CASA RICO revitalised Carpathian farm in a shepherd's village. Pet-friendly | House in Vale
4 Bedroom House in Saliste, Vale
Casa Rico is our latest jewel, ideal for family holidays and groups. The former farmhouse is located in the hills above the village. The view extends over wooded mountains and down to the plains of Transylvania.
The property consists of a 142-year-old, fully renovated wooden house (2 double rooms, currently available) and a brick house (another 2 double rooms), which we are still working on. Everything will be ready by early June. At that point, you’ll be able to book the entire farm for up to 8 (or even 10) people, and until then, at a special rate.
Between the two houses is a cozy courtyard, partially covered by grapevines, with a south-facing terrace.
The special atmosphere can be felt in every corner. We have awoken slumbering gems from decades of deep sleep with patience and attention to detail, carefully adding modern living aspects that should not be missing. Now this holiday home is a great choice for families with children who prefer to get a taste of the lifestyle of bygone times on their holiday in Romania rather than splashing around in the chlorinated pool of a 5-star hotel.
You enter the old farmhouse via the external hallway and reach the spacious living room with open kitchen, tiled stove and seating for up to 10 people. The kitchen is fully equipped for self-catering with a fridge-freezer, electric cooker, dishwasher, kettle, espresso/coffee machine, toaster and plenty of crockery, spices, soaps, etc. Two dormer windows provide the living room with light and morning sunshine from above.
The two bedrooms are furnished with double beds, antique wardrobes, a table and stools. The shower room features a washing machine and is accessible from the inner hallway.
A staircase leads from the outer hallway to the rustic attic. Here you can relax with a glass of wine and enjoy the impressive view of the village and the sun-drenched surrounding mountains.
On the south-facing terrace in the courtyard, you can sit at two acacia tables or lean against an old wine barrel. At the front of the terrace you will find the second kitchenette, which is just as fully equipped as the kitchen in the wooden house, but with a gas stove. It is based on the traditional way of life in Transylvania, where summer life and work mostly take place outdoors. The second bathroom, located right next to the terrace, follows the same idea.
Fast WiFi is available throughout the farm via fibre optic cable, and each room has an LED television with cable and ASTRA satellite connection. Upon arrival, you will find the beds freshly made and bath, hand and kitchen towels provided.
Hot water is generated by a solar system, and heating is provided by a gas boiler in cooperation with the tiled stove, which supplies a buffer tank via built-in water pipes and, through this, all radiators in the house. The synchronisation of the heat sources runs automatically. All you have to do is set the desired temperature on a room thermostat and not worry about anything else. Firewood is included.
Of course, our optional services also apply here, such as breakfast, traditional menus or farm products from the village. The transfer from Sibiu railway station or airport is included, and on request you can order one of our rental cars, get a cot for your baby and a high chair.
As mentioned, we’re still working on the brick house, so photos will only be available at the end of May. They’ll show two spacious double bedrooms, furnished similarly to those in the old wooden house, a bathroom, and a hallway with an open kitchen. Flowers and grass have been planted or sown in the courtyard, but we enlisted the help of AI to visualize what the vegetation will look like in June.
