Situated in the Goricko National Park in the North East region of Slovenia called Prekmurje, our alpine style three storey cottage offers very comfortable accommodation in a tranquil setting, but just 5km away from Prekmurje’s largest town, Murska Sobota. Vaneca Cottage is just 5km from one of the 5 thermal spas local to us called Terme 3000. This huge leisure complex includes an 18 holes golf course & 22 indoor and outdoor pools of various depths and temperatures. There are slides, saunas, Jacuzzis and various health and beauty treatments available. It's open all year round and is great for all ages. Our cottage is a perfect base to explore the region, by cycling through the many pretty villages, stoping from time to time for a coffee or a well earned beer. Our guests in 2006 thought that our cottage was superb as it gave them the flexibility to explore Slovenia and neighbouring countries Hungary, Austria and Croatia. They also enjoyed relaxing at the cottage taking in the views.
Local activities cycling, fishing, golf, horse riding, mountain biking, swimming, tennis, walking

How to get to us.
The easiest way to reach us from the UK is to fly into the Austrian airport of Graz which is just 75km from your accommodation. (Approx. 1 hour). The low cost airline Ryan Air fly daily from London Stansted and air fares can be booked for as littlie as 0.99p! (Book early for best prices). Cars can be hired and picked up from the airport, however check charges as some charge a premium for taking cars over the border. Another option is that we can arrange transfers to and from the airport as we have a luxury 7-seater air-conditioned mini bus. (€160.00 return per family). We can then arrange for a local Slovenian car rental company to deliver a car to your accommodation from €30 per day including full insurance and all the papers to drive over the borders! The national airline Adria and Easy Jet fly into the capital of Ljubljana. It is approx. a 2.5 hours drive to Prekmurje from the capital. It is also possible to drive from the UK to Prekmurje and would take around 18 hours.
Other Services.
A food shopping service is offered so that you have a ready stocked fridge on arrival. An additional charge of €16 is made for this service plus the cost of your requested shopping. Note that shops close on Sunday at 1.00pm, therefore if you are flying in on a Sunday you won’t be able to get to the shops in time. Group trips: If you don't feel like driving, i.e. feel like a game of golf and a few beers afterwards then we can arrange to take your party of up to 6 adults to and from the venue of your choice in our air-conditioned mini-bus. Price on application. Baby sitting service: If you fancy a meal out without the children we can arrange for a babysitter to watch the children for a couple of hours. The charge is €8 per hour and the sitter will be English speaking. There are bicycles at our cottage that are FREE to use. As we live just 20 minutes from our cottage, help is always available if and when you need us.
Children.
As we have 2 young children ourselves we understand the extra strain involved when travelling with children. Therefore one of our main aims is to provide accommodation that is safe and equipped for children. We provide highchairs (good quality wooden ones); cots with bedding, a baby gate across the kitchen to keep little ones out when cooking; bouncy chairs; play gyms; bed guards; potty’s; toys and games as well as a good selection of kids videos. The road that runs past the cottage is a dead end only going to other cottages, therefore is never busy. We have tested our cottage rigorously by way of our 18 month son who is very 'adventurous'. We think we have created a safe and fun family environment. We feel our accommodation and location is an excellent choice for families with babies, especially in early or late summer when it's not too hot or busy. Again please enquire for details of our own WEB SITE and read the comments left by families with children that visited us in 2006 & 7
Other Activities Wine tasting. Ski resort within one hour drive. Hot air ballooning. Woodland walks (spot the dear & wild boar!)

Vaneca cottage. Hi Ian & Louise: We had a great time in Vaneca. We thought the cottage was very well equipped and had everything you could possibly need whilst on holiday. Every time we opened a draw there was another useful item or game or something! Obviously we didn't use everything but I can imagine that whatever the weather or circumstance there would have been something to do - you seem to have thought of everything. Emily & Charlotte particularly liked all the games and toys in the garden as well as the Fimbles videos. It was great to be able to just let them go out and play knowing they were very safe. We felt that the location of the cottage was excellent. Although it was very rural with beautiful views (particularly great for sitting on the balcony watching thunderstorms that we had after the hot days) Murska Sobota provided all provisions that we needed for a good family holiday Highly recommended!
