Vineyard cottage Rataj 2 is located on Trška Gora, above Novo mesto. The balcony offers a beautiful view of the city, the ancient Gorjanci mountains and the Dolenjska Fields. The cottage can accommodate three people and is equipped with air conditioning, microwave, fridge, dishwasher, washing machine TV and Wi-Fi. Heating is combined electric and air conditioning. The lower part is furnished with an ancient room with a brick fireplace and a table for small company. In the renovation, we tried to breathe soul into the cottage, using mostly antique and local materials: solid wood, stone and old bricks. There is a summer kitchen with a fireplace for baking, a small table and a special feature of the cottage: a hot tub where you can relax and enjoy the view of Novo mesto. You can also pamper yourself in the infrared sauna. Guests can use the bath barrel to relax in 36 degrees hot water. We charge 60,00 EUR for filling the bath with water and for providing firewood to heat the barrel. In the immediate vicinity there is also a tourist cottage Rataj 1 for four persons, which is very suitable for a group of friends. Despite their proximity, the two houses maintain their intimacy.
