Lovingly renovated single story spacious country cottage. Families A++
Our traditional single story cottage with modern facilities has been renovated to a very high standard with families and couples in mind. The cottage consists of two bedrooms that sleeps 6, a large kitchen / dining room, a family bathroom, a relaxing living room, a games room (table tennis, electronic darts, air hockey) a terrace BBQ area with fantastic views and plenty of enclosed outdoor space (great for kids) that includes over 100 fruit trees and wine producing vines. The kitchen / dining room is defiantly the heart of the house. The large dining table seats 10, and there is a traditional Hungarian bread oven / heater in the corner of the room. Slovenia is all about the great out-doors and to help you take full advantage we provide cycles for you to use. We are a British family and live just 25 mins. from our holiday cottage in Fokovci and we look forward to welcoming you.

Situated in the Goricko National Park in the North East region of Slovenia called Prekmurje, our single storey cottage offers very comfortable accommodation in a tranquil setting, but just 15km away from Prekmurje’s largest town, Murska Sobota. Fokovci village is just 8km from one of the 5 thermal spas local to us called Terme 3000. This huge leisure complex includes an 18 hole 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 & is great for all ages. Our cottage is a perfect base to explore the region, by cycling through the many pretty villages, stopping 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 Hungary, Austria and Croatia. They also enjoyed relaxing at the cottage taking in the views from the BBQ terrace.
Local activities swimming, tennis, walking, cycling, fishing, horse riding, golf, mountain biking

Travel details
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. 5 hour). The low cost airline Ryan Air fly daily from London Stansted and air fares can be booked for as little 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. (70 Euro one way). 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 wont 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.
For children
As we have two 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; bouncy chairs; play gyms; bed guards; potty’s; toys and games as well as a good selection of kids videos and DVD's. Outside there are more toys as well as swings and a large enclosed trampoline! There is also a sand pit and during the hot summer we erect a large paddling pool. In the kitchen cupboards you will find plastic crockery, knives and forks as well as a bottle steriliser. We have tested the accommodation rigorously by way of our 2 year old son who is very 'adventurous'. We think we have created a safe and fun family environment. We feel our accommodation and location are an excellent choice for families with babies, especially in early or late summer when it's not too hot or busy.
Other Activities Lots of lovely food and wine tasting!

Fokovci cottage
Lou & Ian. Back to the rain and work, we miss our lovely cottage already! We couldn’t believe the renovation of the cottage. When we booked it the pictures of diggers and workmen was daunting however we trusted Louise's emails when she said that it would be ready for our visit. Its was much more than we expected. The kids loved picking the plums off the fruit trees, (what are you going to do with all those apples?)and the trampoline and paddling pool was an unexpected surprise. We loved our BBQ's on the terrace over looking the valley, in some ways this was our favourite bit of the holiday. I actually got to read a full book during this holiday as the children were so happy making dens in the garden. The bikes are a great idea and again were unexpected, we had looked at hiring them before we came but to have them at the cottage and for free was great. We wish you every success. Laura, Guy, Jamie & Claire Pickers
