The selection of cottages at Bala Barns are situated in the best scenery I have seen. They are well kept with comfortable furniture. Good kitchen fittings, plenty of hot water and safe car parking. Pleasant walks on their property. The only sounds we heard at night were the owls and sometimes the lambs. Lovely

Bala Barns is set in beautiful countryside but is only a short drive from Bala. Tegid cottage is clean and well provisioned with comfortable seating and beds. The showers were lovely with almost instant hot water and excellent pressure and lovely fluffy towels were provided.
