Chalet Elizabeth is a beautiful alpine chalet in the charming village of Govedartsi, Borovets.It is situated in the centre of the village and has lovely views of the surrounding countryside and mountains. It is ideal for anyone looking to enjoy luxurious accommodation in a beautiful setting, whilst being on the doorstep of some of the best skiing in Bulgaria. It is also a wonderful base for a summer holiday, with its hot summer climate and proximity to the lovely Lake Iskar as well as the Rila mountains for walking.
A holiday based in Chalet Elizabeth gives you the best of both worlds. You have easy access to the bustling ski resort of Borovets,but can experience a little more of the local flavour of the country you are visiting in the quiet rural escape that is Govedartsi. Here you will find the real Bulgaria with its friendly people, not to mention all manner of farm animals wandering free around the village. A real spectacle in itself.
The chalet is finished to a high western standard and provides generous, luxury accommodation for eight to nine people. Its oil fired central heating and woodburning stove in the living room make it a cosy retreat after a long day's skiing, whilst its large bright and airy rooms provide a break from the hot summer sun.
There are two bedrooms downstairs, one double, which has its own entrance to the terrace, and one twin.There is also a shower room with toilet. The main feature of the ground floor is the large open plan living room with a well equipped, fully fitted kitchen at one end and a spacious dining area with large dining table and log burning stove at the other.

This features a cosy sitting room leading onto the balcony with stunning views of the Iskar valley.The large, double master bedroom is on this floor as well as a further twin bedroom.

The village of Govedartsi lies at the foot of the Rila Mountains, near the Cherni Iskar River. It is the starting point for many walking/mountain biking routes into the mountains including the famous Seven Rila Lakes. There is a wealth of natural beauty to admire and enjoy and lovely, easier walks for those not so energetic amongst us.The river provides many beautiful spots to enjoy picnics and relax, perhaps doing a little fishing.
10 minutes drive from Govedartsi, on the way to Borovets, is the town of Samokov. This is a typical Bulgarian town with a wealth of real Bulgarian character.It is also considerably cheaper than the tourist resort of Borovets. It has many shops and a fascinating market is held every Monday morning, even in the freezing cold of winter. It has several brand new, large supermarkets stocking everything, which some people may prefer to the smaller shops. Eating out here is incredibly cheap too!
Govedartsi is a short drive from Lake Iskar, a large and impressive expanse of water with its beaches and watersports. There is a lovely outdoor swimming pool, with terraces and gardens for sunbathing, just 10 minutes away on the way to the town of Samokov. There is another outdoor pool in Samokov itself.The golfers in your group might like to try the Ihtiman golf course, also just a short drive away. There are also many natural spas nearby.
Although further away, (approx 90 minutes), the Rila Monastery must not be missed. It is Bulgaria's largest and most famous monastery, founded in 927AD and hidden high in the Rila mountains.There is also a monastery in Samokov which is worth a visit as well as the Bulgarian King's Residence which is in Borovets.
For those who prefer towns and cities, the old Roman town of Plovdiv offers monuments and ruins from the days of the Roman Empire. Sofia, the Bulgarian capital, is widely regarded as the "new Prague". Steeped in history the city is a mecca for shopping.
The resort of Borovets is very lively and colourful. It has a wealth of restaurants and bars all at bargain prices. It is even cheaper outside Borovets. A holiday in Bulgaria is extremely good value for money.
There is an active apres ski scene and some quite unusual "adult" entertainment!
Non-skiers are also catered for with bowling, swimming and fitness facilities based in the larger hotels. Local transport includes horse drawn sleighs which adds to the character of Borovets.
When visiting in winter, Borovets is obviously the place to head for. It is the oldest and most popular mountain resort in Bulgaria, lying at 1350m. It is set in pine woods and provides a variety of ski runs amongst beautiful scenery. All levels of skiers are catered for and it is particularly good for beginners. The skiing facilities have undergone a lot of improvements lately, with new lifts and runs. This is part of the Super Borovets Project, an enormous investment in the area aiming at an Olympics bid for 2014. |

At breakfast time a buffet will be laid out for you including cereals/muesli, yoghurts, fresh and dried fruits,breads and pastries, jam, selection of cold meats/cheeses. Together with orange juice, tea and good coffee, this will set you up for a strenuous day on the slopes.

Later on, when you are rested and refreshed, we will serve you a delicious 3 course evening meal with a wide variety of home cooked dishes to suit all tastes. This will be accompanied by a glass of wine or soft drink. You are welcome to bring in your own alcoholic drinks to supplement this if you wish.
