Stolac — the Lavender Hillside

StolacEarly–mid April2 nights
The Journal

Two unhurried nights where lavender is pressed against warm limestone and seven thousand years of human presence sit in a single hillside. Reserve the stay and the table; pair it with Trebinje's wine country next door.

Lavandula angustifolia

  1. Arrive

    A stone house above the Bregava, the medieval stećci necropolis within reach.

  2. The table

    A slow lunch, lavender and honey from the hillside on the plate.

  3. Pair it

    Sits naturally between Trebinje's cellars and the bridge at Mostar.

A parting gift

You leave with lavender oil, steam-distilled from the hillsides above the Bregava, chosen for you by your hosts.
