The Loft Apartment

About this property

The Loft Apartment is a duplex apartment resting over the second and third floors in a quiet area of Bala, Gwynedd. Set on the edge of the picturesque Eryri (Snowdonia) National Park and enjoying close proximity to local amenities and Llyn Tegid (Bala Lake), this apartment welcomes couples and solo travellers to savour a break amongst the most scenic area of Wales. Step inside this townhouse apartment and make your way up to the second floor, home to the open-plan living space hosting everything you need for a self-catering break. Cook up a storm for your loved one in the kitchen, with the added bonus of a coffee machine for your morning java, and that all-important dishwasher to help with the cleaning up. Plan your next day’s adventure over dinner at the dining table, before settling down to watch a film on the Smart TV. Indulge in a long soak in the freestanding bath while your towel toasts on the heated towel rail, before making your way up to the bedroom. Adorned with an ornate, French four-poster bed, the bedroom invites you to rest away the day, ready to take on more outdoor adventures the next day. Finishing off the property is a shared rear courtyard, providing a space to catch some fresh air before venturing out for the day. When you’re ready to explore, you’ll find you’re in a prime position for outdoor activities, with Bala Lake just a short walk away and offering watersports including kayaking, sailing, and paddleboarding, with the option to hire equipment available locally. After a day on the water, the high street has a variety of pubs and cafés to choose from to refuel, such as Plas Yn Dre for delicious and well-presented dishes sure to please, and Sosban Fach, a quaint, slate café serving traditional Welsh favourites. Being in the Eryri National Park, you can find mountain biking and hiking routes galore, with Yr Wyddfa (Snowdon) and Gwydir Forest Park just scenic drives away through the beautiful country roads. For even more natural beauty, you can discover waterfalls, lakes, rivers and streams spread throughout the area, or you can head to the Clwydian Range & Dee Valley National Landscape for hilly walks and spectacular views. The Loft Apartment is a superb choice for a break in North Wales.

The bustling market town of Bala lies within the beautiful Eryri (Snowdonia) National Park and is located at the head of Llyn Tegid, Bala’s famous lake, which is the largest natural lake in Wales and home to a unique fish called the Gwyniad, a relic of the Ice Age. Renowned as a centre for great watersports including fishing, sailing, canoeing, windsurfing and whitewater rafting, Bala is also the headquarters of the narrow gauge Bala Lake Railway. The town itself is steeped in history and has a range of interesting shops, inns and restaurants, and an historical Town Walk. Surrounded by the wonderful Berwyn Mountains on one side and the beautiful Eryri (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 stunning Cambrian Bay Coast with the six-mile long Harlech Beach, overlooked by its majestic medieval castle. A truly wonderful part of Wales catering for all interests.
