We like our blogs to be on all sorts of different topics that are useful for our guests. For example we’ve written about what to pack for a skiing holiday, what you can do away from the slopes or we go into more details about the different resorts such as Bansko, Borovets and Pamporovo in Bulgaria and Kranjska Gora, Lake Bled and Lake Bohinj in Slovenia.
However, the intention of this blog is unashamedly a ‘salesy’ blog! It’s to encourage you to book your skiing holiday before 23 September, but it’s for a very good reason!
This is because when you book your skiing holiday on or before 23 September you enjoy so many savings,

If your partner is really good looking then it’s not really news when someone says to you ‘your partner is really good looking’ it’s not really news to you but hey, it makes you feel nice all the same! And that’s how we feel about the Ski Resorts in Bulgaria being named as one of Europe’s cheapest ski resorts, we know it, most skiers know it, but we like people to recognise it all the same!
We say all this because Eurochange, the holiday money people at most airports, have named Borovets as Europe’s cheapest ski resort. They compared the cost of things like a lift pass, accommodation, ski
