Holiday rentals: Self-catering apartments and houses to rent for holidays in Romania

Romania is another Eastern European country with beaches and resorts on the Black Sea. It's probably better known as the home of Dracula or Vlad the Impaler in Transylvania. Visit castles and ruins associated with Dracula in this mountainous and craggy part of Romania.

Beyond the myths, Romania is a large fertile country with splendid rural scenery, beautiful buildings such as the Peles Royal Castle and frescoed monasteries, medieval towns and cities with impressive squares, narrow cobble stoned streets and lanes full of character. The roads are quieter and suited to cycling or walking holidays.

Rent self-catering accommodation for bird watching holidays in Romania

The River Danube flows through Romania before flowing into the Black Sea. The wetlands of the Delta (second largest delta in the world) are home to hundreds of species of birds and fish - great destination for bird watchers. There is a maze of lakes and channels in the delta through the sand dunes and reed beds. You can take a cruise on the Danube to view birds and also stop for discovery and cultural tours and scenic walks at various towns along it.

The legacy of Ceausescu in the capital, Bucharest, attracts people wanting to view the incredible glamour and wealth of Parliament Palace (above, also formerly known as People’s Palace); the second biggest building in the world after the Pentagon.
