And compared to other European holiday destinations you get a lot more for your money too. Now what can be better than that? You can choose from a range of family-friendly resorts like the appropriately named Golden Sands and Sunny Beach, or go a bit more upmarket with the quieter St Vlas and St Constantine and Elena. All boast accommodation for a range of pocket sizes with an array of restaurants, nightlife and watersports for you to get stuck into.
Further field Bulgaria boasts age-old mountain villages where life carries on as it has for centuries. Stop off here as you explore the country’s many monasteries, Byzantine churches or the Valley of the Thracian Kings, with its royal burial mounds. Of course if you’re here during the winter months Bulgaria’s ski slopes await you. Resorts like Borovets and Bansko are modern, well equipped and much cheaper than their Alpine counterparts. And then there are its cities, which offer up a laid-back take on the traditional weekend break. Will it be the capital Sofia with its outdoor cafe culture, museums and beautiful boulevards, or the pretty seaside city of Varna with its beach bars and youthful exuberance? Whatever holiday you choose to take in Bulgaria you’ll be surprised by the friendliness of the people, the beauty of the place and those prices. Discover the secret now before everyone else does.
Weather conditions in Bulgaria vary from typically Mediterranean along the Black Sea coast to continental further inland. What this means is that you can expect summers to be hot with average temperatures in the capital Sofia, for example, reaching into the high 20s and low 30s. Bring a sweater though as the nights can drop by quite a few degrees, giving a welcome relief from the daytime heat. Winters can be chilly and see many parts of the country covered in a blanket of snow. Perfect for those world-class ski resorts that you’ve been looking at.
