Klavže 28 — Hotel in Tolmin

My toddlers and I have travelled many places within the states and across the world, and this is easily one of the most beautiful, unique, enchanting and memorable places (and accommodations!) we have ever had the pleasure of experiencing. If you value nature, quiet, and culture, and something off the beaten path, Klavže 28 is absolutely worth the trip!! The two guest houses are architecturally stunning and charming, the rooms thoughtfully appointed, and the grounds hard to beat. The large communal kitchen and living spaces make it feel like summer camp or a family reunion with friends and strangers alike, and the owners/ hosts, John and Sarah, are all-around awesome people who we enjoyed getting to know. Plus my kids adored playing with their toddler and baby! The epically grand lawn, surrounded by towering, lush, green forest was incredibly beautiful and relaxing, and my kids couldn’t stay away from the cool creek for thrilling river dips on either end of the property. We also did an awesome day trip to Lake Bled, catching the train just a 5 minute walk up the driveway. The nearby town offers some delightful dining options and stunning views, but our favorite thing to do was just stay on the property and explore, play games, roast marshmallows around the bonfire, and watch the skies change throughout the day. We can’t wait to go back!! Highly, highly recommended this trip for any nature lovers and curious travelers. An...

I, my wife and 3 young children stayed in the loft suite for a week and all of us thoroughly enjoyed our time. The suite was spacious and comfortable with picturesque views of the valley the property is nestled in. The buildings, are rustic in appearance, but the longer you spend time at Klavze you realize the whole experience is a curated work of art. This is not for someone who expects to be a sleek modern soulless environment that works perfectly. Everything has its quirks, but it is because of this that it is so charming. The hosts were incredibly responsive, welcoming, and gave us great tips of what to do during our stay.||Surprisingly the property was conveniently located, whether it be a quick 3 minute walk on the property for a quick afternoon dip in the river, or the 7 minute walk down the driveway to the train station for a day trip to lake Bled. We enjoyed our host John’s recommendation to check out the local beach across from the train station where we grabbed a few pizzas and had a picnic while the kids splashed around. We had a rental car and drove 10 minutes to the idyllic village of Most Na Soci, 25 minutes to Tolmin gorge national park, and around 2 hours to the capital. We felt like we did Slovenia right, and kids are still...

Thank you to Sarah, John and Rok for a lovely stay at Klavze 28 last September! They were incredibly warm and welcoming hosts, going above and beyond to accommodate our (and our toddler’s) needs. Breakfasts are delicious, coming from local farms and purveyors. Also learned about some of the many delicious local wineries from John and got to taste some wines on property.

The rooms and indoor spaces are rustic and warm with unique, modern flourishes throughout. The outdoor space is truly magical with trails to the river, various outdoor seating areas, colorful wildflowers and wild animal sightings (including chamois just a few yards from us). It was great to just walk around and explore the property; however, the Klavze team also had many recommendations for and connections to other local adventures ranging from high end dining and wine tasting to fly fishing, hiking and extreme sports.

Klavze 28 was the most memorable stay on our trip (Slovenia and northern Croatia) for its combination of comfort, wonder and natural beauty. It is a place to hope to return to and have already personally recommended to families...
