Bulgaria: Brits’ favourite summer holiday destination

SofiaEcho, *with excerpts, March 11, 2008

Bulgaria is the best value-for-money summer holiday destinations for UK citizens, according to this year’s Best Value Breaks survey by Teletext Holidays and reported by the British newspaper The Sun. The country ranks highly because of cheap flights and accommodation. Morocco was the second best destination.

The beer is cheap and you will spend less money in Bulgaria than in Spain, the newspaper said. Food is also cheap. The quality of hotel offers, the climate and the beautiful scenery are the other main factors that put Bulgaria at the top of the rankings, according to the paper.

Although, the number of British visitors to Bulgaria is still significant, their interest in the country has recently plummeted. SAT’s surveys, which are carried out on a regular basis, have registered the decrease. It is too early to say, though, whether it is just a temporary fluctuation or a more long-term trend.
