Good for a few cabins in the woods and appropriate for a night hiking stay.

Jack United States of America

Everything was great, the host is a super nice guy, the dog the cats, the rooms, even the hike to get there was part of an amazing experience. I wish there were more places lie this, hidden in the woods, running in watermill electricity, fresh mushrooms from the forest, and of course the nearby Rila lakes makes it a true gem! All the best with the future plans, respect!

Miki-s Hungary

Very nice location, very calm and amazing view to the mountain. The hosts are top! Food is good too

Ana Bulgaria

It was very cosy. Very romantic. Not very often you can sleep in to the woods. It was very warm. The staff was frendly. The food was very good. It was nothing fancy it was just delicious bulgerian food. The prices were very reasonable.

Nikolay Bulgaria

I stayed at the Lovna hut for four days. So great to wake up in the morning seeing the blue sky over the trees and to know you are out in the forest, already surrounded by nature. I might have camped had I known it was still so warm in September, but my cosy room was appreciated in the evening with electricity from a generator, wifi and even some heating. The caretaker Nikolas is exemplary in welcoming all guests.

Caroline United Kingdom

If you are looking for a place to hike, relax, meet great people, eat good food and live simply for some days, this is the place for you. We spent 3 nights there, with our kids (10,8.4) and would stay more. recommended!

Liat Italy

A great place to disconnect. The hut has a beautiful location and the staff is friendly.

Helena Spain

The location and the hospitality was excellent. Great place to start hiking from :)

Zsofia Hungary
