Le Hobbit Abrite Dealul Verde, Une Retraite Unique Au Cœur De La Transylvanie

At the foot of the Făgăraș Mountains, in Porumbacu de Sus, Dealul Verde is a distinctive hospitality property set across 5,000 sqm of land. The estate comprises eight themed guest rooms, a lounge, sauna, heated outdoor tubs and dedicated relaxation areas. Its Hobbit-style houses, shaped by curved volumes and organic forms, blend naturally into the landscape and give the property a sense of magic that is especially appealing for nature escapes and families travelling with children.

The architecture moves away from rigid lines and conventional geometry, a direction that continues throughout the interiors. Each of the eight rooms, the Artist’s Room, the Agriculturalist’s Room, the Farmer’s Room, the Blacksmith’s Room, Dorel’s Room, the Carpenter’s Room, the Weaver’s Room and the Traditional Room, has been individually designed with custom-made furniture, reinterpreted objects and numerous handcrafted details.

Paintbrushes and canvases, timber, wrought iron, old tools, references to traditional crafts and authentic decorative pieces are incorporated into both the furniture and the interiors. The Traditional Room preserves some of the property’s most personal elements, including a woven shawl approximately 120 years old and a traditional rug inherited within the family, introducing genuine objects with a history of their own.

The property also includes a lounge, indoor fireplace, outdoor fire pit, sauna and heated tubs, while the guest rooms are fully equipped for current hospitality use. Amenities include parking, Wi-Fi, televisions, refrigerators and a dedicated pillow menu with several comfort options. Dealul Verde is also pet-friendly.

Location is one of the property’s strongest assets. Porumbacu de Sus lies directly beneath the Făgăraș Mountains, with access to hiking routes in the Negoiu area and towards Șerbota Waterfall. Castelul de Lut Valea Zânelor and Povestea Calendarului are nearby, while the Transfăgărășan, Bâlea Lake and Avrig further broaden the region’s tourism appeal.

Sibiu is approximately 40 km away, placing Dealul Verde within easy reach of one of Romania’s most important cultural and tourism destinations. Beyond the city, Southern Transylvania opens onto Saxon villages, fortified churches, historic towns and Carpathian landscapes that attract both international visitors and a strong domestic tourism market.

Transylvania enjoys a level of international recognition that is rare for an Eastern European destination, yet its appeal is equally strong within Romania. For domestic travellers, the region remains one of the country’s preferred choices for escapes into nature, rural tourism, local gastronomy and experiences connected to traditional life. Internationally, its visibility continues to grow through its heritage, Carpathian scenery and the distinctive character of its villages.

Dealul Verde is particularly well positioned within this landscape. Its concept is already established and immediately recognizable, the eight guest rooms allow the existing hospitality operation to continue, while the 5,000 sqm of land offer scope for expanding the experience through retreats, wellness programs, outdoor activities, private events or exclusive-use stays.

This exceptional hospitality opportunity is set within one of Eastern Europe’s most recognizable and attractive destinations, with the Făgăraș Mountains in the immediate vicinity and Sibiu less than an hour away. Dealul Verde has strong potential to further establish itself as a boutique destination and to continue benefiting from the growing international and domestic interest in Transylvania.
