We loved our stay at this property. The home has been lovingly updated while retaining bits of its history. The view of the lake and proximity to both town and the marina is perfect (shout out to the team at Bala Cove Marina who are wonderful!) Liam is responsive and helpful and we were able to extend our stay an extra day. If you want to visit Bala this the place … bonus hummingbird sightings and terrific mugs!!

The owners were great to communicate with, the property could not have been cleaner, and the property was just as described and better
