzt, Terasse und Grillplatz dreckig) als innen (Schimmel im Bad und in Deckenlampen, großer Stockfleck im Essbereich, Spinnweben und völlig verstaubter Lampenschirm über dem Esstischim ) mangelhaft gepflegt. Unserer Bitte an die Verwalterin Alison, sich dies und den schmutzigen Zustand der Kücheneinrichtung (Lebensmittelreste an Besteck und Geschirr, Kühlschrank unsauber mit schimmeligen Obstresten, alte Lebensmittelreste in klebrigen Behältnissen etc. ) anzusehen wurde leider nicht nachgekommen. Nach ihrer Aussage sollten wir besser in einer 5 Sterne Unterkunft absteigen, wenn wir mehr Sauberkeit wünschten. Es handele sich schließlich um ein altes Cottage, da sei der Zustand völlig normal. Die Vermieterin selbst (Susan), war freundlich. Sie lebt jedoch im Ausland und kennt den Zustand des Objektes eventuell nicht, da sie nach Aussage der Nachbarn schon mehrere Jahre nicht vor Ort war. Sie hat uns angeboten, die Reinigungspauschale zu erlassen, da wir vor Bezug erst selbst mehrere Stunden putzen mussten. Sie hat sich auch bei uns bedankt, dass wir das Objekt so sauber verlassen haben. Eine Erstattung der Reinigungspauschale ist jedoch bisher nicht erfolgt. Wir denken, dass bei einem Preis von über 300 Euro/Nacht zumindest eine saubere und hygienisch unbedenkliche Unterkunft bereit gestellt werden sollte

Toller Aufenthalt

Wir haben die Zeit in dem schönen Haus sehr genossen. Es hat alles zu bieten, was man für einen erholsamen Aufenthalt braucht. Es sieht alles so aus wie auf den Bildern und die Ausstattung ist super! Uns hat es an nichts gefehlt. Gerne kommen wir wieder. Auch wenn eine Busstation in der Nähe ist, ist die Anreise mit dem Auto empfehlenswert.

Nothing short of spectacular!

Bohinjska Bela is located in a beautiful, quiet valley just outside of Bled, with bus and train service into Bled just down the street from the house. The mornings were filled with the sound of farmers cutting grass, an older man making frequent trips on his small tractor to pick up wood for the winter and the sound of birds in the trees. At night, the stars were amazing! The house was perfectly set up for relaxation, meal making, cleaning clothes and taking in the scenery. We couldn't have asked for more!

Marvellous time at Bohinsjka Bela 117

We stayed with our family of four for two weeks in this charming house of Susan. It is by far the best well equiped house we’ve booked in years. In the garden we had our apero times with a view on the mountains, Nor the roadway nor the train was a problem; Bohinsjka Bela is a charming en very quiet village! We made trips to Piran, the caves, Triglav national park with the soca valley, Lubljana and of course the lakes of Bled and Bohinj. Already missing it …

Schönes Haus in ruhiger Umgebung von Bled

Wir haben den Aufenthalt in dem Haus sehr genossen. Wir haben es genau so vorgefunden, wie beschrieben. Es ist einfach zu finden und der Check-in mittels Schlüsselkasten war super. Das Haus war sehr sauber. Das einzige, was man mit kleinen Kindern ggf. wissen sollte ist, dass das Haus an einer Straße liegt, die zwar nicht viel befahren ist, dafür rasen die Leute aber durch den Ort. Der Garten ist an einer Seite eingezäunt, an der anderen allerdings nicht, sodass man aufpassen muss. Der Grillplatz hinterm Haus ist allerdings ungepflegt und müsste hergerichtet werden.

Lovely house located in a small village

My wife and we stayed for one week in September in this house. It is a lovely house in the village Bohinjska Bela. We got all necessary information on the house in advance by the landlords and the rental agency. The house was very clean and it was well equipped. We did not really miss any items. In front of the house is enough space to park the car safely. As we stayed there not during the prime season but shortly afterwards, the street in front of the house was very quiet. There was the occasional car or bus, but that was all. The railroad was not a problem either. The location of the house in Bohinjska Bela is good for all kinds of trips. The picturesque town Bled is only a short drive by car away. Even better, the beautiful lake Bohinj and the surrounding splendid mountains are less than 30 min by car. We went there several times. Of course, the capital Ljubljana is also not too far away. We even went to Prian at the Mediterranean coast. The house is surrounded by a beautiful garden with lots of apple trees. This was the only drawback of this house so far. During the time of our stay there were plenty of wasps and hornets feasting on these apples. And as there are on very few windows equipped with insects nets you could hardly let the open windows unguarded because the insects permanently wanted to fly inside. Here, the landlords could improve the situation a lot by installing more insect nets.

Stay at Bela Luna

Excellent- well furnished and well supplied with all the requirements for a pleasant stay. Warm and comfortable . Good access to all the places we wished to visit. The local restuarant 3 minutes walk from the house was very welcoming, produced good food and drink at very reasonable prices - excellent value and enjoyable. Loved Slovenia and having Bela Luna to return to at the day's end.

Can't wait to go back

Bela Luna is the perfect home base for exploring Lakes Bled and Bohinj and couldn't be more charming and picturesque. The cottage itself has everything we needed and was so comfortable, we felt conflicted between getting out to explore the area and just relaxing at home. We loved staying in Bohinska Bela village, which was peaceful and beautiful, and then walking to Lake Bled on the footpath (about 45 minutes) and driving to Lake Bohinj. We almost never go back to the same place but we look forward to coming back to Bela Luna.

Spannendes Slowenien

Wir hatten einen tollen ersten Urlaub in Slowenien! Das Haus liegt super praktisch: dicht an Bled dran, aber nicht im Trubel. Von dort aus kann man viele Sehenswürdigkeiten ansteuern und hat auf dem Land seine Ruhe. Das Haus ist super schön renoviert: es ist alles da was man braucht und es war sehr sauber. Die Kommunikation lief wunderbar: wir bekamen immer sehr schnell eine Antwort, wenn Fragen aufgekommen sind. Wir sagen herzlichen Dank und kommen sehr gern wieder!

Smart, clean, beautiful house in gorgeous setting close to lakes Bled and Bohinj.

We especially appreciated the fully equipped kitchen, small but powerful log-burning stove, and bathtub with plenty of hot water. The house feels like someone’s home (despite long list of do’s and don’ts!) Hope to be back as Bohinj especially has so many opportunities for walking and stunning views. Thank you to Susan and her local team for top quality accommodation.

Schönes und sehr gut ausgestattetes Ferienhaus

Wir waren 2 Wochen in diesem sehr geschmackvoll eingerichteten Ferienhaus und können es nur empfehlen. Buchung, Schlüsselübergabe etc., alles hat perfekt funktioniert. Von hier aus sind viele Sehenswürdigkeiten bequem zu erreichen; also ideal für Unternehmungen aber auch für Entspannung auf der sonnigen Terrasse.

Beautifully appointed house in lovely location

The house is gorgeous; so well equipped and comfortable. It has a lovely garden and outside eating deck, where you can gaze on the mountains and hills surrounding it. The village is delightful and there are enough amenities to spend your whole time here, or explore the many delights of Triglav National Park as well as Lakes Bled and Bohinj. Highly recommended.

Deserves SIX stars - Hated to leave this wonderful cottage

Paradise! Everything about this cottage was perfect. It has been beautifully and tastefully renovated to contemporary style, with a well-designed and functional kitchen, gorgeous bathroom with plentiful hot water, and lovely living and sleeping rooms. The location was perfect too: just outside of crowed touristy Bled and easy access to Lake Bohinj. We used it as a base for daily trips to explore Slovenia. It was easy to visit Triglav National Park, Ljubljuna, Piran, Lipica Stud Farm and the Gorinska Brna wine area, all of which were easy to reach on a day's outing, and all of which we highly recommend. The owner is American and very friendly and accessible for questions and advice and there are lots of suggestion in her very thorough guest handbook. One caveat: the cottage has a full bath and a half-bath but both are on the first level. The master bedroom is upstairs and the stairs are steep and narrow --not recommended for middle of the night access to the bathroom. There is a comfortable bedroom on the first floor that can be used if you have mobility issues.

Look no further...

We and another couple had a wonderful 5 night stay at Bela Luna, a very short distance from the bustle of Lake Bled in a lovely rural setting. And well-located for touring in the area. The classic cottage has been updated and is very bright, well-decorated, and well-equipped. We came prepared with recipes and ate dinners at the cottage and lunched out while we toured the area. Also had a very satisfactory dinner at the popular local restaurant in walking distance, arriving just before a big downpour!... As noted in other reviews, the stairs to the second floor are very steep, but our friends (70+) managed OK. The side yard is fenced and with a nice deck, so should be secure for kids, even with the road in front. Traffic was not an issue during our visit. We thoroughly enjoyed Bela Luna and recommend it to those looking for a convenient place away from busy tourist locations.

About the host

Hosted by Susan Kibler

Host profile image
I 'discovered' the amazing country of Slovenia in 2001. Since then, my husband, son and family and friends have enjoyed every moment of our Slovenian vacations. There is so much to do that even after more than 15 years, we still have a list of things we wish to do.

Why they chose this property

We know immediately we wanted to find a property in this amazing country. Bled has always been our favorite location, yet we wanted to have access by good roads to explore the rest of the country. We had a demanding list. We wanted to be very close to Bled, but have privacy and charm. We wanted great views. The mountains in Slovenia have always enchanted us. We wanted a property with a lot of character, that had all the most modern conveniences so that we could live there comfortably.

We instantly fell in love with this home and location. The house itself is over 100 years old. The original owner lived there his entire life. He was a big collector. We have incorporated many or the antiques and items which were left in the house into our interior design. We wanted the house to feel historic, but with a modern edge.

When we purchased it we had to install all systems: water, heating, gas, etc. We used all the most modern equipment. We tried to think of the little things like providing additional space below the sinks for convenience. We worked with a great interior designer and construction firm to completely remake the home.

What makes this property unique

We hope you enjoy the views from our deck, the grill and old fashioned sitting area under the grape vines and the other special spaces this historic cottage offers as much as we do!
