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

The cottage was very comfortable, clean and spacious including lovely welcoming touches and very helpful information from the owner (by phone).. We found it to be in an excellent location for exploring, with all the places that we wanted to visit being a 40 - 60 minutes scenic drive in any direction. (Mount Snowdon, The Waterfalls, Bounce Below) The shower is powerful and the bath deep. Also as an added bonus there is a dishwasher - most welcome after a long day of hiking! The lake is about a 10 minute stroll away where we hired kayaks, had a lovely full breakfast and delicious ice cream at the cafe. We hired bikes from the bike shop round the corner. The locals were all very friendly and there is everything that you could need in the village, a couple of small supermarkets, several pubs and restaurants, a couple of takeaways and some lovely gift shops. We had a great holiday and would definitely recommend this cottage and location as a place to stay :)

Me and my family really enjoyed our stay at The Old School House.. The house is located in a great position close to shops, pubs restaurants. But still in a very peaceful location. The house is well equipped with everything you need for a break even had champagne flutes which I have found previously a lot of holiday homes don't have. All in all I would defiantly recommend this place to people to stay and I will more than likely return there again myself.

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.
