Reviews
Absolutely love this house, a home away from home, perfectly located for nearby shops & eating places. Bala Lake is only a ten min stroll away. The house is beautifully decorated and furnished so thoughtfully by Paul & Annmarie. An amazingly big bathroom was a pleasant surprise too! We had a very relaxing time away, less than an hour to most local days or destinations, or just stayed local. Recommend a visit if sunny to cool off in the River Dee under the bridge at Carrog! You can catch the train into Llangollen from there too. Hope we will visit again! Thank you! X

Recently stayed at the Old School House in Bala with our pup. It’s a great property, Nicely furnished and spotlessly clean. The location is ideal. Stones throw from shops and pubs (yet still very quiet and peaceful) and a short walk to the lake. We will definitely be back again soon.
