Earth house holiday rentals in Carpathian Mountains

Dejan was available the entire time and answered any questions we had. The cottage is just like the pictures, great for true nature lovers, as well as someone who wants an out-of-town adventure! Any recommendations!

Our trip to Codrul Alb's hobbit house was quite simply magical. We were expecting the location to be stunning and the hobbit house to be endearing, and this is exactly what we found. What we were not expecting and came as a great surprise were the hosts' knowledge and willingness to share it about permaculture, ways of working with and respecting nature, edible and medicinal plants, as well as different ways of using these plants. I was impressed with their way of living and would love to see a community developing around their embodied ideas, whether online or off. The location is remote but we received detailed instructions at arrival. We took a hike through the country side, filled our lungs with fresh air, our souls with the splendid mountainside scenery and our bellies with local berries. We also tasted interesting berries and plants on the hosts' land. At night, we saw the starlit sky and slept like babies. We'll be sure to come back to this piece of heaven :)

An amazing jewel waiting to be found. Not only is the place authentic and picturesque but the villagers and the host herself were at all times friendly and helpful. We even got to eat at a local home and see some folk dances and listen to live music! The only drawback - having to leave...

We spent one night in hobbit house 2, it was very clean and cozy with a lovely fireplace. The garden around the cabin has been beautifully and creatively built by Badea! The host was super helpful and always quick to respond. There's a great parking spot about 250m from the cabin but it's better to arrive in daylight so you can spot the cabins from the path. Helpful to have a torch/light in winter in case the solar powered generator has run out of battery. We definitely recommend!

A fantastic place to disconnect from the routine and connect with nature, very nice views, a dream house.

At Alex cottage and farm I felt like turning back on time almost 40 years ago when I was spending my holidays at my grandparents house. There is a lot to learn on how we can reuse things that already have ended their lifecycle of primary use/destination and I would gladly return to those surroundings and really have a meaningful conversation with Alex, Alin or Andrada. I booked the cottage for the weekend, after a stressful week at work and amazingly I missed all these good conversations as I was able to sleep more than 14 hours almost uninterrupted. It has given me back the energy I need for the following weeks of work. It is a personal record for me. Surroundings are peaceful and quite, the walk in the Forrest with my 2 best friends - a black labrador and a Jack russel was sunny, serene, so you can practice there anytime mindfulness. Alex's dogs has opened the path for this nice 2 hours walk. Highly recommend for those who want to escape from the daily hussle of life. Thank you, Alex

We had a unic stay at Maria’s hobbit heart house , great view , all the place is an art , we love 💕 it , also Maria was helpful polite and there about whatever we need. The place is amazing.

In short, and not to repeat previous reviews (which are all spot-on), Alex's place is simply magical. Located in beautiful and serene nature, the house and the converted barn are simply amazing. Tastefully decorated with lots of Romanian traditional artifacts, they boast with artful arrangements. We're a family of four and had an amazing time. We found the amenities well thought-after, every detail was carefully designed, we appreciated the warm and cosy atmosphere, the old clay oven, the available wood for bbq and for warming up around the evening fire, the sitting area in the converted barn, even the traditional plates and mugs. Needless to say, and to compliment the above, Alex is a great, responsive host. Very highly recommended!

It's the perfect choice for those who want to hide away from the noises and hardships of everyday life. I can only recommend it.
