The overall stay was great. The shepherds hut is set just out of Bala town and is an easy walking distance. The accommodation was lovely - had everything we needed for our stay. For the price, it would have been nice to have more items included to use the log burner and tea/coffee/milk. There was a bbq that the huts could use but when we went to use it there was nothing available to light the bbq and use it which was disappointing. At this time the reception was closed so couldn’t ask anyone. The hut could also do with a couple of touch ups - toilet moved when sat on and the bed would benefit from some better pillows!

We loved the hut. Great position on site with everything you would expect. Good size for a Shepherds Hut. The veranda space overlooking site is great to have breakfast on and watch the world go by. The hot tubs are well maintained and worked well (though check your temp on arrival if you want to use that night as ours was too low so could not use first night). Everything we expected and more.

Helen, Wales

Very relaxing stay. Surroundings so tranquil and it's close to Bala lake & the town.

Ellie, West Sussex

My partner and I came for a long weekend, we was not disappointed. The cabin was gorgeous and so comfortable, we both slept so well! The bbq hut was amazing and fully equipped with everything you need, we will be returning. The only downfall was the bugs, we had to buy fly spray because the tiny little flies were attracted to the lights, but over all it was so clean!

Gemma, Isle Of Anglesey

Me my partner and my 2 year old daughter had a wonderful time staying in The Branwen Lodge last weekend. The location was beautiful and we had stunning views of the sunset in the evenings. There was a fully equipped BBQ hut right beside the cabin which was very continent. The lodge itself was modern, spacious and in immaculate condition. The staff were all very helpful and welcoming from the minute we booked, we highly recommend a stay here! The perfect getaway!

James, Derbyshire

Really enjoyed our stay in the Blodwen hut. Great views over the Welsh countryside and great to be able to walk into the the local town of Bala. Great location for visit the seaside by car too, whilst being about to come back to the quiet countryside afterwards. The van facilities were great, especially given the hut size. And the staff were really helpful and friendly. Great stay overall ï™‚

Amber, Manchester

This pod was absolutely amazing, the whole pod was spotless on arrival. The bathroom was perfect and the kitchen was fitted with everything you would need. We used the log burner and it made the pod super warm just before bed. Will definitely be looking to book again.

Rebecca, Staffordshire

Iâ€™m so glad we chose to stay at Glampio Gelli Glamping! Beautiful location, just a strol away from Lake Bala, the hut was delightful and the lady on reception was very welcoming and will do anything to help you. The only downside to the holiday was we was only there for 2 nights. Definitely staying for longer next time!

Myself and my boyfriend had a lovely weekend in our Branwen Glamping pod. The site is so peaceful and quiet and has amazing views! It is about a 5 min walk to Bala lake which is so beautiful. Itâ€™s a 5 min drive away to do paddle boarding with also a cafe there.

It was everything we wanted for our weekend away and we loved staying here. We'll definitely be back! Our pups absolutely loved the underfloor heating and had so much fun in the garden.

Such a lovely place to stay in a really beautiful, private location. The owners were really friendly and helpful, nearby if needed but without breaking that sense of privacy.
