Data gurus at Eurostat may have declared Bulgaria the unhappiest country in Europe after a recent poll, but the survey – which analysed levels of life satisfaction across the continent – only tells part of the story.
Whether you’re looking for golden beaches lapped by the Black Sea, cities buzzing with creativity and echoes of history, or snow-capped mountains, Bulgaria should certainly feature on your 2024 “must-visit” list. What’s more, it’s easily accessible from the UK (flights take just over three hours), and eminently affordable.
All that’s left to do is pack your bags – will it be swimsuits for Sozopol, thermals for skiing in Bansko or comfy shoes for exploring the streets of Sofia and Plovdiv? Read on and take your pick.

Unsurprisingly (and not just because its airport is the best connected by a country mile), many a Bulgarian odyssey begins in the capital, Sofia – already an up-and-coming city-break destination.
