Set among the vine-covered hills of Brda, Vila Vipolže is celebrated as the most beautiful Renaissance villa in Slovenia. Over the centuries it welcomed noble families who came to the hills for inspiration; today it hosts artists, gourmets, business gatherings and a great many weddings. In the entrance hall, a permanent exhibition prepared by the Goriški muzej traces the villa’s story from its first mention to the present, with models of how it grew. Stay the night in a renovated superior double or junior suite, and toast the views with Brda wine. The villa holds the Green Key sustainability label.
