“Having just returned after the most fantastic week in Borovets I would like to extend my thanks and gratitude to both Travel Solutions and NI Travel News for such an amazing prize.
“Everything from start to finish was just brilliant and Hotel Lion was just lovely. The pool and spa made it all the more enjoyable. And the food was remarkable. It was our first time to ski in Bulgaria but it certainly won’t be our last.
“The Travel solutions reps were brilliant and looked after all of their guests so well. They definitely went above and beyond!
“I was also much surprised by the ski equipment that we were given it was top end. Borovets resort was very quaint with a lively apres ski – I recommend the Black Tiger Bar – that was really fun in the afternoons.
“Once again many thanks to everyone involved with my trip. It really was an amazing experience from start to finish.”
