Slovenia is one of those places that deserves to be better known, but which retains its slow-paced charm precisely because it isn’t.
Part of this is down to our hazy grasp of middle European geography. We’re aware that Slovenia is vaguely Balkan, but probably couldn’t locate it on a map. You’ll find it wedged below Austria, to the east of Venice and Trieste, west of Hungary and just above Croatia. As a result, Slovenia is a cultural mash-up of Italy, Germany and a touch of the Austro-Hungarian, but somehow manages to remain distinctive. It’s got a bit of Adriatic coastline, ski-worthy mountains, a ton of history, amazingly picturesque towns and villages with names that look like a particularly poor set of scrabble tiles, and a whole lot of forests. It’s also a great spa destination and perfect for those who want to explore the great outdoors.

Snow Fun
Head outdoors with the kids for some fun in the snow this winter. Building a snowman in the garden, a full-on snowball fight or sledging down the nearest hill can provide hours of fun. If you’d rather stay on piste, then head for either Glenshee or the Lecht, assuming the roads are open.
