Weekend getaway near Bucharest
This is a fantastic getaway just over a hour drive from Bucharest. The cottage is beautiful inside and out. It is a wonderful, quiet area close to the the wine region of Bucharest. The staff is attentive and happy to help and the environment is perfect. We loved our stay in this cozy cottage and would highly recommend this to anyone looking for a getaway weekend retreat.

Thanks, Wendy. We very much appreciate your kind review and are pleased that you and your guests had a great experience at Jardine Hills!
Romania is a hidden gem - we loved it. A fascinating combination of interesting history and culture, stunning scenery, and a wonderful climate. Staying at Jardine Hills was the icing on the cake. Bryan and Mimi are the perfect hosts, running 3 boutique villas, set in the middle of their vineyard. The attention to detail was so appreciated, and together with all of the team on site, could not have done more to help.
We can highly recommend booking some tours of the local wineries, and we even managed a horse and cart treck through the Jardine Hills estate. The villas provide a great opportunity to visit Brasov, Bran and Peles Castles, together with a visit to Magura to watch the brown bears in the wild, an utterly magical experience.
Thank you, Bryan and Mimi, for a very wonderful holiday. We will look forward to seeing you next year - can't wait!

Thanks Helen for your kind review. Mimi and I enjoyed getting to know you and your family during your recent stay at Jardine Hills. You were “model guests”, we very much appreciate your positive feedback and are pleased that you enjoyed your stay with us and experiences in Romania generally. We hope you will all come back and visit us again soon!
August 2018 was our 2nd stay at Jardine Hills.
This is a Romanian Gem, set in the wine producing hills in Prahova. This a stunning location.
The attention to detail of cottages is 5 star combining both a sympathetic rustic exterior in keeping with the traditional village cottages of the region, with high end interior design from Italy giving a modern luxurious finish. The infinity pool and jacuzzi are world class with stunning views of the local hills and vine yards. These are all beautifully landscaped and have matured incredibly in just 12 months. The newly built out door BBQ area, which is covered and with running water, service areas offers a fun area to get together in the evening, the small shop on sight offers an excellent selection of locally produced wines from Jardine Hills, the Pinot Noir is very good. This is all enhanced by the low key, friendly and service provided to those staying, They were available night and day for any request we had. We will certainly becoming again in 2019.
