Bulgarian Village Homes initially specialised in selling property in the Dobrich Region because that is where we set the business up in 2006. We can advise you about the services and facilities (and in many cases the number of English-speaking residents) in the villages of this part of North Eastern Bulgaria. Darin Stoyanov, born and bred in Dobrich, covers his home region.

Kurt van Els operates in the Razgrad  region, specifically in ever-popular Kostandenets near the municipal town of Tsar Kaloyan, on the Ruse/Varna road. Kurt speaks near fluent Bulgarian (well done!) and as a builder has a wealth of knowledge of this game. He's also built up an envious address book of contacts and knows the good, the bad and the ugly! Also operating nearby, but just over the border in the Targovishte region, are Cara and Mark Barrett who cover the area around their village, Palamartsa, just 5 m NW of Popovo, one of Targovishte's municipal towns. Between Popovo and Veliko Tarnovo, Adele Richards covers this popular and beautiful area. Nearby, in Lyublen, 12 m north of Popovo, is Gemma Stevenson, who also runs a lovely guest house there. See LYURent010.  

Patrick and Galia King joined us in 2007 to look after all your needs in the Pleven Region, whilst Ronnie Cruickshank offers our services in the villages of the ever-popular Veliko Tarnovo Region, with Mirela Velichkova concentrating on the town of VT itself.

Due to our continuing success, we have been joined by further agents.  Snezhana Ognyanova 'mans' our Dupnitsa office and looks after the town and the immediate vacinity.  The team is completed by Mark and Vicky Johnson who run a beautiful guest house and bar (The Yorkie Bar!) in Malomir, Yambol region. They also organise bird watching in Bulgaria. So, if you're a twitcher see Preferred Suppliers on our Home Page for the link.

Dobrich

The Dobrich region is a unique mosaic of natural and archaeological sites of interest. It is also where one of the two major birth migration routes passes – the so-called “Via Pontika”. Near the lakes of Shabla and Durankulak there are law-protected damp areas of international importance. These territories are the most significant winter quarters in Europe for many water birds. Kaliakra Reserve is the only one in Bulgaria which extends over sea area. The furthest northern riparian dense forest on the Black Sea coast in Bulgaria is located in Baltata. Shabla Lake is one of the biggest habitats of water lily and yellow pond-lily (Nuphar lutea) in Bulgaria.

Preserved remnants of ancient Greek colonies and Thracian cultural centers, medieval citadels and ethnographic landmarks are all places of cultural interest. The development of the region was affected by the First National Catastrophe in 1913 (a historical and political term referring to the defeat of Bulgaria in the Second Balkan War) when the territory of Southern Dobrudzha was annexed to Romania. The former summer villas of the Romanian royal family, situated in a beautiful park in Balchik, date back from that period.

There is also an interesting ethnic group with distinctive customs and costumes living in Dobrudzha villages. These are the Gagauz – Bulgarian Christians who speak Gagauz, a language of the Turkic group. They are considered to be of proto-Bulgarian or Kuman origin.

Beach tourism is concentrated mainly in Albena and Rusalka holiday resorts, the towns of Balchik and Kavarna, the village of Kranevo and the camping sites near Shabla. Dobrich Region offers suitable conditions for hunting tourism (four game preserves are located on the territory of the region), business and conference tourism (in Albena and Rusalka), and fangotherapy (in the resorts of Shablenska Tuzla and Balchishka Tuzla).
