Bundles of activities await in Bala and beyond, a spectacular Snowdonia hotspot. Enjoying rural surroundings, this fabulous cottage is just 3 miles from the edge of the National Park, the town of Bala itself and Bala Lake. Simply a wonderful option for excursion-seeking couples, the abode sleeps two guests and is dog-friendly for those seeking pup-walking days out. Activities on offer nearby include hiking, boat rides, water sports and zip lining, amongst many other appealing attractions. Pack your days full of extraordinary Mid-Wales experiences before coming home to unwind in comfortable and peaceful surroundings.

On arrival, admire the patio space with bistro set out front, a magnificent spot to sit with a morning coffee and take in the admirable views. Once inside, find light-filled rooms set out over two floors. Each floor has a bathroom, ideal when relaxing downstairs or sleeping in the double bedroom on the first floor. Downstairs, a lovely kitchen is presented with all the space to cook up some delights and a feature door leading to the outside. Next door, find a lounge/diner that’s similarly bright and cheerful, complete with soft seating and a TV for keeping up with your favourite shows whilst on holiday.

On the banks of its namesake lake, Bala is a top-choice town for embarking on water-centred, with a local activity centre and a sailing club just half a mile outside the town centre. Embark on a guided activity or simply enjoy walking around the water’s edge. Another thrill-filled place that outdoor adventurers will love is Blaenau Ffestiniog (23.5 miles), home to Zip World and Antur Stiniog mountain biking centre (both 24.5 miles). If that’s not enough, situated between the towns is the National White Water Centre (6 miles), a place to book rafting and canyoning days out amongst nearby beauty spots.
