    Copsamare

    Posted by JoMR 22 February 2010

    Sibiu, while attractive, is actually the largest town in the area. To get a real feel for the region you must stay at Copsamare Guesthouses in Copsamare, two km from Biertan (UNESCO Site) and 45 from Sibiu. This charming guesthouse opened last year and has a combo that's hard to find in this region: good clean service in a B&B that has been built fully respecting local traditions of handicraft and architecture. By staying there you are also contributing to the revival of building techniques handed down through generations of local craftsmen which had almost died out under Ceaucescu. It's also a great spot to relax while walking to other villages in the area, each one has a fortified church with a different unique feature, the door in Biertan, the icon in Malancrav and the sprawling museum in Mosna. The guesthouse is very well run, a welcome relief in Romania, and each guest feels well cared for. Indulge in delicious meals made with homegrown vegetables guilt-free as then you can walk them off in the rolling hills between the villages.
