🛖At the address Mohorje 6, in the small village of Rob in southern Slovenia, just a 40-minute drive from Ljubljana, lies something truly special – a former village school built over a century ago, now lovingly transformed into a unique, multifunctional retreat. Under the name ELIAS 2069, the property now offers two spacious apartments, two art studios, a wood workshop, a Finnish sauna, and outdoor areas for relaxation and creativity. 🌳This is not your typical tourist accommodation – it’s a sanctuary for rest, imagination, creation, and deep reconnection with nature. Here you are surrounded by the sounds of the forest, the gentle flow of a stream, and infinite peace. Adjacent to the main house, you’ll find a children’s playground, a permaculture garden, a developing forest labyrinth, an outdoor stage, and a wellness zone in the making. 🌍The property’s location is also exceptional – at the crossroads of two major European hiking trails: E6 (from Finland to Turkey) and E7 (from the Atlantic to the Black Sea). What was once a gathering place for locals is now a refuge for guests from around the world seeking a space to unwind, dream, reflect, and feel alive in the embrace of wild nature. 🧘‍♀️If you're searching for a stay that goes beyond the ordinary – where you wake up to birdsong, fall asleep under the stars, and reconnect with yourself – ELIAS 2069 may be your next destination. Whether you're a family, artist, researcher, or traveler, there is a place here for you.
