Well it might not be a very good summer, but it is, nevertheless, summer, and this year’s brochures are starting to arrive!

One destination that has grown in popularity over the last number of years is Bulgaria. It is now one of the most sought-after destinations from Ireland.

Bulgaria is known as the “Jewel of the Balkans” and is a country of beautiful, unspoilt scenery, with miles of golden sandy beaches. It is rich in tradition and culture with beachside resorts offering relaxing holidays by the Black Sea followed by great nightlife in bars and restaurants dotted along the coastline.

Situated in South Eastern Europe Bulgaria features ancient cities and picturesque hilltop villages.

Some of the best-known resorts in Bulgaria are featured in brochures from Ireland including Golden Sands, Sunny Beach, Elenite and Albena.

Golden Sands is the largest resort on the northern black sea coast. It is situated in the beautiful natural park - Zlatni Piasaci, home to a variety of wild life and natural springs. This resort boasts rich wooded hills, pale yellow sand and crystal clear warm waters. This is a beach lover’s paradise with a good selection of water sports and a nightlife that gets really busy during the summer months. Some of the hotels are brand new having only opened their doors this year and the facilities should be excellent.

Bulgaria is good value for money with a good variety of hotels on offer, and I would be inclined to encourage costumers to book four star and this will be equivalent to three star accommodation here in Ireland. Some of the attractions in Bulgaria are the great value spa treatments available in many of the hotels. Everything from chocolate massage to wine baths is available and at a fraction of the prices charged in Ireland.

Bulgaria is a great destination and worth visiting at least once, although I suspect you will be tempted to return.
