Our story
Once upon a time, not so long ago, in Lower Carniola among green hills, vineyards, and forests, a quiet idea was born.
Not an idea about a hotel.
Not an idea about apartments.
But an idea about a place where a person could reconnect with nature.
People today are always in a hurry.
From day to day. From task to task.
We forget to listen to the wind in the trees, to watch the morning mist over the meadows, and those small moments when life pauses for a few seconds.
And that is how Glamping Resort Dolenjc was born.
When we first stepped onto the meadow where the glamping cabins now stand, there was nothing there.
Just soil, wind, and a view of trees in the distance.
But even then, we knew one thing:
if we wanted to create something special, the story had to grow together with nature.
That is why we made a decision that today represents the heart of the entire resort.
In front of each cabin, we planted a young tree.
Not just any tree.
But a tree species native to Slovenia. To Dolenjska.
To our landscape. Back then, the small saplings could barely rise from the ground.
Thin branches, a few leaves, and a lot of future ahead. And then we did something else special.
We named each cabin after the tree growing in front of it.
So guests do not just stay in apartment number 4.
They stay in apartment: Tilia.
Under the linden tree. Elsewhere, they are welcomed by Quercus, the mighty oak.
Somewhere else, a gentle birch, an elegant maple, or a calm beech.
Every tree carries its own story. Its own character. Its own energy.
The linden tree has long been a symbol of togetherness and homeliness in Slovenia.
Under linden trees, people once sang, celebrated, and made important decisions.
The oak symbolizes strength and stability.
The birch speaks of new beginnings. The maple of warmth. The beech of peace.
And so, 18 different stories were born. 18 trees. 18 cabins. 18 new beginnings.
But the most beautiful part of this story is yet to come.
The trees will grow year by year together with the glamping resort.
Today, they are still young. Small. Almost shy.
In a few years, their canopies will provide shade for children playing in front of the cabins.
The wind will rustle through their branches while guests drink their morning coffee on the terrace.
And perhaps one day, a family will return to the same cabin where they once spent their holidays as children.
Maybe then they will look out of the window and say:
“Look how big our tree has grown.”
And that is the true essence of Glamping Resort Dolenjc.
It is not just about a holiday. It is about connection.
With nature. With oneself. With time that flows a little more slowly here.
In Dolenjska, nature has never been just a backdrop.
It has always been part of life. And we wanted our guests to feel that too.
That is why in our glamping resort, it is not only trees that grow.
Memories grow too.
