The house is charming! Very peaceful and quiet. The moment you enter, you feel like you are 100 years back. The only thing that reminds you its 2015 it's the bathroom and the AC, which of course are a great addition to the house. The host is the best you can wish for. He took great time explaining everything we needed to know about the house, asked if we need any directions, told us quite a few interesting jokes and stories, made sure we are well settled before leaving. PS: make sure you stay for breakfast! his wife is the breakfast fairy :)))

Very helpful and kind people. They told us a lot about the city and the surrounding landmarks. Very clean and cozy. Breakfast was freshly prepared every day and delicious. I recommend with both hands 😊 We will visit again with pleasure.
The place is quiet and peaceful. The hosts are incredibly welcoming, kind and friendly people. They told us about the history of the city, the sights in the city and the region. Breakfast was always on time, very tasty and in large amounts.
The place is an old, house in the Varosha district, built in the 19th century, during the Bulgarian Renaissance . It is located about five minutes walk from most of the city's landmarks - the Kolyo Ficheto Bridge, the fortress, the Turkish bath. The room, although small, had everything I needed. The host is smiling and very welcoming. The breakfast included was actually a homemade banitsa, made personally by the owner that morning.
We are extremely pleased!
What a lovely traditional place! We were met on arrival and despite not fully speaking the language, we had no problems as he used a translation app. So much charm in this renovated heritage building but they thoughtfully have AC in the rooms which we loved. Fridge in our room was good as were the kitchen facilities downstairs for prepping baby bottles. Breakfast was amazing with homemade coffee, banitsa, and sunflower honey. We were sad to leave this lovely property and garden, wish we had booked more than one night!!!
Very nice home, cosi room, delicious breakfast !!! very pleasant stay !!!
Wonderful place. Very good location - the house is located near the museums, the monument of Levski and the city center. Easy access by car and parking to the house. The silence, purity and coziness in harmony with the preserved Revival style of the house take you back to another era. Kind and radiant hosts. And the breakfast is unforgettable. Thank you, dear family!
The house is very cosy, well-kept and clean. It is equipped with all necessary amenities and is located 2 steps from the city centre. Breakfast is a very tasty, homemade pie + author coffee.
Old Lovech is a good surprise but Tinkov houses are excellent. The renovation of the two houses is excellent and tourists who like genuine traditions are welcome. The hosts are wonderful people ready to help in any way. A good traditional breakfast is offered with pleasure and you do not have to miss it. Visit Tinkov's souvenir shop on the old wooden bridge where both of them are creating unique handcrafts.

tasty ADVENTURES
You will never get bored in Lovech. This will be a journey through nature, history, and local cuisine. The neighborhood around the Tinkov house comprises the old part of Lovech.
The streets of Varosha are narrow, meandering, and sometimes unexpectedly in front of them appears a wall or an entrance door. The houses in the area are small, as in most cases they are surrounded by high stone fences. The yards are arranged in levels, where ivy, wild geranium, lilac, and roses are planted.
Start exploring Lovech with the unique Covered bridge, stroll over Hissarya fortress and see the majestic monument of Vasil Levski. A stone's throw away are the picturesque Kruschuna waterfalls and the "Eyes of God" in the Prohodna cave which was a sacred site for the Bogumils in the Middle Ages. You will be literally surrounded by historical and natural states and, of course, also by tasty food, delicious wine, and friendly people.
