I just got back from a weekend full of wine, spa-ing by soaking in a tub of wine and buying too much Bulgarian pottery.
We left Sofia Saturday morning and drove to Breastovitsa. It was and easy drive from Sofia. Maybe an hour and a half. Not more. In town though we got a little lost and drove through town. I had to ask for directions in Bulgarian a couple of times but luckily everyone was very nice and helpful. The thing is the hotel shouldn’t have actually been that hard to find as it has a huge sign on top of it.
But after a couple of u-turns we ended up right at Todoroff Winery and Spa.
The hotel was wonderful. We engaged in spa treatments and later went on a wine tour and tasting. This was great fun. I also learned a lot. Then I bought not one but three bottles of wine!!
Now I’m off to bed but I promise to write more tomorrow.
I’m imagining that you soaked in red wine, which gave your skin a lovely pink look. However your ever practical MoM thinks that it must have been white wine because red wine is more expensive. I think that I would prefer soaking in expensive wine. dAd
I was there in 2010 and had quite the opposite experience. I had a post about it on my site, but it got deleted. What were your thoughts about he mural of the owners in the reception area?
