Romania travel: Cabins and chalets to consider for a weekend getaway or holiday

24 March 2021

Favored because of their beautiful surroundings, cabins and chalets offer smaller-sized accommodation in quiet, remote areas, favored by many during the pandemic. From Scandinavian-inspired designs to refurbished traditional houses, guests can find many options for a late-winter trip or longer stays. We have put together some suggestions in the list below.

Prive Nest

Susenii Bârgăului, Bistrița-Năsăud 

Located close to Bistrița, this property can host six people in its three large bedrooms. Guests can enjoy the quietness that comes with the remote location, and the beautiful landscapes, in addition to exploring the area by bike or hiking. Bistrița, which is 19 km away, is the northernmost Saxon burg in the country and welcomes visitors to a refurbished old town. More info here.
