It lies south of the A2 motorway from Ljubljana to Zagreb and north of the Krka River. The area was traditionally part of Lower Carniola. It is now included with the rest of the municipality in the Lower Sava Statistical Region.[2] Its territory includes the hamlet of Globelo southeast of the main settlement, with a hunting lodge that was known as Globelj (German: Globelhof).[3]

The name of the settlement was changed from Pristava to Pristava pri Leskovcu in 1953.[4]
