We spent two nights at this lovely B&B. A fantastic reception from genuinely nice people who gave great advice about the local area. Breakfast was superb with the finest quality ingredients which we enjoyed. The room was very comfortable with tea and coffee making facilities and a ensuite which suited all our needs. Overall a fantastic gem and highly recommendable.... More

Four of us arrived having cycled 80+ miles - could not have asked for a warmer welcome: Large pot of tea and freshly cooked welsh cakes. Picturesque and quiet location but only one mile from centre of Bala, easy to walk. Lovely rooms and bathrooms. Nice touches included a basket full of extra tea, coffee, milk and biscuits on the...

We truly enjoyed our stay here, and genuinely found ourselves saying how we 'can't wait to get back tonight' after long, hard, activity-filled days. We found this a great place to relax, Mel and Mick's hospitality top-notch, and would certainly stay again. Overall, very happy with our stay. Most of the activities we did were near Betws y Coed, and... More

CYSGOD Y COED is one of those rare finds where the warmth of your reception, cleanliness, level of service and general thoughtfulness of Mel & Mick actually out shine the positive reviews already accumulated. Stayed for a weekend with the objective to climb Snowdon and enjoyed the whole weekend from start to finish.

Great B&B, good location and friendly hosts - this is a great place to stay and explore North Wales. The property is located just outside Bala and a mile from shops and amenities. We enjoyed our stay here and will be happy to recommend to others

Quiet, B&B just outside Bala. Lovely cooked breakfast, which set us up for the day. From Llanfor you can easily reach both West & East destinations, e.g. (50mins to Portmeirion, 30mins to Llangollen). Just outside Bala found a couple of nice pubs for evening meals (Eagles Inn & Brintirion Inn). This was our first visit to Gwynedd, but wont be... More

Went to stay for 2 nights including an Encuastic art course. Great value for money and nothing wasn't too much trouble. Mel and Mick are great hosts and treated us as part of the family with Mick cooking us lovely breakfasts - even asking us if we would like to eat outside on our last morning. Rooms were spacious and... More

Excellent stay over Easter weekend. Mel made us tea and cakes on arrival, the room was very attractive and comfortable. Breakfast was amazing and Mel was flexible enough to accommodate us even though we were fairly late down for breakfast. I would happily stay here again if visiting this area. The only criticism I would make is that the plumbing... More

Thank you for the feedback on the plumbing issue! We have now had this fixed - we had water hammer when you stayed. Thanks for raising our awareness on this issue. Look forward to welcoming you back soon. All best wishes Mel & Mick More

Friendliest and coziest B&B ever. Fantastic breakfast. Very homely and caring hosts. Good location...might be a bit tricky to find (if its really dark without a GPS). I was 36 weeks pregnant, and felt very very comfortable. Cannot fault this B&B for anything. Want to come back to Snowdonia just to stay a couple of days here :)

What a fantastic place! We were treated like one of the family. Lovely cottage, very comfy bed. Tea and cake when we arrived, which we had in the beautifull garden. Then all you could eat for breakfast! What more could you ask for. Highly recommend!
