First timers plus kids

Planning first ever skiing trip with husband and 3 kiddies (1yr, 4yrs & 7yrs). Thinking of Borovets in March 07. Never been before. Any tips or advice.

Yes, go to Pamparova, its brilliant for first timers and kids, try the Mourgavets Hotel as the family rooms are excellent and your right in the heart of town.early March is best, not to crowded and no long ques at the lifts. Balken Holidays do good deals.

Hi Lisa,
If you're flying from Ireland, I don't think Balkan Holidays deal with Ireland - we've booked through Panorama Holidays & Balkan Tours in the past. I'd also recommend Pamporovo for a family, you'll have a ball!

I'd recommend Borovets over Pamps if you're going with kids. Lots less aggro walking about and getting transfer buses to the ski area. In Borovets, you literaly step out of the hotel into the ski area.

Just thinking of getting Lisas question answered Pete Very Happy
There really is a lot less walking in Borovets.
Dan, I'm not sure if there won't be a spare place because you've booked for couples, and some are on their own ?
