“A very nice property, and exceptionally clean.”

Beatrice was very helpful and friendly. It was a plus for me that I could fish the lake from the grounds.

Andrew June 2024

“These people who Owen the property are 1 of the best couple we have come across in the holiday lettings as generally wanting you to have a great time and relaxing time.”

They are welcoming and so friendly when you arrive and if there is anything they can do on your stay they will try for you. This is a place to go and unwind watching wildlife but bala is a great central area for going around a beautiful country see the site's. For this type of holiday this is a place I would very highly recommend.

Margaret May 2024

“Visiting Bala after many years away.”

Found this amazing apartment right on the lake edge with a balcony overlooking the lake. The apartment was spotlessly clean and had every comfort we needed for a few days peace and quiet. On arrival we were met by the owners Beatrice and Dennis who made us very welcome and we would highly recommend this property and love to come back sometime

It's very quiet and peaceful and the ideal place to recharge your batteries. The host is a lovely lady, very friendly and keen to ensure that your stay goes without a hitch. The apartment is well equipped, warm and comfortable and very clean. I have no "buts" about this place its lovely, and conviniently situated for getting out and enjoying beautiful Snowdonia.

Lionel April 2024

“FABULOUS...”

If your looking for great walks scenery. Quiet and peaceful. A fab host in Beatrice. Comfortable and cosy apartment right on lake. We would like to keep it a secret but fabulous place for us to stay and recharge our energies. Even if weather was against us. We felt so lucky to stay there.

- Julie, April 2024

Rowena October 2023

“We had a fabulous short stay in Tegid this October.”

It was just warm enough for me to swim in the lake, and the apartment balcony leads directly onto the lakeshore. Magical! The self-contained apartment is very well set up, with a separate bedroom, kitchenette/lounge area and wetroom with a large shower. Both the bedroom and the lounge open onto the covered balcony, with chairs outside so you can enjoy the glorious air and views. Owner Beatrice is really helpful and very welcoming. There's tea, coffee, milk and biccies to greet you on arrival. We tend to eat main meals in town (can recommend Cafe Cyffnod and Plas yn Dre) and the multi-oven and toaster are more than sufficient for breakfast and light meals. You can hear some sounds from the other apartments and above, but it's never been intrusive or a problem - and we've stayed in different apartments here for many years! There's plenty of parking away from the road, zero traffic noise and all the comforts of home. At night, with the window open, the only sounds are the water in the lake, the wind in the trees, and wildlife. It's fabulous.

- Rowena, October 2023

Hello Rowena Thank you very much for your very positive in-depth review of Tegid apartment. It is greatly appreciated, and of course pleased that you had another enjoyable and satisfying stay. Yes, it is wonderful to be able to swim in Lake Bala - in October! I look forward in greeting you on your next visit to Glan y Gro. Kind regards, Beatrice Property Owner
Emma October 2023

- Emma, October 2023

Hello Emma, Thank you very much for those kind words. I am glad you found the room, warm, clean and comfortable. Glan Y Gro is a good place to stay with quite a few attractions around 40 minutes away. Property Owner
Emma September 2023

“Really lovely, friendly hosts, amazing location and views.”

We had a great stay, visiting the nearby mountain ranges for hiking interspersed with relaxing on our balcony looking over the lake and swimming. There isn't a hob in the apartment, only a combination microwave and oven or slow cooker. We took our pressure cooker, as we're vegetarian and we were perfectly content. There are shops a mile or two away in Bala town, with a really friendly and well stocked green grocers. We would love to come back again.

- Emma, September 2023

Hello Emma Thank you for writing a review. We are so pleased that you have enjoyed a relaxing stay at Tegid Apartment. It is a wonderful feeling to swim in the Lake. We hope to welcome you back again. Best regards Beatrice Property Owner

Rowena July 2023

“Another lovely stay by the lake - and our first time in the Tegid apartment.”

Entirely comfortable and spacious; great facilities. The internet connection has definitely improved! Lovely to meet the new host, Beatrice, and the gardens are looking much happier. A great place to stay if you're a swimmer like me - even though the weather wasn't too warm the water was wonderfully fresh! (Although I admit I missed having a long soak in a hot bath after a swim...) The access to the lake from this apartment is superb, just a few steps away from the balcony. And I really appreciated the drip-rack to hang my soggy gear out to dry :-) Will definitely be back - thoroughly recommended.

- Rowena, July 2023

Hello Rowena, Thank you for taking the time to write a much detailed review. Your review is very much appreciated, especially when you are a returning guest. Albeit in a different apartment. Thank you for choosing us again. Best regards, Beatrice. Property Owner

Elizabeth June 2023

“We have just spent a wonderful week in Tegid apartment, which is right on the lake with easy access for a bit of wild swimming.”

Beatrice and Dennis were perfect hosts and on hand if needed. We cant forget the gorgeous Huni (the dog) who will give you a welcome if out on one of her strolls. Would definitely recommend and hope to return.

- Elizabeth, June 2023

Hello Elizabeth, Thank you so much for taking the time to share your lovely review, that puts a smile on our face for the rest of the day! It was so nice to see Ian enjoying his daily swim in Lake Bala. We are thankful to have friendly and appreciative guests like you and we are looking forward to your next visit. Best regards, Beatrice Property Owner
Gary May 2023

“We really enjoyed our stay.”

Our hosts were fantastic, so friendly, pleasant and helpful. The apartment was just what we needed for a much needed relaxing break. The apartment was very comfortable with the balcony becoming a regular place to sit with a drink each evening. The owners, having not owned the property for many months, are working on the garden that was apparently very overgrown, and is already a place to wander by the lakeside. There is also a summerhouse looking over the lake and woodland, with the Bala small gauge railway running directly behind the property. A place that we will be staying again for sure!

- Gary, May 2023

Hello Gary, Thank you very much for taking time to write a kind review. We are delighted that you both enjoyed your stay. Most importantly to us is that you both were able to relax and enjoy the Lakeside. Looking forward to your next visit. Best regards, Beatrice. Property Owner
Michelle May 2023

“A fabulous location and property - could not recommend it more highly.”

The facilities were exceptional - just what we were looking for - clean, comfortable and homely. The views are amazing. Beatrice and Dennis were wonderful friendly hosts, going out of their way to make our stay a pleasant and memorable one. 10/10.

Laura May 2023

“Had a fantastic stay in tegid apartment.”

Peaceful area, great view of the lake and the apartment was very spacious. Beatrice greeted us on arrival which is always nice. We didn't see much of her but she lives upstairs or was a phonecall away if we had any issues. Highly recommend staying in this apartment.

- Laura, May 2023

Angela April 2023

“We had a lovely 5 night stay at Tegid.”

We were met by Briggitte when we arrived, who showed us to our apartment. The apartment was very clean and comfortable. It had amazing views across the lake from both sets of patio doors- one from the bedroom and one from the lounge/dining area. Spacious parking facilities. There was perfectly adequate kitchen equipment for us to make breakfast and a couple of basic dinners. An omelette maker and slowcooker were provided but we didn't use them. The combination oven was easy to use and cooked everything nicely. No hob in the apartment, but a Nespresso coffee machine, toaster and kettle were there. Lots of lovely hot water for showers after a long day walking, and a very comfy bed. Easy to walk into Bala town and we had dinner one night at the John Lewis hotel -which was in easy walking distance. All in all a lovely apartment, in a fabulous location. Highly recommended. We plan to return.

- Angela, April 2023

Thank you very much for the excellent feedback. We look forward to welcoming you back, kayak and all. Kind regards, Beatrice Property Owner
