Plai cu stele

Plai cu Stele is a charming, family-run campground in Braniștea, Romania, perfect for those who love nature, simplicity, and a touch of off-grid freedom. Nestled in a peaceful meadow surrounded by open skies and close to a quiet river, this small-scale campsite welcomes RVs, campervans, caravans, and tents in a setting that feels far from the busy world.

At Plai cu Stele, you’re invited to slow down and reconnect—with nature, yourself, and the peaceful rhythms of rural life. The site offers spacious pitches where cars are allowed on-site, and campfires are permitted, making it ideal for cozy evenings under the stars. While the facilities are being developed step by step, the heart of the place lies in its authentic charm and the warm welcome from the hosting family.

What makes this place truly special is its living landscape. You’ll share the meadow with badgers, geese, ducks, chickens, and a few sheep, all part of the natural environment. It’s a unique camping experience that brings you close to animals, fresh air, and genuine hospitality.

Although it’s a simple setup without luxury amenities (yet), the owners are hands-on, helpful, and always close by to make your stay enjoyable. If you’re looking for a quiet, pet-friendly camping spot with a rustic vibe and starry skies at night, Plai cu Stele is the place to book. Early reservations are recommended, especially during weekends and summer months.

The beauty of Plai cu Stele is its setting in a serene countryside, yet it’s still within easy reach of essentials. The nearest grocery store is about 7 km away, and the surrounding area offers opportunities for peaceful river walks, wildlife spotting, and picnics in nature.

For those wanting to explore more, the Siret River is close by for fishing or relaxation. The village of Braniștea offers a glimpse into traditional Romanian rural life, and further afield, you’ll find local markets, cultural landmarks, and small eateries within a 20–30 minute drive. It’s a peaceful escape that invites you to unplug and explore slowly.

Plai cu Stele is best suited for travelers who value authenticity and a back-to-basics experience. There is no formal reception, so guests are encouraged to contact the hosts directly before arrival for any details or questions. Dogs are welcome, and guests are free to set up campfires and bring their vehicles onto the pitch.

Because the site is in development, amenities may be limited, so we recommend coming prepared. But if you’re looking for genuine countryside camping in Romania, with space to breathe and a friendly, relaxed atmosphere, this little meadow under the stars is waiting for you.
