You need to head for Samakov and Borovets is up the road from there. You can see the slopes by the time you get there but Sofia is about 1 hours drive away so lots of potential to get lost - sorry!
No help otherwise!!
See if you can download some directions before heading off from UK. There are several routefinder sites that cover Europe. If I remember rightly the postal address for the whole of ...

I found this on the Balkan Tourist/Borosport site which might help:
By car: If you choose to travel by car you have to take the following rout: Sofia – Gorublyane – Pancharevo – Samokov - Borovets. The resort offers enough parking spots. The largest guarded parking is situated by the entrance to the resort. The Rila and Samokov hotels also have parking areas guarded round the clock. The smaller hotels have parking space too.
Trust me the Bulgarian language bears absolutely NO resemblence to English. The first year we went and were staying in the Yagoda Village so self cateringish!! We bought mayonnaise instead of margarine - not very tasty on your toast first thing in the morning!!
I hope this helps!

re: Neil Directions to Borovets??
That's a good idea Neil! You may need them!You do pass through some interesting countryside on your way. The kids liked looking at the men fishing on the frozen lakes.
Enjoy and hope you make it before it's time to come home again!!
