Moon River Paradise
Sarah & Matt's place is a little slice of paradise on Moon River. It is the most beautiful, soothing and restorative spot. Beautifully decorated and furnished and well equipped. We thoroughly enjoyed chilling, paddling and chatting by the firepit - not something we do very often at home in UK. It was fantastic to have the use of a canoe and two paddleboards as we could all go out together as a family. Bala is a lovely town with all the essentials needed for a stay in a cottage. Thank you for sharing your lovely cottage - we'd love to come back and stay on a future visit from UK. Andy, Debbie, Poppy & Jake xxx
