    Beautiful, cosy cottage for a perfect stay in Snowdonia

    Nothing, we really had a good stay. Perhaps only a bigger frying pan for the families who have to cook for 5 people 😉 And a measure cup or scale in the kitchen. The weather is not always so perfect, so sometimes it is best to stay in for a few hours. Then it is lovely to do some baking in a cottage like this, especially with the kids (the kitchen is perfect for it with all the space and ovens 😀 ).

    Beautiful, cosy cottage with everything you need. Plenty of space, nice bedrooms, good kitchen. And we were surprised by the lovely basket with welcome supplies. A stunning surrounding with Llyn Tegid (Bala Lake) and mountains in front of the house. A really good place to start and discover Snowdonia, North Wales.

    A couple of details needed a refresh/update, the property smelt of cigarette smoke upon entering, the front door lock needed adjustment and was very difficult to unlock/lock for fear of snapping the key off and the bolt put into the shower controls as a handle was a little rough compared to the rest of the property which was delightful.

    Lovely location, very convenient for all the wonderful things in the local area. The set up was perfect for my daughter and I, comfy beds in both rooms and a nice area to chill out downstairs. The Welsh cakes and milk were a lovely touch, my daughter adored the Welsh cakes, I barely got a look in ☺️ We will definitely stay here again as we now have the bug for the area and this property helped with that greatly.

    If heavily pressed for an answer on this, having to go through one of the small bedrooms that doesn't have a window to enter the other small bedroom wasn't ideal. Bathroom lighting was considerably dim. But overall, these did not bother us, and we really enjoyed the stay

    The place was very warm, cosy and clean, good speed Internet, well equipped kitchen with everything that one would need including nice big fridge with water dispenser etc, downstairs space was great. The main bedroom was of nice size and all the beds were comfortable. The host was very helpful in providing directions, and access to property was easy with good parking right in front. The location is excellent for a quiet base point to explore snowdonia. Not far from local Lake and little town. Gorgeous location. Would be happy to use this place again, and I definitely highly recommend staying here

    Nothing, it was perfect.

    The cottage was definitely a home from home, loved all the nice little, homely touches, had an amazing log fire, and was in a perfect location to get out and about. A great host too, very helpful when enquiring about things to do in the area, i couldn't ask for more, and I would definitely book again

    Lovely mid terrace stone cottage at the end of the lake :)
    • Leisure trip
    • Family with young children
    • Three-Bedroom House
    • Stayed 2 nights

    A few little things. No welcome pack so I wasn't sure if I was to strip the beds or put the waste out... Loose toilet seat (moved as you sat on it) just a nut missing. No banister so not much to hold on to going up/down the stairs. Kitchen bin lid stuck open - got a bit smelly! Gutter missing above the front door - not really a problem except it rained heavily the whole time we where there which caused a stream of water right outside the front door - got a soaking each time we used it :(

    Cottage is in a quiet location, set approx 100yds off the road, nice views from the front and parking right outside. Seating area to the front. Cosy lounge and a fabulous reclining settee. Good size dinning kitchen and plenty of pots & pans etc. Large fridge/freezer and a good oven/grill and hob. Host had put milk in the fridge and left some welsh cakes. Bedrooms clean, comfortable and well furnished, towels and bedding included - we slept really well. The main bedroom (double) was lovely plenty of storage and a tv should you need it. The smaller two rooms I think were originally one as you passed through one to get to the other. The single room does not have a window but it didn't bother my granddaughter, she loved it. The other room has bunk beds and both rooms are nicely done. Good bathroom, lots of hot water and a nice big bath. Didn't use the shower as my grandchildren loved the bath but that looked good too. Loved the fireplace (wood burner) and all the exposed stone and the wood beams. Theres a little laundry/boiler room under the stairs with a washing machine and towel radiator. Bala high street is about three or four miles along the main road. All in all we enjoyed our stay and would go back again :)

    The TV is positioned quite high up on the wall which took a bit of getting used to.

    The photos don’t do this lovely cottage justice! They make it appear smaller than it is, it’s actually quite roomy with tall ceilings. It is well equipped, the bed is huge and very comfortable, and the wood burner makes for a cosy atmosphere.

    Property could do with a name tag or number, so you know which one it is. BT Wi-Fi service was a little poor. Smaller beds a little uncomfortable & could benefit from better mattresses.

    Quiet and cosy little cottage within reasonably close driving distance of Bala amenities and for exploring Eryri. Super-King size bed in the main bedroom was very comfy. The other beds are suitable for small children.

    The only thing that could be imporved would be the cleanliness, there were areas that could use a proper dusting and a little bit more attention to detail. But on the whole, it didn't really impact our trip.

    Stayed here with my 11 year old neice, my best friend and her two children and the house was perfect for us. Its a real home away from home, with everything you could need for a holiday. The house has lots of character and plenty of space. The kids loved the big sofa with the cup holders! Perfect base for exploring the Snowdonia area
