The holiday apartment is ideally suited for singles and couples. It is located at the very edge of the village, and the only passing traffic consists of one or two horse-drawn carts bringing in hay from the neighboring hills. Expect custom-made furnishings, spotless cleanliness, and a calming view of the valley and wooded mountains. During the 4-year construction period, we had time and fun with the creative design of details.
The one-room apartment (28 m²) is located on the ground floor of the main house Casa Zollo and has a separate entrance, its own terrace, kitchen, and bathroom. The furnishings include a double bed, LED TV (with German channels), Wi-Fi internet, and a kitchenette. This is fully equipped with a refrigerator, gas stove, coffee maker, toaster, kettle, spices, and plenty of dishes. Upon your arrival, you will find the bed freshly made. An extra bed for a 3rd person is available at an additional cost.
The separate bathroom features a washing machine, toilet, washbasin, and shower. Hand and bath towels, shower gel, and soap are provided.
The furnishings are of high quality and carefully selected, including sanitary facilities, kitchen appliances, mattress, and linens. All furniture, doors, and windows were custom-made.

••• Transylvania •••
… is the land of the legendary places, the churches, castles, fortresses and monasteries. Only a few are known, such as the Dracula Castle in Bran, the Sphinx Megalith in the Bucegi Mountains or Sarmizegetusa, the capital of the ancient Dacian culture. But they are found everywhere: sometimes as a quiet gem on the edge of the road, as a monumental fortress on the safe rock, but also as a hand-adorned token of love to craftsmanship in a monastery in the forest. An overview of all these eye-catchers would overload this page, but you'll find more on our homepage • •.
A trip can take you an hour or a day. Here are some examples for sights and tours in the area:
The open-air Marmelada swimming pool is just across the hill 20 walking minutes away, and so are five lakes in the valley. In 15 minutes you leave the village below you, passing dozens of hand-carved wooden sculptures in the Poiana Soarelui (sunny glade) on your ascent, to arrive at the mountain meadows and enjoy a unique view across the vastness of the Transylvanian Plain. In good weather, you get sweeping views to the mountain range beyond Sibiu.
The neighbor village of Sibiel hosts Romania’s most important museum for icons with reverse glass painting. From here, you walk along a wild stream to a secluded monastery in the midst of the forest, and further up into the mountains.
Connoisseurs are attracted to the mountain lake at Gura Raiului (13 km). It lies in a depression. The water is clear and in the evening, you can light a fire and watch the fish jump for mosquitoes. Anyone visiting this place won’t easily forget it.
If you are aiming really high, you can choose between two north-south passes across the Carpathians, both to visit in a day trip:
• The Transfagarasan – winding past steep rocks and a waterfall dozens of meters high. On the top of the pass, ‘Balea Lake’ awaits you with a hostel and the house of ice.
• The Transalpina – at the highest trafficable road across the Carpathians, sometimes even towers above the clouds. Created by the Romans in their campaign against the Dacians, she was rebuilt during World War II, then forgotten, and today winds through one of the few untouched mountain regions in Europe. The Transalpina starts at Saliste, just 2 km from Vale.
Via both routes you arrive at the southern part of the country, in Walachia, and make your way back through the Olt valley, the only north-south route through the Carpathians, passing ancient monasteries and some steep cliffs. Whoever doesn’t stop here must be in a real hurry.
When you’ve had enough of mountains and steep slopes, turn to the valley. The countryside is spotted with ancient fortified churches built by the Transylvanian Saxons up to 800 years ago.
One of their medieval cities, the European Capital of Culture Sibiu, lies just around the corner and to this day is a fountain of cultural diversity. The medieval fortifications embrace the old town with its historic alleys and restaurants, cafés and bars, some of them set in vaulted cellars or courtyards. During the summer, the town opens up to its visitors and regularly organizes events, ranging from cabaret and theater through open-air concerts to exhibitions of local crafts guilds.
The traditional village museum ASTRA on the outskirts of Sibiu also merits one or two glances: century-old log cabins, water mills, blacksmith shops and saw mills from all over the country were reconstructed true to the original.
From here it’s just a stone’s throw to the fortified church of Cisnadioara, established in the 13th century and one of the oldest Saxon buildings in Transylvania. It stands on an almost circular mountain top above the village.
After walking for hours you will feel your legs. In the saltwater lakes and spas of Ocna Sibiului (25 km away) you can soothe your aching bones in brine, stretch out in saltwater reading the newspaper, and then coat yourself in mud. The way back leads you past Cristian. Here, another fortified church gives you an impression of how centuries ago, people barricaded themselves against Mongols, Turks and Kuruc irregulars.
If you choose to delve deeper into the history of Romania you will hear about the Dacians. Similar to the Celts in Ireland, they are famous for their mystical traditions and particular skills. Even today the faithful flock to their places of worship, only ruins of which have survived.
The last Dacians are said to have taken refuge in the ‘Muntii Apuseni’ (40 km away), a sparsely populated region on the western border of Transylvania. Today however, this area is known for caves and abandoned mine tunnels, some of which run hundreds of meters through rock. Skeletons of dinosaurs and other prehistoric monsters are found in their depths even today. Early birds can explore this area on a day trip.
No matter which way you turn, you’ll experience amazing things - usually things you never expexted.

Annette from Saarbrücken
gladly again
Everything was perfect here. The shuttle from the airport, the rental car, but above all: a beautiful, well-maintained accommodation with the unique possibility of being entertained with the best Romanian food. And a top location, from where you can do everything (shopping, hiking, just relaxing in the garden), ... and much more

We are already the 2nd time in Romania and have already made in some houses of the landlords holiday and we just have to say it are all super great and always clean.... everything you need is there and even if something is empty, all the staff are very reliable and get it as quickly as possible.... in romania there is a lot worth seeing which you can experience, we also did that during our 2nd stay but romania is big and we still have a lot to do so we just booked our 3rd holiday... 1000 stars for you, you deserve them...

super
Everything was fine. Service on the part of the landlord, starting with the transfer and pick-up after the breakdown with the bicycle, as well as the furnishings and comfort of the holiday home could not have been better. The location in Vale is quiet, central and a good starting point for day trips to Transylvanian-Saxon fortified churches in the Sibiu-Sighisoara region. We drove approx. 1900 km with the rental Dacia, got to know the country and its people from different backgrounds and advise anyone who prefers a somewhat different holiday away from mass tourism to visit this country while it can still show a hint of its originality.

Recreation factor super !
If you are looking for peace and quiet, this is the place for you. A cosy and functionally furnished holiday flat. We had already booked a rental car in advance through the nice landlord Werner, with which our host then picked us up from the airport in Sibiu. The on-site support by Werner and Nicu was excellent. We covered 1500 km in our rented Passat during the 10 days. Whether Transalpina, Sibiu, Hunedoara, Brasov, Biertan etc., everything was beautiful, the castles, the landscape, the small Carpathian villages with their people and animals and last but not least the wonderful horse-drawn carriage ride with Nicu and his little son into the mountains. Transylvania is definitely worth a trip!!!
Answer from Mr. W. Konnert:
Danke Katrin, dein Lob erwärmt das Herz. Ihr seid ein gutes Beispiel dafür, daß man in nur 10 Tagen alle Himmelsrichtungen erkunden und sich trotzdem dabei erholen kann. Glückauf, Werner

Holiday Apartment Romania / Vale Mr Konnert
We were looking for a week's holiday and found it. The holiday flat is very cosy and lovingly furnished, is very quiet and offers everything you need. The service provided by Mr Konnert and his team was very good and trouble-free. This was our first holiday in Romania and we will be back.
