Hi Tateyheed,
Will be looking at going over in June for a week, and maybe a sneaky weekend in May if any other owners are up for it again.

re: Euro Rate Crown Booths Borovets

in boro at the moment in the booths its 1.9 lev to 1 euro or 2.19 lev to the pound. no one will change your pounds to euros for anything like you can get in england as they see this as a double transaction and will charge you a buy and sell rate. steve.g
