Dimitirs was the most welcoming host, gave us information about different hiking routes and places to eat in the area. I have to say the highlight was the breakfast - absolutely delicious, everything from traditional pies, to cakes and spreads are homemade - and what is not to like when your eggs come straight from the hens they keep in the property would definitely visit again!!
Our room had the most amazing views of the valley and surrounding mountains.
