Set in the beautiful Rhodope mountains of Southern Bulgaria, 4SR is in the mountain paradise of Momchilovtsi. The village is situated an hour and a half from Plovdiv airport, and three and a half hours from Sofia airport. A newly added benefit is the recently opened border into Greece with the Aegean Sea drivable in a couple of hours.
4SR has a magical setting, nestled in the slopes of Momchilovtsi with spectacular views that look straight down the valley, across the mountain tops to Greece. These views are afforded from all the balconies, and from the outside terrace.

Food & Local Cuisine:
Bulgarian cuisine is a mixture of Greek, Turkish and Slavonic influences. We sample many traditional specialities including ‘smilyanski fasul’, a delicious bean soup and ‘patatnik’, a local delicacy made with grated potatoes, onions, milk, cheese and seasoned with mint. Eggs and cheese are a staple part of the local cuisine, in particular 'sirene' a local feta-type cheese.
The unique hospitality of the local people, who are very friendly and helpful and the delicious local cuisine, attract many of those who have decided to spend a holiday in Momchilovtsi and the Rhodopi Mountains.
Shops can be found on almost every street in the village. They are small but sell almost everything. There is an abundance of fresh seasonal fruit, salad and vegetables in the shops and also in the market which is located in the centre of the village.
Local Churches and Places of Interest to visit in Momchilovtsi
The religion in the village is Christian Orthodox and it is surrounded by 24 churches all of different ages and sizes. They are open 24 hours a day and each one is maintained by the families of the village.
The churches are centres for celebrations, contemplation and a booklet is being printed to show the location and walks linking them. On the two highest points of the village there are two crosses aproximately 10' high which are lit up at night to protect the village from harm.
In the centre of the village is a large, very old Church. They also provide interesting places to walk to and sit by to view the surrounding areas and the village (Image: St Elena and St Konstantin Church in Momchilovtsi Centre)

While the nature lover has more than enough opportunities to explore the region to his heart's content, the more adventurous visitor will be amazed at what Bulgaria's mountains have to offer, and will certainly find that he simply won't have the time to try all that is on offer.
These activities and excursions include nature activity and rambles, trekking, paint-balling, horse riding, Hot springs spa therapy, Trigrad and the Devil’s Cave, trips to the Observatory, The Seven Wonderful Bridges and much more

Winter Activities in and around Momchilovtsi - Bulgaria's mountain regions offer an excellent opportunity for either nature-oriented or activity holidays. Although maybe lacking the height and excitement of Mount Everest, the vastness of the Grand Canyon and the impenetrable unknown of the Amazon jungle, they have their own special charm: tailor-made for today's tourist who looks for that little bit more from a holiday
The Snowboard Park in Momchilovtsi is located just about 10 minutes drive from the village. It is used by snowboarders and skiers and provides hot and alcoholic refreshments and snacks and "apres ski" activities
It is not only ideal for beginners and those who want to brush up on their skills but it a fantastic place to have fun in the snow and see the magic of the surrounding mountains from the Chapel at the Top of the Piste.
The park has skidoos and a climbing wall which add to the fun. Prices at the Snowboard Park are far more competitive and less expensive than in Pamporovo.
The Snowboard Park is also less crowded and it is ideal for a family fun day out without the crowds . All equipment, ie. Skis and boots can be hired on a daily rate at the Park
