About this property

Traditional Transylvanian House

La Motica (Motzica= The little woman from Auseni Mountains). Traditional house that we have moved from a Transylvanian village to our property in Sunset Mountains. The first floor is restored in a traditional way and inside the attic we have 3 bedrooms and a library. We have a traditional clay stove but also one modern with gas and one with electricity. Beside the barbecue near the pergola is the place ideal for fun cooking session.

- Situated at the entrance in Sunset Mountains from Transylvania it has a nice pergola with a BBQ

- 10 minutes from Turzii Gorges, 20 minutes from Turda Salt Mine and salt lakes for swimming

- Dracula's Castle from Bran, the medieval citadel of Sighisoara, Brasov and Sibiu reachable in a one day trip with the car

The salt lakes from Turda are waiting for you to swim. You can visit Turda Salt mine, you can hike or climb in Turzii Gorges, visit Scarisoara Glacier, having a traditional meal in one of the country in from "Motilor Land" on the Aries Valey.

The house is situated on a mountains 500 meters away from the road on which traffic is an exception. You can hear the river Aries roaring and you can hear the birds singing in the forest that surround the house.

About the host

Hosted by Todea Family

Host profile image
After more than 20 years in travel industry, having our own travel agency, specialized in Transylvania we decided to live our dream and move a traditional Transylvanian house built in Maramures on a land that we have in Sunset Mountains. The first floor is restored in the traditional Romanian style; in the huge attic there are 4 modern rooms disposed on 2 floors.

Why they chose this property

You will stay in the middle of Transylvania. You can reach in a one day trip Bran Castle (aka Dracula Castle), Brasov, Sibiu and Sighisoara Citadel; in another day you can make a trip to Bistrita and have dinner at Dracula Restaurant from Borgo Pass and make a visit to the Merry Cemetery from Sapanta; another day for a visit in Sunset Mountains to see the Glacier Scarisoara and the Bear Cave and to taste a "Balmosh"; one day for a short trip to Turda to visit the famous Salt Mine and if is hot outside to swim in the salt lakes near by or to ride a horse there. For an adventure you can rent a motorcycle from Turda, book a rafting trip on Aries river, fly over the area with an airplane or rent a 4x4 vehicle to inspect the mountains
