    What our customers say about their holidays

    • Kate - Verified booking

      We enjoyed a wonderful stay in Bala.

      The house is perfectly placed up a steep hill with amazing views. It´s a great base to explore the area. The house itself has lots of nice touches, the amount of family board games was exceptional and we made great use of them. The bedrooms are basic and the low ceilings in some and the bathroom may be difficult for very tall people! But it all adds to the charm of the place. Having our dog with us was super important to us, the outside space is very well maintained and we spent most evenings enjoying the sun in the garden. The Guest book is very detailed with ideas for places to visit as a family with 2 teenagers we explored the following Bala Lake just a few mins walk away has lots of watersports on offer paddle boarding kayaking etc. 15 mins drive to the Whitewater rafting centre ‘ would highly recommend this place! Then about an hour away to Penryhn Quarry to one of the ZipWorld sites again, outstanding for activities for the family. On top of that, Bala itself has some lovely things to offer. Restaurants including the top rated on trip advisor “Old Wives Tale” which is a quaint Portuguese restaurant where the chef is the waiter and host and it feels like you are dining in his house . Amazing. Towns of Betws Y Coed is worth a visit and also has another smaller zip world experience.

    • Sangeeta - Verified booking

      When we arrived the owner let us in and there was strong smell,that smelt like fresh varnish.

      I didnt mention it as I thought it would improve. It turned out that the smell did not disappear and affected my daughter and gave her head ache. I complained and was told the smell was from the boiler which had been serviced a week ago. They told me it should go away. It did not go away and they called out a plumber to look at it. The plumber agreed it was probably to do with it being serviced. I mentioned that they should have informed us of the strong smell from the boiler, owner was adamant he could not smell anything. I was disappointed with his attitude and response. The cottage itself was well equipped however it was dusty in places and there was evidence of woodworm in the beams. The upstairs toilet door and door leading into the kitchen kept jamming, which is a hazard.

    • Jane - Verified booking

      We have just returned from a lovely week in Bala.

      The holiday cottage was great, the owner was there to meet us and show us around the property. There was a beautiful garden and the cottage itself was really spacious with everything you could need and some thoughtful touches. We really enjoyed the location and the beautiful scenery of Wales. We had our dog with us and it was the perfect place to make the most of dog walks, but also open water swimming and paddle boarding on Bala Lake, some runs round part of the lake, a round of golf at a beautiful if not challenging course a few minutes from the cottage, horse riding on the beach and visits to some lovely places. In the evenings the cottage was the perfect place to relax and there were numerous games to play. A thoroughly enjoyable week.

    • Daniel - Verified booking

      The cottage was very well kept, beautifully finished and very very clean.

      We met the owner of the cottage on arrival and he gave us a tour of the place, showing us where the appliances are and making himself available whenever should we need help. The cottage itself is set back from the town up a quiet country road and provides tremendous peace and tranquility. We were very happy to walk up the hill back to the cottage after days out/trips to the pub, it only burned off those extra calories! However in Bala itself there are plenty of places to park if you didn’t fancy the walk back. All applicances worked like a dream, the washing machine came in handy a couple of times after some muddy hiking as well as sailing on the magnificent lake. We are very happy, and are planning a return in the near future.

    • Martin - Verified booking

      Sykes we extremely helpful in helping us navigate the booking of our holiday during the Coronavirus pandemic.

      Our call was answered quickly (by somebody in the UK - not a foreign call centre!!) and the lady I spoke to answered my questions with certainty and put my mind at rest that our booking was secure even if travel restrictions changed. Cannot recommend our accommodation highly enough. A beautiful cottage in a stunning location with great views. Better equipped than some '5-star' hotels I've stayed in. Spotlessly clean, lovely comfy beds, awesome shower and even left us some tablets for the dishwasher! Our hosts were lovely people who even helped me get my poorly dog inside after he needed a trip to the local vets. Cannot thank them enough for their hospitality.
