Ribno Luxury Cabins, Bled, Slovenia

· free ski bus stop outside the hotel (you'll need to prebook your space on the ski bus yourself from the second day of your stay) · 45 minutes’ bus ride to the Kranjska Gora ski area · 45 minutes’ bus ride to the Vogel ski area · 6 minutes' drive to the centre of Bled · free hotel-run shuttle bus to the centre of Bled one night per week

Please note: If you're renting equipment or booking lessons during your visit, you must visit Kranjska Gora on your first day of skiing, as this is where the rental and ski school will be located.

This will be one to remember. A stay in one of these cosy cabins will be a totally new approach to a ski holiday for many – each named for a native flower and bursting with charm, they're just right if you’re looking for maximum cuteness and character. Ribno Luxury Cabins is also Slovenia’s first zero-waste hotel, if things weren’t wholesome enough already.

Slovenian spruce interiors and some cheery, warm colours give the cabins high scores on the cosiness scale – they’re also well insulated and heated, with modern bathrooms too, so you’ll have no problem getting toasty and comfy when you’re back from the slopes. To make doubly sure though, you’ve even got your own private sauna and hot tub. So straight away, you can kick off your boots and step right in for a relaxing dip.

You’re not quite in Bled itself here – Ribno’a about a 6-minute drive from the resort centre, so if you’re bed and breakfasting or fancy heading out for après fun, a quick taxi into town might be in order. Ski days involve a bit of travel too. The ski bus stops right outside the hotel next door and will whisk you off to the mountains, but be sure to reserve your seat in advance. It’s worth remembering as well that, if you’re booking equipment or lessons for while you’re here, Kranjska Gora will be your first port of call when it’s time to ski.
