Reviews

I have no complaints at all about this property. It’s wonderful! Comfortable, clean, well stocked with everything you need for a weekend/week. Great location. Lovely views out the back.

Mrs A,

A very clean, comfortable and well equipped property in a quiet location just off Bala High Street. It is also just a short level walk from the leisure centre and lake. The accommodation included 2 living areas, 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms and provided ample space for 2 teenagers and 5 adults. The owners were very welcoming and helpful. I would highly recommend this property to anyone looking for accommodation in the area.

Mrs W,

Very welcoming owners, the place it self was very clean and tidy. Overall an very premium feeling. Nice rooms!

Mr K,

Location

Enjoy a wide range of amenities and attractions on the doorstep at Llety Llew Coch. Located within the privacy of an enclosed yard (that used to be the owners' family farm), the cottage is a stone's throw from Bala market town with its range of cafes, restaurants, shops and bars. With its own private corner within the yard, the cottage faces outward over an agricultural field and towards the hills of Snowdonia.

Bala is a lovely Welsh market town with a wide range of restaurants, cafes, shops and bars. There's even a quirky bottle shop and tap room where you can enjoy Welsh beers and bring your own food. Amongst the best places to eat (all within walking distance) are the White Lion Hotel, Y Plas Coch, Bistro Y Cyfnod, Plas yn Dre, Bala Spice and Y Cwrt. Also worth a short drive is Yr Eagles in Llanuwchllyn (5 miles) and Lake Vyrnwy Restaurant (13 miles). Some of the best pubs in town include The White Lion, Y Plas Coch and Y Cwrt (all within a 5 minute walk).

Also on the doorstep is a traditional cinema, a Leisure Centre (fitness room, indoor swimming pool and slide) and Llyn Tegid (Bala Lake) - the largest natural lake in Wales where you can enjoy a range of watersports such as canoeing, sailing and windsurfing. There is also a lakeside steam train that takes you from Bala to Llanuwchllyn and, 4 miles away, a National White Water Rafting Centre.

Other popular attractions in this beautiful area of Snowdonia includes high speed go-carting circuit in Cerrigydrudion (12 miles), Zip World, Bounce Below and Llechwedd Slate Caverns (18 miles) and Coed y Brenin Mountain Biking Centre (23 miles). Portmeirion (25 miles), the beautiful beaches along the coast and castles such as Dolwyddelan and Harlech are all worth visiting as well, not to mention the other market towns in the area such as Dolgellau and Ruthin.
