Stador is a simple mountain pasture for simple people. For those who love life, good company, and nature. For those who like to spend their days being active, or by getting cozy and reading a book. It is a place for those who like to eat well and want their food to be locally produced.
nature = life
The tourism in Soča Valley is blooming. The Stador mountain pasture is also part of this development. The Stador holiday house came to be with an idea to offer accommodation that makes visitors aware of the sustainable lifestyle. We wish that anyone who visits us becomes aware of the importance of a safe and healthy living environment. Not only for our generation but also for those who come after us.
Due to climate changes, being self-sufficient in water, energy, and food is becoming increasingly important. Holiday house Stador obtains solar energy by means of photovoltaics. For heating, there are two wood stoves in the house. It has its own water source and there are plans for rainwater harvesting in the future.
for us and for the next generations
The house, formerly known as the Stador mountain hut, was built in the 1960s. For some time, it served as a stop for all passers-by, but was eventually closed for quite some time.
During the first lockdown of 2020, we rolled up our sleeves and began renovating it. We removed everything that seemed unnecessary and stripped the house to the bare walls. Bearing in mind how problematic it is to generate excessive amount of waste, we wanted to avoid it as much as possible.
At the same time, we wanted to show that it is possible to preserve the environment even during construction. We kept anything we thought could be useful, such as the original floor.Wooden wall coverings were refreshed and repainted. We also kept and repainted the interior doors. Part of the equipment was restored and the wooden planks from the roof became shelves. We made some of the furniture ourselves. The layout remained as it was in the beginning.
Today, the house does not serve as a mountain hut, but its purpose is still offering a retreat for those who love nature and life.
