    “A wonderful 400 yr old building with so much character and quirkiness.”

    Felt like home - a happy comfortable place filled with so much history. Couldn't have found a more lovely place. Well set up with everything we needed. It was a wonderful Xmas retreat. Wood burner, glass of ginger wine, and our two dogs hogging the warmest spot in front of the fire. Perfect.

    Thank you for such a lovely review. I'm so pleased that you enjoyed your Christmas at the cottage and had everything you needed. I'm pleased your woofers enjoyed it, too. Wishing you a happy 2026. Best wishes, Suzanne. Property Owner

About the location

BALA

Corwen 11 miles; Dolgellau 18 miles; Llangollen 22 miles; Betws-y-Coed 29 miles.

The bustling market town of Bala lies within the beautiful Eryri (Snowdonia) National Park and is located at the head of Llyn Tegid, Bala’s famous lake, which is the largest natural lake in Wales and home to a unique fish called the Gwyniad, a relic of the Ice Age. Renowned as a centre for great watersports including fishing, sailing, canoeing, windsurfing and whitewater rafting, Bala is also the headquarters of the narrow gauge Bala Lake Railway. The town itself is steeped in history and has a range of interesting shops, inns and restaurants, and an historical Town Walk. Surrounded by the wonderful Berwyn Mountains on one side and the beautiful Eryri (Snowdonia) Mountain Range on the other, this is a mecca for climbing, walking, mountain biking and many other outdoor activities. An ideal location for touring all of North and Mid Wales including the stunning Cambrian Bay Coast with the six-mile long Harlech Beach, overlooked by its majestic medieval castle. A truly wonderful part of Wales catering for all interests.
