About this cottage rental
Located only 100km (1.5 hours' drive) northeast of Bucharest, the compound consists of on-site parking and three self-catering cottages arrayed around a heated edgeless swimming pool and jacuzzi. We also offer an outdoor gas barbeque/kitchen area for outdoor food preparation and dining.
We are located halfway between Ploiesti and Buzau in the heart of the lovely and scenic Dealu Mare (the "Big Hills") region of Romania, which is famous for its vineyards and wineries.
The cottages are well appointed with underfloor heating, wood burning stoves, air to air heat pump/cooling systems, thermopane windows and 55" inch UHD televisions with fiber optic internet connection. Fully equipped kitchens and full bathrooms (with bathtub/shower) are available in each cottage. Two of the cottages (the Feteasca Neagra and the Merlot cottages) have two bedrooms with an attic and half bath upstairs which may be used as a third bedroom. The third cottage (the Pinot Noir cottage) has a large master bedroom with living area and loft with half bath upstairs which may be used as a second bedroom.
Lidl and Penny Market are only 9km away in Mizil, (as well as a local farmers market for fresh produce), for all of your provisioning needs. We are located close to a number of famous Romanian wineries including Tohani, Budureasca and Lacerta The traditional restaurant at Ferma Dacilor is also nearby.
Jardine Hills has been eco-certified by the Romanian Green Building Council.

Wow! What a Gem!
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!

Jardine Hills an oasis in Prahova Romania
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.
