Holiday house on the hill
Brad, Hunedoara


With the forest at the back, the property has a special charm to which the location on a hill contributes greatly- the view towards the small town of Brad in the valley is stunning both in late summer, when the meadows are strewn with haystacks, and in winter, when the snow covers the houses, the fields, and forests.

The architecture is typical of the mountain with the solid, stone-hewn ground floor and wooden balconies with cheerful geraniums hanging from the railings. The interior also respects the convention of mountain interior design having the walls clad in wood; their warm and understated hue provides the perfect backdrop for relaxed living. It is a rustic minimalism, dewormed from classic intrusions that slip easily into kitsch. Elegant crocheted curtains and wooden furniture add charm. The inviting kitchen and generous terraces with hammocks make for relaxing afternoons, and in the evening the panorama is magical – the lights of the valley look like fireflies dancing in the night.

On the ground floor are the living room with open kitchen, the toilet and the separate technical room; the first floor has two bedrooms and a bathroom with bathtub and shower and on the second floor there are two bedrooms, one of which has both a double bed and a sofa and space for an extra bed, with access to the 100 sqm balcony that surrounds the building. In addition, there is also a generous storage space of 36m2. On the property there is also a workshop/storage shed for tools, bikes, ATVs (area 16.5 sq m), a 92 sq m terrace with lawn, built-in bathtub for 10 people, relaxation corner with campfire and a summer kitchen covered, with a terrace of about 30 sqm.


The lodge has a camera system with mobile phone access (5 cameras), alarm system, fiber glass internet connection and drinking water connection from the municipal network. One can also reach the cottage from the road using the picturesque wooden stairs.

In addition to guaranteed relaxation on the property, the area also offers the possibility of mountain hiking, mountain bike rides or fishing; skiing can be done in the neighboring county, on the slopes of Alba. In Brad there is an interesting gold museum that documents the history of the mining industry in the area; currently the mines are closed, wood processing being the predominant activity in the region. Some of them can be visited on an organized tour, and the Retezat National Park and the city of Deva with its fortress are not even an hour away.
