Whether you’re a fan of The Lord of the Rings, looking for an eco-friendly escape, or simply searching for a place where reality feels like fantasy, this enchanting Airbnb is a must-add to your bucket list.


🌿 Built Into the Hills: A Home Beneath the Earth

As you approach the property, you’ll be greeted by a stone path that winds its way through lush green grass and wildflowers. The entrance to the house is framed by natural logs, and the grassy roof blends seamlessly into the surrounding landscape. It truly feels like you’ve stumbled upon a hobbit’s private retreat in the Shire.

The structure is made from natural materials — wood, clay, and stone — giving it a wonderfully earthy feeling. From the outside, it’s picture-perfect. From the inside, it’s warm, welcoming, and full of delightful details.


🛏️ Inside the Hobbit House: Cozy, Creative, and Charming

#Hobbit House

Step inside and you’ll find a beautifully designed interior that stays true to the natural aesthetic. Rounded lines, handcrafted wooden furniture, and warm tones fill the space with comfort and calm.

The kitchen is fully equipped with a sink, stovetop, and fridge — plus charming mugs, plates, and utensils that suit the hobbit theme. The dining area features a custom-made wooden table and chairs with heart-shaped backs, and every detail feels intentional and lovingly made.

There’s a comfortable bed nestled into the wall, ambient lighting, and unique architectural touches everywhere you look. The house may look small from the outside, but it’s surprisingly spacious and perfectly arranged for a romantic getaway or peaceful solo retreat.


🌳 A Place for Nature Lovers and Dreamers

What makes this hobbit house truly special is the connection to nature. Wake up to the sound of birds, breathe in the fresh Slovenian countryside air, and enjoy your morning coffee outside as the sunlight filters through the trees.

You’re surrounded by vineyards, forests, and peaceful walking paths, yet just a short drive from the town of Ljutomer, known for its wine, cycling routes, and local thermal spas.

This stay isn’t about luxury in the modern sense — it’s about simplicity, creativity, and feeling like you’ve stepped into another world. And if you’re looking to disconnect from the digital noise and reconnect with your imagination, this is the perfect place to do it.


🧼 Thoughtfully Designed and Spotlessly Clean

One of the things we loved most during our stay was how clean and well-maintained everything was. The hosts have clearly poured heart and soul into the space, and it shows. From fresh linens to spotless floors and thoughtful little touches, everything felt cared for and welcoming.

There’s also heating for cooler months, and the thick earthen walls keep the inside cool during summer — it’s a smart and sustainable design that adds to the comfort.


📍 How to Get There

The hobbit house is located just outside Ljutomer, a small town in the Pomurje region of Slovenia. It’s about a 2-hour drive from Ljubljana, or roughly 1 hour from Maribor. You’ll want a car to explore the area, but the drive itself is beautiful.

This makes for an ideal stop on a road trip through Slovenia, Austria, or Croatia — or as a destination on its own for a quiet few days away from the busy world.
