    While the traditional artefacts ( very refined selection, beautifully displayed) give character to the house, the modern facilities give it comfort. Great garden. Peaceful & enjoyable!

Property information

Retreat to a 19th century hut, with everything you need out of the 21st. An old house and an old barn, both from 1895, restored, modernized and brought to life in 2022 in Marginimea Sibiului at Fantanele-Cacova/Krebsbach, a village with a little over 100 inhabitants down the Sura Hill. Sleep in one of the 4 bedrooms (2 with private bathroom and 2 with shared bathroom) or in the hybrid room on the extendable sofa filled with recycled fibres. Socialize in the common dining area at the dinner table prepared by you or your friends in our old kitchen technologically equipped with contemporary appliances. Play scrabble, mime, cards or whatever you like in our spacious living room, light a fire in the fireplace, put some music and pour yourself a glass of wine. Go out for a coffee on the bench in the sun or at the table in the orchard, pick a fruit from the tree, let the children enjoy nature, prepare a barbecue or wrap yourself in a blanket in the evening by the fire. Reminisce about your grandparents' house and your origins, admiring the carefully restored and exhibited collection of pieces in the museum area. In the evening after a walk, heat up the sauna and the outdoor jacuzzi, take the robe prepared for you and pamper yourself with a detoxification session and some bubbles in the hot tub. All in a concept where we combined traditional with modern amenities and where we believe you don't need anything else either. Apart from the food, of course, which we invite you to prepare individually in the kitchen fully equipped with state-of-the-art appliances and traditional old furniture. Or, if you want to be served with food, you have Sibiel at 3km, Orlat at 6km, Sibiu at 19km and even Paltinis at 27km to try out local dishes. A walk and a siesta do suit diversity. Anyhow, you’ll hardly wait to return to our "accommodation" and to our peace. Re-treat yourself! Take a step back in history, aware of the present. Combine a mental spa with a spa in sauna and hot tub.

Neighbourhood information

Country life in beautiful Transylvania? For us at The Hut Retreat it means: - peace, as long as you choose to keep it - fruits eaten directly from the tree (of course, when season is proper and they are ripe) - mountains and hills in the immediate vicinity - country roads as far as your eyes can see for: walking, cycling, hiking (of course, with prior route checks and appropriate equipment) - the smell of old wood and the reminders of grandparents' house (or the Village Museum for those who grew up in the city) - evenings by the fire (in our case, indoor fireplace or the fireplace in the orchard) Along with modern and relaxing options such as: - sauna for 8 people - steaming outdoor jacuzzi (must have with a glass of Prosecco) - outdoor barbecue and dining area along with silent music - children's playground (we are working on it)
