Cherry Orchard is an immaculately renovated, spacious, comfortable 3 bedroom house with garden and wonderful views over vineyards, orchards and rolling hills, topped with charming old stone villages. The house is located in the heart of Slovenia's Tuscany - the stunning Goriska Brda wine region, a known gem between Nova Gorica and the Soca Valley on the border with the Italian Friuli region. The house is in walking distance to Smartno one of the region's most appealing historic small towns. The space Cherry Orchard House is beautifully renovated holiday home, finished with fantastic attention to detail to create an authentic Goriska Brda country house with exposed beams, stone window frames, traditional doors and shutters and oak flooring throughout. Offering very spacious, comfortable and high quality accommodation for up to 9 guests in three bedrooms, the owners have embraced "upside down living" with main bedrooms downstairs and main living areas upstairs to maximise the wonderful views. The downstairs entrance hall leads to a large on ensuite double bedroom on one side and a comfortable ensuite guest suite on the other with huge bathroom. There is also a utility room and stairs down to the wine cellar and up to the first floor. At the top of the stairs opens a delightful spacious open plan living room wrapped with a balcony to enjoy the views. The kitchen is fitted to the highest standard with a huge kitchen island allowing cooking whilst socialising. Facing the kitchen a lovely old long dining table comfortably sits 10 people. On the other side of the room a large L shaped sofa faces the woodburner for taking the chill off Winter evenings. TV and wifi are available too. On this floor is also a third spacious bathroom offering double sink, bathtub and shower and as with all the bathrooms is equipped to a very high standard. Adjoining this bathroom is a fantastic kids room with 2 double handmade bunk beds and a single day bed (which pulls out to create a double if required). A huge wooden gate closes off the house from the road to create a wonderful private terrace in front of the house, shaded by mature cherry trees (whose fruit you are welcome to pick if you are lucky enough to be staying when they are in season). This leads to a larger terrace at the far end of the house, centred around a lovely old fig tree, where an outside table and chairs are located and the lovely views of the region open up. This area is connected to the upstairs living room by a walkway and balcony, giving easy access form the living area to the terrace and the extensive garden which stretches out beyond here - a lovely space for relaxing in the sun and enjoying the views and with a climbing frame available for kids to play on.
