Reviews

Lazar 10/10
Bulgaria 🇧🇬

Fantastic stay

Pros: We enjoyed absolutely everything that the guest house offers. The rooms are extremely cozy and clean. When we entered in our room we felt like we are going home- the interior is perfect, with a lot of wood, a really nice library, good lighting and amazing view of the forest across the house. The location is very quiet and you can fully rest. The owners are very friendly and kind people, who made sure we had everything we need for a calm stay in the woods. They prepared for us, and for the rest of the guests vere tasty meals for breakfast and dinner. Their cats and dog make you feel at home. Hands down, this is the best place we have stayed so far. Surely, we will return someday and cuddle with Bertha (their dog) again.

Cons: There isn't anything that I can think of.

A taste of heaven on earth!

Pros: It was literally inside the forest ! The peace , tranquility and just the vibes of this place are absolutely beautiful! Their dog Bertha is an angel on earth - absolute sweetheart! The cat ‘Matsa’ is the boss cat and also very lovable! Nero was my favourite!

Cons: Nothing at all!

Great place for short respite from civilization

Pros: The owners of the place are nice, accommodating people. I had a phone reception and the wi-fi was enough for the rudimentary things like sending messages, but it took some time to send/receive files. My husband was using his paid data to work remotely. Food was very tasty, albeit we are used to bigger portions, especially for breakfast. Thankfully one can order some more food from the menu. We stayed just for a few days, so we were fine with that. It's nice that we were able to have a vegetarian choice of dishes (for the dinner included in the stay) - they were really thoughtfully prepared and tasted great. Sashko is a nice cook! We loved the animals - especially Berta who stole our hearts and who was accompanying us on our daily walks. But all the 4 cats were also wonderful to have around. It's very green, refreshing and cool there during the summer, and one can enjoy walking a lot among the amazing beech forest and along the mountain spring(s).

Cons: As many others mentioned, the road to reach Verbena is difficult (but definitely doable) :) It is a lot of ruts within stones and old asphalt, sometimes it is just stones and hard, clay road (?) - we needed to carefully maneuver using the 1st gear to avoid the bigger stones and deep unevenness (we had a rented Renault Clio 3). We are not much of people persons and shy away from spending time close to others, so it was a bit difficult, as Verbena seems to be a popular destination and there is a limited space at the property to hang around on your own - one will always encounter somebody. For a few days that's ok for us, especially when you can have those nice, long walks outside. Nights were calm and quiet, but the wooden structure of the house made all the morning commotion of other inhabitants very audible and because I am very sensitive to sounds, I couldn't sleep very well (even though I had my earplugs).

Pros: Невероятна локация. Чист въздух, уникална гледка и спокойствие. Домакините са много мили хора, чувствахме се като у дома. Храната винаги е прясно сготвена и много вкусна. Навсякъде е чисто и уютно. Любимата ни част от престоя бяха разходките с Берта, най-доброто и умно куче, което някога сме срещали. Да не забравя да спомена и сладките пухкави котета, които също са много дружелюбни и игриви. Престоят ни там ни зареди с толкова позитивна енергия, нямаме търпение да се видим отново.

Препоръчвам!

Pros: Тихо, спокойно,уютно, управлявано от интелигенти и грижовни стопани. Храна- приготвена с любов и професионализъм и поднесена с усмивка. Безкрайно уважение към гости и домашни любимци!

Cons: Нямам никакви забележки.

Penka et Gueorgue deux hôtes attentifs.

Pros: Tout au bout d'un chemin de pierre on découvre l'habitation. L'éternel sourire et les yeux pétillants de Penka, la bonne cuisine Bulgare de Gueorgue nous donne des regrets de ne rester que deux nuits. Personnes prévenantes, aimables et très disponibles; ce couple restera parmi les personnes dont nous nous souviendront pour nos congés 2025.

Cons: RIEN.

Петров 10/10
Bulgaria 🇧🇬

Pros: Няма нещо, дори и най-малкото такова, което да ни развали впечатлението от този хотел! Даже и достъпността помага за тази оценка. Трудно достъпен, но това не е пречка за хората, които търсят спокойствие, домашна храна и отношение от собствениците! Посред резерват при пълна липса на дразнители те посрещат с широка искрена усмивка и те изпращат едва ли не със сълзи! Единствено наличието на покритие от макар и един мобилен оператор може да те натовари! Пълен релакс и спокойствие! Чист въздух, чиста вода и страхотна храна, сготвена специално за теб! Въобще не сме очаквали да има такъв оазис на спокойствието! Там наистина важи една вече много поставяна табела \

Martin 10/10
Bulgaria 🇧🇬

Чудесно местенце!

Pros: Храната и обслужването, както и чистотата бяха на ниво. Въпреки, че времето беше лошо, останахме доволни от почивката, благодарение на нашите домакини.

Cons: Пътят дотам :) Но това не зависи от собствениците.
