Alpine Echoes of Cozo Fantu

Maximum 2 pets/ dogs allowed. • COZO FANTU • This former shepherds hut in the alpine meadows provides only basic convenience, but lots of fresh mountain air for stressed lungs. A spring originates only a stone’s throw away, the trees hang heavy with cherries and you can get cheese or milk from the shepherd next door. The cabin consists of a small terrace, a kitchen and a bedroom with a large pedestal bed that comfortably accommodates four people. Facilities include pots and pans, plenty of blankets, hand and dish towels, kerosene lamps, a gas bottle with cooker, a grill, washing bowl and bucket, water cans, wood and an ax, toilet paper, dish soap and a sponge, soap, matches, salt and sugar. Cooking is done either with the gas burner, on the stove in the kitchen, or on the fire pit in front of the hut. • Trade sockets for kerosene lamps. • Trade the fridge for a cool basement. • Trade the WC for an outhouse. • Trade the shower for washing with spring water. The cottage is located 5 km above the village of Fantanele and about 20 km from Sibiu. It is accessible by foot or by mountain bike, but you will not find it without a guide. Usually, our caretaker Nicu leads you there. In the horse-drawn cart this will take 2 to 3 hours. Food supplies are available in the shops or at the marketplace in the small town Saliste. Once at the cabin, Nicu prepares a traditional shepherd’s stew in the kettle over an open fire, if desired. If you arrive by car, you can park it comfortably on our enclosed plot in Vale. In case of travelling by train or by plane, we are happy to pick you up in Sibiu (no charges). At your request, we can provide a rental car or bikes for you. Interim supplies with groceries or a mobile phone with a Romanian card are also available. Mobile reception at the cottage itself is bad, but a little further up the hill your phone will find the signal. High meadows, forested mountains and the vastness of the valleys, as far as the eye can see: wooden huts and shelters, sheep, cows and horses. This is a great starting point for hikes to the mountain lake at Gura Raului and further up into the Cindrel Mountains. Or simply lie down on a hillside, chew on a blade of grass and let the thoughts drift... 2 rooms for 4 peopleBasement, barn, spring, outhouseStove, gas cooker, kerosene lamps, kitchen equipmentLarge platform bed, blankets, pillowsAvailable from April 1. to October 20.Surcharge from 5 people / petSurcharge for common ascent and descent by horse-drawn cart or Jeep obligatoryTransfer from Sibiu airport or train station included______________________________________________________________________ Short description Other : Non-smoking house Short description 1 Number of kitchens : 1 Other rooms : Barn, cellar, outhouse Kitchen 1 Other kitchen equipment : Wood stove, gas stove, pots and pans, dish towels, dish soap, buckets and wash-bowl, Detergent and sponge, soap, matches, sugar, salt, pepper and spices, oil, candles, toilet paper, napkins, plastic wrap, pouches and bags, aluminum foil.
