Nestled in the foothills of the Pohorje Mountains, Gozdna (or Forest) Villa Mari is the epitome of modern eco-friendly accommodation, and is also especially suitable for families, with programmes, workshops and play areas for children (and even in-house babysitters if mom and dad need a break). Opened in June 2011, the building and apartments themselves are beautifully designed, and the spa facilities are a welcome addition in both winter and summer.
