Go Batty Halloween in TransylvaniaThere's something to be said for mystery—especially when it comes with a royal manor.
Count Tibor Kálnoky isn't the most notorious noble to come out of Transylvania—nor does he bear fangs or suck blood—but his thirteenth-century manor-castle, buried (like a stake) deep in the heart of Romania, offers a classy retreat in the birthplace of a legend. In 2001, the enterprising count opened his twenty-fifth generation family estate to the public, as a luxury hotel that immediately attracted international aristocracy and Euro nobility—including Prince Charles, so charmed that he's now restoring his own Transylvanian hideaway. >From the traditional village of Miklósvár, whose grazing sheep and clattering >wooden carts will bring you back a few centuries, you'll visit Bran Castle >(whence vampire-prince Vlad the Impaler once reigned) or roam the streets >lined with ancient farmhouses and Saxon churches. Back in your Transylvanian >refuge, at the high-end Kálnoky estate, you'll stay in one of the four >renovated farmhouses, outfitted with antique oak and furnished with family >heirlooms; expect a sophisticated restaurant, airport service and from the >cellar tap, locally-made caraway brandy. You'll need something to ward off the chill of the night.
