Watermill Guesthouse

Our guesthouse takes its name from the watermill located in the courtyard, which is not only a local attraction but also a reminder of the past. The babbling brook, chirping birds, and fresh mountain air guarantee complete relaxation. The guesthouse welcomes its visitors with comfortable rooms, a well-equipped kitchen, and a cosy communal area. Whether you're arriving as a couple, with family, or with friends, you'll find peace and rejuvenation here.

Step away from the everyday hustle and explore the untamed landscapes of Székelyvarság, while in the evenings, you can relax by the brook in a warm wooden hot tub, sipping a drink.

Nestled in the heart of Székelyvarság, surrounded by pine forests, lies the Watermill Guesthouse – a place where the closeness of nature and traditional Székely hospitality meet in perfect harmony. The house, situated by the stream, offers welcoming interiors, a well-tended courtyard, and a tranquil setting for those seeking true relaxation, far from the noise of the city.

In summer, the guesthouse is an ideal starting point for easy hikes and nature walks. Nearby waterfalls, viewpoints, forest trails, and traditional farmsteads offer visitors unique experiences. The babbling brook, birdsong, and fresh mountain air combine to ensure complete relaxation. In the garden, a hot tub, a fire pit, and opportunities for outdoor cooking make summer stays even more enjoyable.

In winter, the snow-covered landscape reveals a different charm: the surrounding hillsides are perfect for skiing, sledging, and winter hiking. The warm interiors of the guesthouse, the cosy glow of the fireplace, the hot bath, and the quiet, snowy courtyard provide the perfect backdrop for a winter retreat. It's an ideal choice for families, couples, or groups of friends seeking tranquillity, nature, and authentic experiences.

The Székelyvarság Watermill Guesthouse offers true rejuvenation in every season – providing a peaceful retreat, active relaxation, and a direct connection to the rhythm of nature.
