The "Kochorite Mahala" ("Kochorite" hamlet)
is a villa complex comprising 11 houses situated about 1300
metres away from "Malina" villa complex in the western
part of Pamporovo resort, at an altitude of 1440 metres above
sea level.
All the houses are two-storeyed ones and are divided in 4
types depending on the area and the interior disposition of
the rooms
Each house has its own terrace, and its own parking place
and an outlet to the exterior at two levels - to the inner
yard of the complex and to the beautiful natural surrounding.
The view revealed when a person looks outwards from the complex
is a view of the emblematic rounded hills of the Rhodope mountains,
overgrown with spruce and pine forests.
In order for you to feel safe and comfortable in the complex,
the latter offers constant security and year-round maintenance.
The passageway leading to the complex is a well-lit asphalt
road.
The architectural style of the villa complex is the typical
one of this region. Natural materials have been chosen both
for the exterior and the interior of the houses - stone and
wood predominantly - which are specific to the Rhodope architecture.
All prerequisites for home comfort and cosy atmosphere are
present in the "Kochorite Mahala". This will make
you feel perfectly comfortable during your stay in your villa.
Besides, the architectural solutions - both the exterior
and the interior ones - are carefully balanced, and as a result
human intervention does not dominate the charm of the wild
nature which is all around you. Thus the complex is inscribed
in the beauty of nature without interfering with its harmony.
The "Kochorite Mahala" will be your convenient
base for skiing in the winter, and for relaxation and mountaineering
in the summer, and for your rest and seclusion in the soothing
embrace of the Rhodope mountains.
