About this property
Set in the lakeside town of Bala in Snowdonia National Park, this beautiful barn conversion blends original features with contemporary comforts for a truly delightful stay. Located a stone’s throw from Lake Tegid, the largest natural lake in Wales, this inviting retreat is ideal for couples and solo adventurers who love the great outdoors. After adventure-filled days walking in the mountains and enjoying water sports on the lake, this cosy cottage is the ideal place to rest and recharge.
Lovingly renovated, this two-storey barn conversion exudes warmth and character. Wooden beams and upcycled farm equipment add rustic charm, while stylish furniture and underfloor heating ensure it has everything you need for a comfortable stay. Compact and thoughtfully designed, the kitchen is well equipped to prepare delicious home-cooked fare. Romantic meals can be savoured on the dining table for two or at the bistro table on your private patio. Then snuggle up on the plush sofas for a cosy night in. Upstairs, a charming super-king-size bedroom ensures a restful night’s sleep, and the contemporary bathroom allows you to refresh with ease.
Stroll to the lakeside cafes for morning coffee with a view, then lace up your walking boots and take to the trails. Paths include town and heritage trails, as well as a stroll around the lake; the narrow-gauge Bala Lake Railway covers part of its southern shore. If you love messing about on the water, there are a range of options from fishing, canoeing and kayaking to sailing and windsurfing. Serious walkers will love the challenge of climbing Snowdonia (Yr Wyddfa) (19 miles). If you fancy something a little more gentle, hop on the Snowdon Mountain Railway, which runs between April and October.

The Cottage was really lovely, I’ve stayed in many over the years and can honestly say this was the most clean and well presented of them all, really convenient for Snowden and surrounding areas, plenty of pubs and restaurants in Bala and if you enjoy a beer there’s a lovely little ale house about three minutes walk from the cottage, please enjoy I certainly did.
