The Barn

Location and view

Nothing

Breakfast is good. The hosts are very kind and helpful. The scenery is top!

Wir haben die Tage um den Jahreswechsel hier verbracht. Schon bei Ankunft am frühen Abend waren wir begeistert, die Hütte strahlte beim Öffnen der Tür eine unfassbare Gemütlichkeit aus und war geschmackvoll weihnachtlich geschmückt. Dieser grandiose erste Eindruck wurde in den kommenden Tagen vielfach bestätigt und verstärkt. Ausstattung und Komfort waren nicht zu überbieten, die Gastgeber herzlich, sehr bemüht und stets erreichbar. Das inkludierte Frühstück war ebenso urtümlich wie exklusiv, umfangreich und köstlich. Durch die Fensterfront bot sich uns ein beeindruckendes Bergpanoroma, das sich täglich im neuen Gewand präsentierte. In der Nähe kann man wandern und die herrliche Natur genießen oder das Schloss Bran besuchen, sehr gute Restaurants sind in kurzer Zeit (teilweise sogar fußläufig) erreichbar - die Gastgeber beraten einen auf Wunsch ausführlich. Wir haben wunderschöne Tage im The Barn verbracht und würden jederzeit wiederkommen.

Une maison magnifique, un hôte extraordinaire, et quelle vue ! Nous nous sommes fait copain avec un renard venu nous voir tous les jours. Tout parfait

Probably the most idyllic and luckily (for us) still not fully explored area in the Romanian mountains at cca 1200 m. The cabin is fully equipped with everything you might imagine, and they greet you with home made bread and liquour, as well as with an abundant and tasty breakfast. The fireplace and vinyl player make it all so much cozier. Whatever need or problem you might have, they are answering immediately and are helping out. If you want to enjoy a remote, yet full of soul and vibrant mountain experience - this is the place. Alex is also providing you with useful information on where to take walks, what to visit etc. looking forward to coming back in the summer for trying a horse ride and some more of the great food that Silvia has been so nice to cook and bring to the cabin. 🥰

Location in a very remote valley with peace and quiet and beautiful scenery. Great hiking, a bear sanctuary and Bran castle nearby. There was plenty of kindling and logs for the fire but the chalet was warm and cosy without the fire as it has underfloor heating.

One of the most beautiful holiday locations (if not the most beautiful) in the middle of nature, surrounded by hills, at the foot of Piatra Craiului. Tasteful architecture and design... Extremely pleasant and friendly hosts. Wonderful food with local products. I highly recommend !

The shortness of holiday

A rare and tranquil find! I never knew a place could be so peaceful ………. just sitting there sipping a coffee in the warmth of the morning sun, looking across the tiered valley to the mountains beyond, the silence broken only by the occasionally bee ……… truly magical! The Barn itself is full of character, lovingly planned with many cosy corners, but also with all the creature comforts and facilities you might need. It’s the kind of log barn where I imagine getting snowed in, in the depths of winter, so we’ll have to come back! The hosts were so hospitable, we felt like friends after a few days, but completely on our terms. Their breakfast and dinners were deliciously simple and authentic, made from local produce, a true taste of Transylvania!

Attentions to details and full of caracter
