With its regal exterior and sprawling garden where you can enjoy privacy and peace, the Crown House oozes medieval vibes, sparks your imagination and whisks you back to majestic times of chivalry, magic and miracles. Another close link to the Middle Ages is the fact that back in that time the village of Tarhovo, where the property is situated, was known as a centre of falconry where they trained these remarkable birds of prey to be used for hunting by the retinue of the Bulgarian king who lived in the nearby capital of Tarnovo. How exciting is that?!

The perfect location of the village of Tarhovo is another asset of this fascinating property. Situated near the eponymous Tarhovo dam, a 5-minute drive away from a local Equestrian centre and at the foot of the magnificent Stara Planina, the village offers endless opportunities for outdoor enthusiasts to engage in outdoor activities and explore the beauty of Bulgarian nature. And fans of history will certainly enjoy visiting the ancient Dryanovo Monastery "St. Archangel Michael", founded in the 12th century, during the Second Bulgarian Empire, which is only 15 miles away from the village of Tarhovo. And as we mentioned above, Veliko Tarnovo, a city full of history and charm, which was the Bulgarian capital during the Second Bulgarian Kingdom, from 12 until 14 c. is also very close to the village (28 miles away).

Tarhovo is also only 8 miles away from the Municipal centre - Sevlievo and 13 miles away from the District centre - Gabrovo. Both towns offer numerous small shops and big shopping centres, as well as all the necessary amenities one might need. Also, the Sofia-Varna motorway is only about 15 minutes away from the town of Sevlievo.
