A traditional farmhouse vibe! Modern living with a rustic twist. For lovers of the great outdoors!

PERFECT for family groups or two to three couples seeking the peace and tranquillity of village life, with forest, hillside and riverside walks from the doorstep.

RELAX in a centuries-old, traditional farm house, that oozes character. With the added benefit of having the top facilities of Slovenia’s premier tourist destinations within easy reach!


This house is in a quiet village setting and is therefore not suitable for noisy groups. It is best for families or respectful adults who enjoy forest and hillside walls from the doorstep, wild swimming in the nearby lakes, or simply relaxing in the garden and taking in the magnificent mountain backdrop.


The owners will not be at the house during guest stays.
The Alpine Retreat is sited in a well serviced village, with shop and restaurant / bar. Located beside the church at the heart of the old farming village of Zasip, you will feel at the centre of village comings and goings.

Sat on a ridge with commanding southerly views, and Bled Castle in clear view, you are just a few kilometres from Lake Bled, with all its tourist facilities, yet being in Zasip, on the doorstep of some wonderful countryside, you feel more in touch with the local way of life.

There are some amazing walks nearby, including a circuit to Vintgar Gorge, which is within easy striding distance of the doorstep.
With the exception of the basement boiler room and secure store rooms, guests will have access to the whole house.
The Alpine Retreat is both our second home and a professionally managed holiday rental apartment. For you this means that you can expect to find everything you need for a comfortable stay with the reassurance that help is close at hand should the need arise.
Although there are bus and train services from the village the use of a car, to explore the area's wonders, is recommended.

Surprised
The property was located directly across the street from the barn, which was, unfortunately experiencing VERY strong odor.(liquid manure?) I grew up on a dairy farm and this was something out of the ordinary.

Respite in the country
The quiet offered by this property and the peacefulness of the neighbors was welcomed. We appreciated looking at the castle on the hill at night and were even treated to snow-capped mountains one morning.

Village house
Traditional village house, simply decorated, comfortably furnished and extremely well equipped, good shower, comfortable beds and good bedding etc. Lovely views. In peaceful village of Zasip, away from the tourist throngs in Bled. We enjoyed sitting on the balcony, the good village restaurant, and great walks from the door. Stuart was a great host. House information and recommends all very thorough, so all went very smoothly. Highly recommended as a base for a holiday in the area, which has so much to do we felt we barely scratched the surface - so we'd love to come back.

Great family house not far from the touristic village Bled
Really nice and well maintained and clean house, good located, just a few minutes drive from Bled, nostalgic just besides an old church. The kitchen was well equiped, the beds were very good, nice modern bathroom, the Wifi was very good. Next door there was a really nice old woman, who waved us every day "a good day". The balcony was nice but small, the garden was a good place to be outside, but only accessible by walking around the house. The contact with the owner was very good. He gave us a lot of practical information about the area, several walking tours, restaurants etc. We would like to recommand this house to everyone.

Great property in a perfect location.
The property had everything we needed and kept reasonably cool when the outside temperatures were hot. The balcony was especially nice for breakfast with a view of the village and Bled castle in the distance. The location is also perfect if you have a car. Centrally placed for Lakes Bled and Bohinj, not far from the Vrsic Pass and Triglev National Park, and also plenty of great scenery and walking close to the property. Local food also very good.

Amazing Place to Stay
I spent a few days here visiting friends and have to say it was perfect! The house is so big, there's so much space - it's fantastic. The kitchen was well stocked and the study area with Dvds and books as well as the games selection was a great little touch. Would definitely stay here again!
