Welcome to Victoria's house, a hidden gem located in the heart of the Vipava Valley, in the charming historical town of Vipavski Križ. This enchanting hilltop village, rich in history and known for its unique energy and peaceful atmosphere, is the perfect retreat. 🏞️
🏰 First mentioned in the 13th century, Vipavski Križ was granted eternal town rights by Emperor Ferdinand in 1532. Today, it charms visitors with its cobbled streets, blooming windows, stone houses and friendly locals. A walk through the village feels like stepping back in time.
🛏️ Victoria's house is set within the old town walls, accessible through the historic "kalona" gate, and offers breathtaking views of the valley. Inside, you'll find a thoughtfully designed space – natural materials, soft textures, and warm details create a cozy and inviting home-away-from-home.
🍳 The apartment includes a fully equipped kitchen, a comfortable living area, a restful bed and a clean bathroom – all prepared with care for a relaxing stay.
🌿 Here, you will experience peace, authenticity and the special energy that Vipavski Križ has carried for centuries.
I’m a retired grandmother, and hosting guests at Victoria's house brings me joy and purpose. I started this journey after the loss of my son, as a way to stay active, shift my focus and support his family. 🕊️
💛 Meeting new people is my greatest pleasure – every guest brings a new story, a new smile and warmth to our home. I believe in kindness, sincerity and creating a welcoming atmosphere.
👨👩👦 I spend most of my free time with my grandson – we love hiking, cooking, baking, chatting and simply enjoying life. Together with my husband, we tend to our garden, growing vegetables and fruit. I love preserving seasonal produce, while my husband makes essential oils and hydrosols from our homegrown lavender. With the grandkids, we craft fragrant bouquets and lavender sachets.
🌸 We live for simple but meaningful moments – and we’re happy to share that spirit with you. Everything is ready for your stay, and we look forward to making you feel right at home.
Vipavski Križ is a truly special place – full of history, charm and tranquility. 🌺
🏰 Surrounded by stone walls and accessible through three historical gates, the town is crowned by the majestic Attems Castle. It now houses a school and kindergarten, while next to it you’ll find a Capuchin monastery with a historic library, and a cultural center with a café and art exhibitions. Wandering through the cobbled streets, you'll feel the presence of both noble and humble past inhabitants.
🎠 Just below the village is a circular walking path and a children’s playground. Beneath the castle, there's a shaded gathering area perfect for relaxing on warm days.
🏙️ Only 2 km away is Ajdovščina, a lively town where Slovenia’s first government was formed in 1945. Today, it's a modern hub with cinemas, restaurants, patisseries, shops, a library, post office, pharmacy, health center and bank.
🚶♂️ Nature lovers will enjoy the Hubelj spring and Lokar Trail, a beautiful educational path along the river. For recreation, the Police Sports Center offers indoor and outdoor pools, saunas, gym, courts and more. 🏊♀️
