The property

This homely semi-detached cottage rests in the town of Bala; a market town steeped in history, located at the head of Llyn Tegid, Bala’s famous natural lake.

Perfectly suited for families, The Old School House is comfortable and inviting, renovated to a high standard, with everything you need to feel right at home.

The country cottage kitchen is a delightful place to commence your stay, followed by a beautiful sitting room which will become the children's cosy little hideaway with a collection of books and games on offer, and a gas fire for those cooler evenings.

The separate lounge is equally as stylish, including sumptuous sofa's, a feature fireplace, and a dining table for six people to come together after an adventure.

There is even a Blu-ray player to entertain those cosy nights in.

The upper floor is the perfect opportunity for some relaxation, with a choice of three bedrooms; comprising two doubles with wardrobes, and a room with bunk beds, also featuring a PlayStation 3.

Lastly, The Old School House is complimented by a family bathroom which is brought to life by a walk-in shower, and a freestanding bath.

Bordered by the wonderful Berwyn Mountains on one side and the beautiful Snowdonia Mountain Range on the other, this is a mecca for climbing, walking, mountain biking and many other outdoor activities.

An ideal location for touring all of North and Mid Wales including the Cambrian Bay Coast with the six-mile long Harlech Beach, overlooked by its majestic medieval castle, this retreat is not to be missed.
