Majerija sells you on the bora wind and the sun - literally. That is how the property describes itself, and it makes sense: this historic house in the upper Vipava Valley is surrounded by vineyards and orchards in a region where Alpine, Mediterranean and Karst influences all collide. That helps explain why the food and wine culture here is so unusually good.
What makes Majerija stand out is that it feels more like a beautifully run food-and-wine address than a standard hotel. The cuisine shifts with the seasons - Mediterranean in warmer months, more Central European in the colder ones - and the house helps guests arrange cellar visits and tastings around the valley. This is a very good place to come hungry.
