  I am thrilled to write an excellent review of the six bedroom cottage I stayed at in Bala, North Wales.

  This stunning property is truly a family paradise, with a wide range of activities and amenities that are sure to keep you entertained throughout your stay. From the moment you arrive at the cottage, you'll be struck by its beautiful design and tasteful decor. The cottage boasts six spacious and comfortable bedrooms, each of which is beautifully decorated and equipped with plush bedding and high-quality linens. The cottage also features two luxurious living rooms, which provide the perfect space to relax and unwind after a day of outdoor activities. The living rooms are tastefully furnished and equipped with comfortable sofas, a cozy fireplace, and large windows that offer stunning views of the surrounding countryside. One of the standout features of this cottage is the impressive games room, which is sure to delight sports enthusiasts of all ages. The games room is equipped with a range of activities, including a PS3, a WII console, large TV, surround sound as well as a wide selection of board games and books. In addition to the games room, the cottage also boasts a luxurious Jacuzzi, which provides the perfect opportunity to relax and rejuvenate after a long day of sporting activities. The Jacuzzi is located in a private, secluded area of the cottage, ensuring that you can unwind in complete privacy and comfort. The cottage's large and well-equipped kitchen is perfect for preparing delicious meals for the whole group. Whether you're whipping up a quick snack or preparing a gourmet feast, the kitchen is equipped with everything you need to create delicious dishes using fresh, local ingredients.

  The Farmhouse is grand and spacious.

  There was a place to store everything, for example, plenty of coat hooks, cupboards etc and the laundry room was wonderful for drying out swimming costumes! It was warm and comfortable, and the wood burner was an added bonus during the colder nights. The hot tub was glorious, and it was great to relax in the sunshine, listening to the lambs in the nearby field. Unfortunately, the internet couldn't cope with our demands and was intermittent. If it was possible to install a decent broadband connection, we would be willing to pay a bit extra for the week, as it would have made the media room more accessible. There was also a Wii which hadn't been mentioned in the listings, and we would have brought games for the Wii had we known. The blue ray controller was missing in the media room too. There was also a downstairs toilet (as well as the enough suite for the downstairs bedroom) which was useful, and I hadn't noticed that in the listings either. However, considering the house had not been used for a while due to lockdown, it was a wonderful place for an enjoyable, relaxing, quiet break away. We particularly enjoyed visiting Brenig, the lake at Bala and wandering around Ruthin.

  We have just returned from a fabulous week at The Mount.

  Stunning property in a great location. The master bedroom is just amazing with a view of the sea from the balcony. The games room (complete with a pool/air hockey table and an arcade machine!!) and the hot tub were a massive hit with everybody. The kitchen is stunning and huge!! And the garden/patio area is absolutely perfect. My children, nephews and niece played out there all week on the trampoline and played with the football on the huge lawn. We’re all sad to be home. There’s some great places nearby to visit, we had plenty to entertain everybody all week. We visited a few different beaches (Prestatyn, Rhyl, Talacre and Colwyn Bay), Dyserth Falls, Tir Prince Market, and The Welsh Mountain Zoo. There’s plenty of shops nearby too. It’s a shame the indoor water park in Rhyl is closed for maintenance for the summer as this looked fun. The only small suggestion I would make is that there was a tv in each bedroom. Only 2 of the 4 bedrooms had a tv. This is obviously just personal preference and wasn’t much of an issue, just that all the kids would have liked to watch a film at night in bed. We’ve had such an amazing time and would 100% return in the future!

  Fabulous property - wonderfully spacious and general layout of the house worked really well.

  The owners were very communicative both ahead of our stay and whilst we were on holiday - they made us feel very welcome and gave some great recommendations of places to visit. They also left some really thoughtful, locally sourced welcome gifts - including bara brith, welsh cakes, welsh butter and beer. The hot tub was a great addition and a really good size and it was helpful in the evenings having two reception rooms as it meant the children could watch tv in one room whilst the adults were in another. The garden space is well maintained with a good bbq available to use. In terms of location - it is remote but with that comes beautiful views and a very peaceful break. It is about a 10 minute drive to Corwen (a lovely little village, with a nice cafe for breakfast and a fantastic 'giant adventure' walk in the surrounding hills). Bala is about 10 minutes drive away as well - a nice town with a beautiful lake. Larger towns (including a large supermarket) were about 20-25 minutes drive away. All in all, I couldn't recommend this property enough, in particular if it is a holiday for multiple families as the space is great.

  We had a really lovely week at The Farm House.

  The house itself was very spacious, beautifully decorated with an enormous kitchen-diner and ensuites to three of the bedrooms. The hot tub was an added bonus! The only slight niggle was that wifi was variable, but obviously this is often the case with rural locations and the panorama more than made up for it. Jane, the owner, couldn't have been more welcoming or helpful, and the lady who came to clean at the end of our stay was equally as friendly - it felt like they really cared about us having an enjoyable stay. We ate at two fantastic local restaurants - Palé Hall and Tyddyn Llan. Both were very good and were able to cater for our party with a vegan diner, but we found Palé Hall to be a particularly special experience. We feel sure they will be getting a Michelin Star very soon (we were told they had been in the week before). The restaurant at Rhug Farm was also fantastic at adapting their menu to make it vegan. We would be very keen to come back to the Farm House later in the year when more local attractions are open. Thanks again for a really lovely stay.
