We had a great time in Bala. The property was warm, clean, comfortable and well equipped. As hill walkers we were delighted with the excellent shower and the proximity of so many hills. The location in town was close to an excellent butchers, chip shop and ice cream shop and good bakers and greengrocers as well as 2 small supermarkets. The owners were friendly and interested in their customers and always ready to help. We would highly recommend this property for any couple wishing to stay in this area.

This place is great and well connected for visiting the area of Snowdonia With Bala on your doorstep which has good eateries. The lake is beautiful within easy access down a river walk. If you are taking your four legged friend away with you, you cannot go wrong staying here.Karl was very helpful and friendly and went out of his way to make us feel welcome. In the apartment there are a lot of little extra added touches like shower gel etc Having said all this there is a downside. Unfortunately you can hear the people above. Moving around. Using the bathroom and just general noises of living aboveWe did have disturbed sleep the first. Night and we mentioned it to Karl it did improve but we were still aware of it

Just returned from our three night stay in Bala. The accommodation was top class and our hosts Karl and Helen went above and beyond to make our holiday a very pleasant experience. The apartment was spotless, comfortable and with lots of little extra touches to ensure that we had everything we needed for our stay. The apartment is very well situated, with shops and eateries right on the doorstep and spectacular scenery just a few minutes away. Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend.
