- CASA VALE - 6 Carpathian holiday homes for special requirements in Transylvania.
We offer 6 fundamentally different holiday homes in and around the pastoral village of Vale, right at the foot of the Carpathians. Away from the pace and tone of the big cities on the one hand, and just around the corner from Sibiu-Hermannstadt, the European Capital of Culture 2007, on the other. A good choice for lovers of special places who want to spice up their Transylvanian holiday with a touch of the past and a pinch of tradition. It is also ideal for anyone who would rather savour the serenity of unspoilt nature than splash around in the chlorinated pool of a 5-star hotel.
The village nestles on a wooded slope of the Carpathian Mountains with a view of the Transylvanian plateau. With no through traffic, in an absolutely peaceful location and surrounded by the oldest beech forest on the continent. After just a few steps, you will find yourself climbing up to the mountain meadows with their unique flora and fauna. Alternatively, you can benefit from the central location in the heart of Romania for excursions in all directions, for example to the castles and fortified churches of Transylvania.
We are neither traditional private landlords nor trained tourism experts. We live in Vale and work together in a family construction company under whose direction all the holiday homes were built. These include two sophisticated villas, a shepherd's hut in the mountains and two former farms, which we have completely renovated over the course of nine years. Always with attention to detail, with respect for the traditional style of the area, but also with modern building materials and modern living requirements in mind. The result is a meeting of different times and cultures in seven feel-good oases.

- Casa NICU -
The Methuselah among our houses has seen 120 years pass by without being the least bit affected. We have completely renovated it, but left the fabric of the building untouched. The air of times gone by still wafts through the patient walls. The right choice for gourmets who want to flavour their espresso with a pinch of Romanian tradition.
The living rooms are located on the upper floor. A staircase leads up to the hallway, which was added to the house in the traditional style. Both the shower room with WC (2 m²) and the eat-in kitchen (14 m²) lead off from here. The kitchen is fully equipped for self-catering with a fridge, gas cooker, coffee maker and espresso machine, kettle, toaster, spices and a washing machine.
The room (18 m²) is accessible from the kitchen. It is equipped with a double bed, LED TV (on Astra-Sat with German programmes), WLAN and plants. Three windows open up the room with a view of the village church. An extra bed is possible.
On your arrival you will find the bed freshly made, hand and bath towels, soap and shower gel are also provided. The furnishings have been chosen with care and are largely new (2011), including sanitary facilities, kitchen utensils, mattress and linen. The rooms are heated by the tiled stove in the kitchen and an electric infrared panel can be used if required. All heating costs are included.

The pastoral village of Vale lies in the wooded mountains of the Pre-Carpathians. A tarmac road touches the village, but most of it stretches up into the hills on stone paving and tracks. Traditional structures and unpretentious hospitality have largely survived the onslaught of modernity. Sheep, horses and poultry are still part of the village landscape, and the farmers pick up their scythes and plant potatoes, corn and vegetables, which they preserve for the winter.
There is a small shop in the village, other shops, restaurants and an open market in the small town of Saliste, 2 kilometres away. What is missing here can be found in Sibiu (20 km) at the Zibins market, in retail outlets or in supermarkets such as Real, Kaufland or Lidl.
An excursion can take an hour or a day. It can take you to the hillside above the village for a few views of the valley or to the jumping fish in the mountain lake of Gura Raului. You might also be interested in the old town centre of Sibiu, a Saxon fortified church or a day trip along the highest motorway route over the Carpathians, the Transalpina. Many things are possible, here are a few examples:
The Marmelada outdoor pool is just a hill and a 20-minute walk away, as is the first of five lakes in the valley. In 15 minutes you are above the village, pass the Poiana Soarelui (sun glade) with its dozens of hand-carved wooden sculptures on the ascent and after just under two hours you reach the mountain meadows, with a unique view of the expanse of the Transylvanian Plain. A flora and fauna that is considered unique in Europe awaits you here. If you are not careful, you might stumble over lizards or salamanders and the mountain goats will laugh their heads off.
There are opportunities to climb up into the mountains in every village. A gravel road leads from Saliste (2 km) to the Crint high plateau, and from Sibiel (2 km) you walk along the torrent to a remote monastery in the middle of the forest, from where you continue into the mountain meadows. Sibiel is home to Romania's largest icon museum with reverse glass paintings.
Those with a sweet tooth are drawn to the mountain lake near Gura Raiului (12 km). It is fed by several streams and rivers, along which you can hike up into the mountains. The lake lies in a mountain hollow surrounded by forest. The water is clear, and in the evening you can light a fire and watch the fish jump for mosquitoes. The serenity of this place cannot be captured in a picture - but once you've been here, you won't forget it in a hurry.
If you want to go really high, you can choose between two motorable north-south passes over the Carpathians:
--- The Transalpina - at 2,145m the highest motorable route over the Carpathians, sometimes above the clouds. It starts just two villages away from Vale. Created by the Romans during their campaign against the Dacians, it was refortified during the Second World War, fell into oblivion and today presents one of the most unspoilt mountain regions in Europe.
--- The Transfagarasan - past a waterfall dozens of metres high and some steep cliffs. At the top of the pass, the mountain lake Balea Lac awaits you with a hostel and a house made of ice.
In both cases, you reach the southern part of the country, Wallachia, a climate zone characterised by the Mediterranean. The Olt Valley between the two p
