Description:
This lovingly restored Saxon farmhouses is a charming home with a large terrain in a transylvanian village!
Vacation Rental Description
The „Casa Bierzahn“ is an old saxon farmhouse in the village centre of Cund, which is set in the local tradition between two similar small farmhouses. The terrain backs onto the little path along the little river running through the whole village, and is bordering onto the road to the front. The whole terrain is safely fenced (see below) and all along the length of the house itself there is a magnificent „roof“ of wine casting a most welcome shadow on the lawn from June to October. Towards the back of the terrain you will find a large garden with fresh fruits (tomatoes, peppers, cucumbers, peas, potatoes etc. and a large selection of herbs) which are all at your disposal, a little barn which we partly converted into a large „cabana“ (like an open, but roofed terrace) and a platform with a barbecue grill.
You enter the „Casa Bierzahn“ through some steps in the middle of the house and enter the south facing veranda stretching along the whole front of the house. To your left you will find a fully fitted out kitchen with all modern appliances (4 flame gas cooker & oven, coffee machine, fridge, electric kettle, toaster etc.) and to your right you find little seating area featuring a tradition saxon bench and two large armchairs. From the veranda doors lead two the two bedrooms - one with a double bed, one furnished with two single beds. All furniture is made of carpathian oak by our master carpenter Ferensz and we paid special attention to a coherent design style adapting and interpreting traditional saxon and Romanian designs. The modern bathroom with a shower, WC and a washbasin is accessed through a little corridor of the kitchen area - where you can find your washing machine and a wardrobe.
In a little annex you will find another small bedroom with a bunk bed in what used to be the "summer kitchen". Please note, that this room is only accessed by a seperate entrance from the garden, so you will have to walk (3 meters..) to enter the main house...
The house is heated by a wood fired traditional, fully functional tiled stoves in the bedrooms. By a wide range of small and carefully placed lights and lamps we have secured the right lighting for every atmosphere and naturally we also provide candlesticks and oil lamps....
Facilities
The tiny village Cund in Transilvania is located in the centre of the Carpathians close to the the mediaeval town of Sigisoara, the alleged birthplace of the legendary Count Dracula. The village is still strongly influenced by the traditions & customs of the Saxon community. Authentic and cordial family traditions and customs characterise the simple life of the local population of which most are self sufficient farmers who warmly welcome visitors. The overwhelming beauty and peaceful tranquillity allows room for consideration - without any distracting influences - and are the perfect setting for a holiday where you can relax all your senses. Cund is also an ideal base for exploring the many attractive old towns and cities in Transilvania. Within a radius of 100 km you can visit the old saxon towns of Sibiu (European Cultural Capital 2007), Sighisoara, Medias, Brasov, Bistritza, Agnita, Foggerasch, Regin and Tirgu Mures.

Owner Location Comment
Cund is an enchanting little village, that my father discovered in 1993 and immediately fell in love with. My wife and I decided to move here in 2003 from Hamburg and London, because we were equally intrigued by the authentic charm of rural village life in Transylvania and the overwhelming beauty of the nature surrounding us. We have not regretted doing so a single day! Travel Options
- Nearest Airport : Tirgu Mures at 25 kilometers distance;
- Nearest Train Station : Sighisoara at 30 kilometers distance
- Nearest Town : Sighisoara at 30 kilometers distance
- Travel Info: There are many ways of travelling to Transilvania and we are always happy to offer our experienced advice. We can give you directions should you decide to travel by car, pick you up from the train or bus station in Medias, Sighisoara or Tirgu Mures or pick you up from any of the nearby airports (Tirgu Mures, Sibiu, Cluj Napoca).

Owners Profile
Sustainable rural tourism in a tiny Transylvanian Village!
Our family is living and working mainly in Cund since 1994 and for a few years we are restoring dilapidated old farmhouses. We currently offer accommodation in three self-catering farmhouses, two Guesthouses with seven apartments and a small Restaurant at the Valea Verde.
For years we have dedicated ourselves to the preservation of this village, which is very special to us - a place, where traditional and natural concepts are transparent and where there is room for reflection & relaxation. The encounters between guests and local community are not only a cultural enrichment (for all..), it also constitutes a true contribution to the development of this village.
Sensitive rural tourism offers a perspective for the young people to remain in their home communities and creates qualified workplaces. In addition to this, we are actively involved though our registered charity to further the education of children and preserving the rich gifts of nature.
Experience the authentic hospitality of a Transilvanian village, find a „home away from home“ in lovingly restored and tastefully furnished old farmhouses set in a breathtaking natural environment and find out more about he exciting and diverse history and culture of this country!
We also offer a wide range of special recreational activities: our well educated riding horse offer an excellent means of exploring the beautiful fields, valleys and hills on a horseback! Should you be interested in crafts, our master carpenter would love to welcome you in his workshops and for those interested in painting & sketching, Theobald Fuchs is offering art classes. We also offer cycling tours with our quality bikes.
As a German tour-operator states : „The true Romania can be found best in the villages“ We share this view and would like to warmly invite you to visit us in in the tiny transilvanian village Cund!
