Taking kids skiing to Bulgaria - Advice please!

loungelizard_3

My wife and I are thinking of going skiiing for the first time. We like the look of Bulgaria (Pamporovo) as it seems good for beginners and essentially quite cheap in comparison to the rest of Europe. We quite like the look of Hotel Pamporovo.

We would love to take our children, 5yr old girl and 2yr old boy. However, looking at the websites, nowhere seems to cater for the 2 year old. My girl, 5yrs, can go to ski kindergarten, but nowhere does it mention childcare for my little dude.

Advice required:

1) Would you recommend Bulgaria (Pamporovo).
2) Does anyone know if they do childcare in the resort?

Any advice/tips/rantings/ravings welcome.
Please help!

Borovetz is the best resort for skiing in Bulgaria, it has the most facilities and the most lifts etc

I was there last Xmas and it was pretty good.
Cheap aswell.

Take some dry ski slope lessons before you go. Big help.

Thanks for the tips, I am thinking of doing one of the the one day intensive learn to ski at one of the snowdomes, as well as a couple of trips to teh dry ski slope.

However, I REALLY need to know about childcare in the resort. Obviously if I can't get childcare for my little man I can't go skiiing myself.

Has ANYBODY taken a 2 year old to Bulgaria, how did you manage etc. I phoned BALKAN holidays and they said if I wanted childcare I would have to hire a private nanny. However they could not help me source one and if I did find one, they wouldn't be registered anyway. HELP!!!!!!
