    The location was perfect for a relaxing getaway, with attractions within an hour's drive, and the staff were welcoming and friendly.

    The breakfast option could have been improved with a wider variety of choices.

    Nice cottage with a garden and BBQ facilities, perfect for a relaxing evening. The owner was very helpful and accommodating. The place was clean, modern, and comfortable. The cottage had everything we needed, making our stay convenient and hassle-free.

    The shower area and washbasin were a bit tight and small, which could be inconvenient for some guests. The wifi was challenging, especially for laptop users, as it was intermittent and not strong enough for team meetings.

    The location of the cottage is stunning, situated by a beautiful river. the garden with BBQ and fresh eggs from the chickens adds a charming touch. the place is clean, modern, and well-appointed, with a great kitchen and a fabulous bathroom. the hosts are friendly and accommodating, and even provide a freshly baked loaf as a special treat.

    Some kitchen items could be upgraded and the bed linen is of poor quality.

    I recently stayed at the charming River Cottage in Bala for a 2-night getaway with friends. It was a delightful experience from start to finish. The hosts were warm and welcoming, providing a delicious breakfast hamper on our arrival. The cottage itself was beautifully decorated with lovely wooden furniture and curtains, and a cozy fireplace added to the cozy atmosphere. The towels and bedding were fresh and clean, and the peaceful garden with the sound of the nearby water stream was incredibly relaxing. The location was ideal, with easy access to nearby attractions like Zipworld adventures. I highly recommend this hidden gem for a relaxing and enjoyable stay.

    Couldn't recommend this hotel more.

    My stay at the riverside cottage was absolutely delightful. The cottage is nestled in a beautiful garden, providing a peaceful and relaxing atmosphere. The newly decorated house was clean and well-maintained, perfect for a party of four. We enjoyed indulging in cheese and wine without the stress of pub closing times. The location was convenient, with all the key attractions within an hour's drive. Plus, the opportunity to observe the stars in the garden was a special treat.

    I did encounter a few minor issues during my stay. The wifi was a bit challenging, especially for my laptop, making it difficult for team meetings.

    The value for money at Ty'R Afon - River Cottage was excellent, with well-appointed, clean, and modern rooms. The location by the river and proximity to Zipworld adventures were fantastic. The hosts were warm and welcoming, making our stay even more enjoyable.

    Breakfast delights, while overall great, could have been improved with a larger variety of options.

    Our stay at Ty'R Afon - River Cottage was a great value for the money. The room was cozy and comfortable, with clean bedding and all the necessary amenities. The location was ideal, surrounded by beautiful nature and close to Snowdonia for hiking. The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming, making us feel right at home.

    The only thing that could have made breakfast better was if there were more options available.

    I couldn't be happier with the value for money at Ty'R Afon - River Cottage. The room was pristine and beautifully decorated, perfect for a relaxing getaway. The location was peaceful and surrounded by stunning nature, making it ideal for hiking tours in Snowdonia. The hosts were incredibly friendly and welcoming, ensuring that our stay was enjoyable from start to finish.

    For breakfast options, it would have been even better if they offered some delivery services like Uber Eats, so guests could have the convenience of quick and easy meals without having to leave the cottage.

    I had an absolutely marvelous time at Ty'R Afon - River Cottage. The garden and decked area were my favorite spots to unwind and soak in the peaceful atmosphere. I loved watching the chickens while my daughter enjoyed swingball and the great wifi. The location was perfect for exploring the surrounding areas, and having an electric car charging point was a convenient bonus. Ros and Dusty, the owners, were friendly and went above and beyond by even mailing us a towel we accidentally left behind. I highly recommend this beautiful cottage!

    I wish we had booked to stay longer because leaving this gorgeous place was hard. The only issue I had was with the internet, as I had an important business meeting and the wifi was too weak for a Zoom call.

    We loved the well-maintained garden with a BBQ area and the fresh eggs from the chickens each morning. The owner was very helpful and accommodating. The cottage itself was clean, modern, and comfortable, with everything we needed for our trekking trip.

    We felt right at home and had no complaints at all.

    The value for my money was absolutely worth it, and the room was clean and comfortable. The location of the hotel was pristine, with the sound of the river beyond the garden fence being truly mind-blowing. The staff at Ty'R Afon - River Cottage were exceptionally warm and welcoming throughout my stay.

    Food for breakfast could have been better.

    Cozy cottage, provided milk, bread, eggs & butter. Beautiful, quiet location, newly decorated house with pretty garden. Super relaxing, key attractions within an hour drive. Lovely, peaceful location with the sounds of the river, birds, and chickens. Homely experience with comfortable beds and fabulous hosts.
