Thanks for the great trip! The location was perfect. We had no issues communicating with the host about any questions leading up to the trip, and while we were there. They provided a lot of the essentials we needed for the weekend. We will be back soon! Thanks

A wonderful spacious cottage!

We had an amazing weekend staying at this cottage as a family. The house was spacious, had everything we needed and was really clean. The upstairs bathroom was particularly lovely and had a nice bathtub and bath/shower products. We spent a lot of time sitting on the big dock and swimming in the lake, and also made use of the 2 stand-up paddle boards. They had beach towels, water shoes and some life jackets which is super nice. The lawn at the back is huge and a nice spot to play soccer or something. The sauna was also SO nice and nicely built and easy to use. The only downside was that the basement smelled musty/mildewy and one of the bedrooms is located down there so if you're sensitive to those kinds of scents something to be mindful of. Overall a very dreamy beautiful home and we wish we could've stayed longer! The nearby town (Bala) is also really cute.
