Description of the accommodation:
Perhaps you know or may have guessed that in Romania time seems to stand still, that hardly anything is perfect and that sometimes things seem to be incomprehensible. Probably that's what makes the special charm of the country not to forget, of course, the untouched nature.
• CASA NICU • is a former farmhouse in the traditional village Vale, directly at the foot of the Carpathians. The building has been renovated carefully and with attention to detail respecting the traditional style of its builders as well as modern building physics and contemporary living needs.
We are located in the very heart of Romania, in the south of Transylvania next to Sibiu, the European Capital of Culture 1997. The facility consists of three holiday homes that are for rent separately and only as units.
••• CASA CRINA - with a terraced garden for up to 8 people
••• CASA PELU - within a closed yard for up to 6 people
••• CASA NICU - the upper floor of the 120-years-building for 2 people
The property is located on a slope, in the loosly built part of the village with a splendid view on the wooded hills of the Carpathians. Following the creek you will find yourself already in the ascent to the mountain meadows surrounded by healthy mixed forest.

An asphalted road touches the edge of the village, but the majority follows a stone road which runs up high into the remote hills.
Thus traditional structures and true hospitality could be preserved over the course of time. People here are still breeding cattle and poultry, they are working with scythes and are planting potatoes, maize and vegetables for preservation.
If you like the originality of the high places of the world, and if you want to meet the unique view of the mountains and the vastness of the underlying valleys, then this is the right place for you.
Leaving the property and following the creek a few yards, you will find yourself already in the ascent to the mountain meadows surrounded by healthy mixed forest. Once there, you may follow marked trails up into the mountains.
Flora and fauna of the Carpathians are unique in Europe. If you are not careful, you may stumble over lizards or salamanders while the mountain goats are laughing up their sleeves. Lovers of untouched nature will be spoiled for choice.
From Vale it’s just a stone's throw to the Transalpina, with 2.145m highest drivable route over the Carpathians - sometimes above the clouds. Built by the Romans in their war against the Dacians it was reattached by the German Wehrmacht, then fell into oblivion, and presents now one of the most unspoiled mountain regions of Europe.
On the way back most people chose the Valley of Olt, the only north-south passage through the Carpathians. Only those in a real hurry don’t take a brake to enjoy the breathtaking region.
Also the area surrounding Vale has much to offer: 5 lakes around the corner, dozens of wooden sculptures on Mount Santa above the village, open markets with farm products in the plane, Dacian ruins, Saxon church castles and caves, the brine water spas of Ocna ...
... and, of course, the old city of Sibiu with its towers, markets, museums, pubs and restaurants and a very unique, distinguished culture.
Wherever you go in Romania you will experience many amazing things, even things you would never have expected …
