Rila Kindergarten

Has anybody used the kindergarten at the Rila this year? We used it last year for a couple of days but weren't really happy with the set up or staff (and neither were our children). Does anyone know if the Samokov still has a kindergarten as I gather that was quite well run last year.

Alistair, we also used the Rila Kindergarten last year and our opinion is the same as yours. We felt guilty about leaving our son there so didn't bother after day 2.

We actually watched them leave her standing on the slope on her own crying because she was scared to ski, no one was reassuring or comforting her. She refused to go back next day.

We actually watched them leave her standing on the slope on her own crying because she was scared to ski, no one was reassuring or comforting her. She refused to go back next day. We have booked with Inghams this year as they have a very good Kindergarten with all English speaking staff, so hopefully she will have a better experience this year.
