Tucked away in the untouched charm of Őrség, Hungary—abbaziacountryclub is where nature, elegance, and quiet luxury meet. A retreat designed for slow mornings, forest walks, and evenings in the sauna. Timeless. Authentic. Just the way we like it. 📍Nemesnép, right at the crossroads of Hungary and Slovenia 🛶 Spa, trails, local cuisine—and yes, it’s dog-friendly. #AbbaziaCountryClub #ŐrségRetreat #HiddenHungary #CountrysideEscape #EuropeanGetaway #RuralLuxury #SlowTravel #Nemesnép #collab
