The apartment is described as comfortable and well-equipped, with a balcony that sits right on the lake shore. The host, Beatrice, is frequently mentioned for her friendliness and helpfulness. While some guests noted the lack of a hob and steep access stairs, these points did not detract from the overall positive experiences. The property is ideal for a relaxing retreat, with many guests planning return visits.

Reviewers unanimously mention the spotless condition of the apartment, indicating a high level of cleanliness that contributes positively to their stay.

The property's location is highly praised for its beautiful views and proximity to Bala Lake and the town. The peacefulness and natural setting are significant highlights.

Guests find the apartment very comfortable, with quality furnishings and a relaxing atmosphere. However, some noted the lack of a hob and the steep access stairs, which might affect comfort for some visitors.

The apartment is generally well-equipped, but the absence of a hob and the mention of a combination oven instead of a hotplate suggest that the cooking facilities might not meet everyone's needs. Lighting in the stairway was also mentioned as an area for improvement.

While the reviews reflect a thoughtful and welcoming host, there are no specific mentions of gifts or special touches that would fall under this category. Therefore, a score cannot be provided.

Bala is well-known for its watersports, which include fishing, sailing, canoeing, windsurfing, and whitewater rafting. It is also the home of the small gauge Bala Lake Railway.

    So relaxing and the views magnificent. Beatrice is a lovely host (hoping her husband is getting better) and the property and grounds beautiful. So much to do in North Wales makes this a great base. We will be back!

    I have already booked two different weeks here next year. I love dipping in the lake, sitting on the balcony with a good book or my crochet, and watching the wildlife. Beatrice is so friendly and helpful. It is a place of complete rest and relaxation.
