Our story

We found it in 2018. It chose us.

Our story began in 2018, when we discovered this magical spot — a hidden gem between the forest and the mountains. With every glance, every birdsong and every murmur of the creek in the garden, we became sure this was the perfect place to unwind with family and friends.

With plenty of enthusiasm, our own savings and support from Romania’s Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development, we renovated the house and landscaped the garden. Step by step, the place became “Ideal for Holidays!” — hence the name.

“On a street where one of the neighbours is the forest.”

What makes it different

When evening falls, the garden lights up.

Strings of warm bulbs trace the pond, the gazebos and the stone paths. We switch them on every evening — and indoors, above every bed, hangs a tree branch with bulbs on ropes. Light is the signature of the house.

Rooms

Every room has its own landscape on the wall.

Five en-suite rooms, each with its own wall mural — rolling hills, a mountain river, a lake with firs, a flower meadow — and a branch pendant with bulbs. Rates are the same on weekdays and weekends.

Included in the price

The garden is yours.

  • Fishing at the pond

    Sport fishing right in the garden, for beginners and keen anglers alike.

  • Football or tennis

    The sports court next to the house, with the forest at its edge.

    A wooden playhouse, swings, a slide and a trampoline for the little ones.

  • Grill, cauldron & disc

    A roomy gazebo with a barbecue and a hearth for cauldron or disc cooking.

  • Hammocks & swings

    Rest with the mountains in front of you after a day of hiking.
