The officially rated 4* apartment and house are new and are nicely furnished and fitted with modern kitchens and bathrooms. The apartment has one double bedroom and another bedroom with bunk beds. There is also a sofa bed in the lounge. Both the lounge and dining area have seating for six people, with windows providing views over the surrounding countryside. The balcony faces the vineyard and has sun from late morning until sunset. There is also a private garden. The house is terraced with three bedrooms upstairs similarly well furnished. One bedroom has a double bed, the second has two singles and the third has bunk beds. The garden has views to the vineyard on one side and woods on the other. Both properties have allocated parking for two cars and the location is child friendly as it is virtually traffic free.

Location: Styria in Slovenia

Nearest Airport : Graz at 50 Kilometres
Nearest Train : Maribor at 7 Kilometres
Car: not necessary
The properties are located in a quiet rural location in the village of Limbus overlooked by a vineyard but within striking distance of Maribor, Slovenia's second largest city with all the usual city attractions. In fact it is the best of both worlds as it is situated on wine road (vinska cesta) No 17 with 5 official vineyards within walking distance but a 10 minutes bus ride takes you in to the centre of Maribor. Conversely a short 5 minute drive will bring you to Slovenia's largest ski slope and home to the most popular women's world cup slalom race - the Golden Fox. There is something of interest for everyone. Within 5 minutes walk of the apartment you will find absolutely all you need whilst on holiday - a couple of fine but inexpensive restaurants, bakery, supermarket, butchers, coffee shop etc. The thermal spa complex at the Habakuk hotel is at the base of the ski slope and two golf courses are within 30 minutes drive. There is something of interest for everyone.

Styria holiday apartment rental rating 55/5
Idyllic!
Tuffty  Thatcham, Berkshire
Review Submitted: April 9, 2009 Date of Stay: April 2009
My boyfriend and I have just returned from a wonderful 5 day stay in Geraint's appartment! I had high expectations as my boyfriend has stayed there before but my expectations were exceeded. The appartment is very comfortable, well equipped and with everything you could wish for. It certainly deserves the 4 star rating. The location of the appartment is superb - moments away from fantastic walks, vineyards, local supermarkets, restaurants and a couple of bars. The ski resort at Radvanje is well worth a visit even in the Spring/Summer. The cable cars still runs and cyling down from the mountain where there was still 4 ft of snow was great! (Geraint makes 3 good quality mountain bikes available for the guests). Cycling along the River Dravi is very easy and a pleasant way to travel to Maribor. A taxi for a night out in the city costs EUR10 each way but is well worth it. I had the best holiday in a very long time and I am looking forward to going back! Karen, West Berkshire
Owner's Response: Karen,
What can I say, I think you kindly said it all and I am really pleased that it exceeded your expectations.
In case any business people are looking for a hotel alternative there is also free internet access and an office style working area. Hope you come back soon. Geraint

Skiing in Slovenia
LucyJack  London
Review Submitted: July 27, 2008 Date of Stay: February 2008
I took my family to Slovenia for our first skiing trip together in February of this year, we stayed at Geraint's 2 bedroom apartment which comfortably looked after our needs after a hard days skiing. The apartment was extremely well maintained, clean throughout with excellent local restaurants which all had a good choice of menu for both adults and young children. The apartment had good tourist information which helped with our sightseeing activities so all in all a very successful first trip. I would have no hesitation in recommending the apartment to family or friends as they will not be disaapointed. Our second trip to the apartment is already booked for early next year.
Owner's Response: Thank you for your feedback. The local restaurants being only about half the price an Uk equivalent makes eating in hardly worthwhile. We look forward to welcoming you back in the coming ski season Geraint

WE SIMPLY HAD TO RETURN !
GERYCAPEL  Wales
Review Submitted: June 29, 2008 Date of Stay: April 2008
In Sept.2007 we spent 3 weeks in Geraint's apartment in Limbus, near Maribor - such was our satisfaction we returned for a further 3 weeks in April/May 2008. There were undoubted highlights during our first visit - (a) we joined the locals on a days' grape picking in nearby Meranovo - our payment ? - we were provided with an excellent breakfast on the farm followed some 5 hours later by a sumptuous dinner washed down with a never ending supply of their own wine. (b) we spent a morning on an organized rafting trip on the river Drava with a hot meal as part of the "package".
During both our visits we did not hire a car as we could get around so easily and cheaply via the REGULAR local bus service into Maribor bus/train stations - from there the world is your oyster. A return 2 hour train journey to the capital Ljubljana - thro' beautiful countryside - is a must as is a visit to Ptuj.Those who are hooked on shopping, put Maribor's Europark on your list! From a first floor viewing area, be sure to take in "Maribor across the river Drava".
We could continue singing the praises of this beautiful, safe and friendly country. Its May Day celebrations - in practically every village - are worth being part of. The Oasa party - just 50 metres from the apartment was hilarious with so much to eat and drink.
THE ICING ON THE CAKE ? As ours was an extended stay on both occasions we were able to negotiate very favourable letting terms - THANK YOU GERAINT.
ELLIS and CATHERINE.
Owner's Response: Always very happy to see repeat customers which tells us we must be doing something right! Hope to see you again very soon Geraint

A holiday to remember

Review Submitted: March 25, 2008 Date of Stay: August 2007
I was extreamly impressed with the quality of the apartment for the price, myself and a couple of friends found we had a comfortable and enjoyable time with an on-call taxi service and friendly people. Thanks for a great time.
Owner's Response: Very glad you found the apartment comfortable and good value for money. Introducing Tequila to a few people locally went down well by all accounts. Hope to see you soon back in Slovenia Regards Geraint

Lasting memorys
happy bunnies  Yorkshire U.K.
Review Submitted: March 24, 2008 Date of Stay: June 2007
We stayed in the 2 bed roomed apartment in June 07. It was everything the broucher said bright modern and user friendly. We spent 2 very pleasant weeks there; if a slow life revolving around a wine growing area is for you, this is the place to stay. Surprised at how hot it was.

Limbus is a 10 min. walk down a slight incline, passing lovely houses with flower filled gardens and pots. As with all villages the pub is the hub of the community, from coffee time to sun downers there is a friendly welcome. Good prices too.

There is a small supermarket, butchers, cafes, restaurants, wine cellar and private houses selling eggs and home grown vegetables. A neighbour, Frank took Roy mushroom picking at some unearthly hour of the morning, but it made a lovely risotto.

A clean, cheap, regular bus service will take you into Maribor. From the coach station there, most towns are accessible. We didn’t have a car so quickly learned how to get around.

Must see places.
The ski resort of Pohorje. Great for walking, cycling, eating and people watching. Weekends are best, for this is when everyone heads there to participate in all sorts of activities.
Maribor. The wine cellar, but book your visit on line in advance. Shopping, eating walking.etc.
Ptuje. What a surprise that was, beautiful and quaint. A fab.castle, meandering narrow streets and river walks. We even played golf there.

Jelka will meet you on arrival .She, you will find out very quickly is a lovely lady and Geraint’s girl Friday. A fountain of local knowledge, partially on vine yards and wines. I think she may have sampled them all. Poor girl has suffered for her art.

The stars of Slovenia are its people and will be the lasting memory we take with us.
Owner's Response: You both were talk of the local tourist association for some time after your stay as you went out of your way to mix with local people. The wine trip to Bela Krajina was obviously a trip not to be missed - didn't realise you spoke such good Slovene or maybe it was the wine! We all look forward to your next trip. Regards Geraint
