Self-Catering Accommodations in Bala

The apartment is situated close to the lake and to the town amenities. The decor and cleanliness is to a high standard throughout. It smells lovely as you walk in. All the cushions are so comfortable. We used the sofa bed and this was easy to put out and was also comfy providing a good night's sleep. Everything you need is accessible. The housekeeping lady was super friendly and when an alarm was going off upstairs around 6am, she came within 3 minutes of me contacting her.We only stayed for one night but I wished it was longer.

Nice location, a practical little cottage.

Fantastic and well-equipped accommodation - perfect for us. The surroundings are beautiful. Our dog liked his stay too. The owner was also both welcoming and helpful.

Everything. Perfect. Cosy, clean and very comfortable.

The cottage was warm, cosy, and beautifully kept. Waking up to the snowy garden and peaceful countryside views through the large windows made the stay feel extra special. The place was spotless, well-equipped, and very comfortable, and the quiet setting made it perfect for a relaxing break.

Its lovely place by river side. Easy access to Bala Town. Hosts are very welcome and friendly. They have a lot apple trees

The property is lovely! Perfectly situated, easy to find and just a short drive from Bala. It is the perfect size for a couple and is very clean and modern inside, but still full of character and charm, with a beautiful view. It is super well equipped with everything you would need for a short stay - even providing fresh wild flowers, a little complementary milk and other basic cooking essentials. Karen is the perfect host and has clearly put in a lot of effort and attention to making the Barn a wonderful stay. She provides plenty of instructions on how to reach the barn and any additional information you might need. My partner and I had the perfect stay here and would definitely come again and recommend!

A perfect stay – we didn’t want to leave! Our family had a truly wonderful time at Afonfa – the accommodation was so comfortable and welcoming that we honestly didn’t want to leave. With plenty of space across three bedrooms, it was ideal for us as a family. A thoughtful touch was the additional toilet facilities on the ground floor, which made things extra convenient. The kitchen is fantastic—well-equipped and spacious—and I was genuinely sorry not to make full use of it. The outdoor patio area was a lovely spot to unwind with a pint, and there are many scenic walks starting right from the doorstep. Our hosts were fantastic—friendly, helpful, and always available without ever being intrusive. A lovely example of their hospitality was when they invited my husband to join the local running club for an evening run, which he thoroughly enjoyed. As environmentally conscious travellers, we were especially pleased to see the use of eco-friendly cleaning products and a strong focus on recycling. It’s great to see a place that values sustainability. We would absolutely recommend Afonfa to anyone looking to explore Snowdonia. It's a perfect base with all the comforts of home—and more!
