The host were very welcoming, we arrived greeted with an amazing hamper gift, the Christmas tree was up, with lights, the kids thought it was magical, the lay out of the cottage was exciting for the kids, all the rooms were very comfortable and the kitchen was fully equipped. The views were stunning 😍. Good WiFi with family games, and the log fire was very cosy. Definitely will stay again.

A wonderful countryside location, just 10 minutes from Bala town centre. The cottage was spotless, neat, and very well maintained, with a fully equipped kitchen that had everything we needed. The mountain views were absolutely beautiful and made our stay even more special. The owner was extremely kind and welcoming, and we were delighted by the thoughtful welcome treats, including champagne and a delicious local cake. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend this cottage.

We travel around a lot and always choose an apartment as it offers more freedom. We’ve stayed it lots but nothing comes close to this! Absolutely beautiful apartment recently renovated. The owners Karl and Helen are amazing. They have thought of every single detail. Even leaving us mince pies and some wine. Not a single item not thought about to make our stay as easy as possible. The apartment was so clean and smelt amazing. Very comfortable bed. Finished to an incredibly high standard. Bala its self has always been a favourite place of mine it’s now by far the best place ever, as my partner dropped to one knee and asked the question . On speaking with the owners who were so helpful and kind about our experience and stay that’s when they informed us that Llety Cariad translates to the Love Inn in English. Bala itself is beautiful and the community spirit is great. Amazing food available at the pub next door. And don’t be fooled by small town they do wild nights out! Everywhere we went was so welcoming and friendly.

Bala is a great base for exploring North Wales and Eryri...

Bala is a great base for exploring North Wales and Eryri National Park. Most of the places that are likely to be on your itinerary, including mountains, castles, waterfalls, beaches and Zip World locations to name just a few, are within 1 to 1.5 hours drive from Bala. Don't be put off if this sounds like too much driving as this scenic small town is well worth coming back to at the end of the day, not only for its tranquility but also its amenities. Bala has plenty of shops including a CoOp and Spar that will keep you stocked up, there are also bakeries, green grocers, pubs and a petrol station. You can also make a day of it in Bala itself as it has a large lake offering water sports and scenic walks with a backdrop of the picturesque landscape.

Bala is a small town but has everything you need.

Bala is a small town but has everything you need. The butcher next door. OMG soooo good. We traveled a lot to see as much as we could, but Bala was quite good centre for most of our journeys. The lake in Bala provides nice walk around so if you have enough of travels you have something to do in the town. We went to Snowdon, then we visited 4 different castles, then we went to sea side. OMG we went to Tywyn and it was such an amazing surprise. Sandy beach which you can walk for kilometres, the sea was very warm and it was very quiet. Loved that beach. On the way to London we stopped at Llangollen Canal to see the viaduct and it is very interesting engineering and lovely place to go. The weather was absolutely perfect. max 22 but sunny. not even one day of rain. We were very lucky. If you fancy big food supermarkets like Sainsbury, Lidl - that could be challenge, but think about it before you plan the journey for the day as they are around, but from Bala quite far. In Bala is Coop and Spar. I'm already thinking about us going back next summer. We spend 6 days in total and it was not enough. next time we will start our journey from south of Wales and then up to North. For tips where to go I followed few people on FB and Instagram. Very good help to set the journey up. Happy travels ;)

I loved the location, so much to do, incredible walks, cycle rides, friendly people, lovely host. Enjoyed seeing the RAF jets flying over the lake. Visited Porthmieron superb. Bala town is close by with several places to eat. Fantastic place to stay with fabulous view, lots of wildlife very relaxing.

We are very fond of Bala and the environs and the good little heritage railway that runs alongside the lske. We visit Bala about twice a year for long weekends and always take a trip on the railway. There are plenty of activities, such as canoeing and a white water rafting centre on the river and sailing on the lake, climbing the mountains all around and walking generally. The shopping high street in Bala is lively and packed with excellent interesting and useful shops. Good hotels and restaurants. So plenty to do!

Bala is a very nice little cosy Welsh Town.

Bala is a very nice little cosy Welsh Town. The Bala Lake is just a superb place to visit, walk, kayak if you have got young children with you. There's a lovely cafeteria on spot, where you can have excellent home cooked food, tea, coffee, delicious savouries & snacks. We loved it. There's Gym, Sauna as well. The walking trail is just so beautiful, the lake is just so serene and picturesque.

Best place we have stayed in Wales. Quirky, interesting, spacious, comfortable, warm, clean, comfy beds, 2 bathrooms, parking area, sun terrace, patio area, owned and run by a genuinely lovely local couple, on site cafe that serves great egg and bacon on toast, and to top all that it literally overlooks Lake Bala, so much so, you feel like the lake and beach is your own front garden. So glad we found this place, well done guys, keep up the good work.

We absolutely loved our stay. The cottage was spotless, beautifully decorated, comfortable and very well equipped. The location was peaceful with stunning countryside views, and it was the perfect base for exploring Bala and the surrounding area. The hosts were welcoming and helpful, making us feel at home from the moment we arrived. We especially enjoyed seeing the friendly animals, which was a lovely experience for both adults and children.

Amazing hotel and very clean. The room was very well laid out and had a tv in both areas so we could watch something different. We ate in the restaurant and the food was very good. We didn't have time for breakfast in the morning but the guy on the front desk made us 2 sandwiches to take away which was very nice of him. We will definitely stay here again next time we are visiting the karting track nearby. Thanks
