Flowers at the window of the Home & Garden house

A HOME IN OLTENIA. A STOP ALONG YOUR WAY.

Closer to nature.
Closer to home.

A family home in southern Oltenia, with welcoming rooms, space for your tent in the garden and home-cooked meals prepared by Lumi.

A stop for those who travel slowly, discover places and people, and want to feel at home, even if only for one night.

WELCOME TO HOME & GARDEN

A family home, with its gate open to the world.

Home & Garden is, above all, our family home in Călărași, Dolj. Here, Lumi and Flori welcome travellers from Romania and all over the world, many arriving by bicycle on their journey along the Danube.

Over time, people who arrived as guests left feeling part of the family. That is how Home & Garden grew: a living Oltenian household, with a garden, home-cooked food and a gate open to people.

FROM LUMI’S KITCHEN

Breakfast and dinner, just like home

“At Home & Garden, we don’t have a menu. We have whatever Lumi cooked today.”

The seasons, the garden and family recipes decide the menu.

Perhaps cabbage rolls. Perhaps stuffed peppers. Perhaps flatbread baked in a cauldron.

One thing is certain: it will be home-cooked food, made with patience and heart.

Breakfast and dinner are available on request.

Breakfast
10 € / person
Dinner
15 € / person

Welcome home.

Homemade flatbread ready for baking

It is not a race. We ride at a relaxed pace and adapt the route to the group.
