Lake View Farmhouse Escape, hotel in Bala

Featuring a sauna, Lake View Farmhouse Escape is set in Bala. Located 24 km from Lake Vyrnwy, the property provides a garden and free private parking.

This property was beautiful and the views out the windows were stunning. We had a very comfortable 2 nights in the property. The kitchen was well stocked with plenty of glasses, plates and cooking utensils and a large range oven, making preparing food very easy. There is 2 indoor fireplaces which the host provided kindling logs and firefighters for which was a really nice touch. The sauna was also wood fired which was very easy to set up and enjoy. There were 5 double bedrooms with comfortable beds and a washer and dryer in the property which were handy. Lisa and her family were incredibly responsive and helpful. It snowed when we were there and we were worried about struggling to get back home due to conditions, Lisa’s dad came to the property who has farmed the land and eased our concerns. He even took us onto the farm to meet the animals which was a really nice touch. The town of Bala was located a 20 minute drive away which was a nice walk around with plenty of amenities. We spent most of our time here sat around the large dining table relaxing and taking in the views of the Welsh mountains. We would love to revisit in the summer as I can imagin the views are equally breathtaking. Thank you so much Lisa and family

The Bala House, hotel in Bala

The Bala House offers accommodation in Bala, 46 km from Chirk Castle. With free private parking, the property is 46 km from Portmeirion and 37 km from Horseshoe Pass.

The house was home from home. We put the heating up when we got in and we were lovely and warm. Everywhere spotlessly clean. Beds very comfy. Kitchen had everything we needed. Tv was great and easy to use. Lovely comfy couches to sit on. Amazing location, felt very safe and quiet, parked right opposite on chapel cap park and moved car to unload right outside house. Great to see the book about the renovations to the house. Bathrooms were spotless and ideal for multiple people staying together. So close to shops and cafes, restaurants and the beautiful Bala lake only a short walk away. Liked everything about the house and look forward to returning at some point soon. Just wonderful.

Pen-Y-Bryn Cottage, hotel in Blaenau-Ffestiniog

It's a very cosy cottage. All clean and there is everything for cooking. The location is superb: a lovely view of the mountains and waterfalls from the window, a high street with shops within walking distance, and main landmarks are a 30-40min drive. We all enjoyed this little quiet cottage as our holiday space.

The friendly & helpful host contacted me on arrival day to offer directions, to explain check-in procedures and ask if we needed her to get fresh bread & milk for us. On arrival the house was warm, cosy & very welcoming. I was very impressed with the style and spaciousness throughout, from the beautiful original features to all the modern facilities. Beds were large & comfortable, the kitchen was well equipped and basic supplies were plentiful. There was plenty of hot water, and fluffy towels. Everything was clean and traditionally luxurious.

    The location was in the middle of nowhere, but we found it with the help of the hosts! To our surprise we came in a luxury cottage with 2 floors (so a lot of space) and also complete with regard to the facilities. We did not expect that because we booked B&B. It was really phantastic. The breakfast was simple, just continental and we could use it by self-service, but no problem, with all the facilities. There was even a bubble-bath outside in a barn.

    Really nice, cosy place to be Really good breakfast, I had salmon with scrambled eggs and I must say that salmon portion was really big compare to other places where you need to look for salmon hiding on the plate. I had small room but double with it, which was really nice travelling solo. Tea tray with small bottle of wine did the trick with me very well. I'll coming back to the village in the next three months and definitely stay here again.

    Ive stayed in numerous 5* hotels across the world and have experienced different levels of luxury, allowing me to know what should i demand. Pale hall is truly memorable experience worth repeating every possible occasion, Stay was comfortable, with excellent service and extreme high standards but most importantly with warm and pleasant homely feel … we loved it and would recommend to others … Rich history of the building is also fascinating…
