Welcome to Bala Bunkhouse
Less than two miles from Bala on the edge of Snowdonia National Park, Bala Bunkhouse is only a few minutes drive from the lake and white water centre. The Bunk House is a converted 18C Welsh stone building. It is set back from the road in over an acre of picturesque grounds bounded by a river and a stream. Modernised to provide accommodation for outdoor activity groups, it is light airy and comfortable with night storage heating.
 There is a large lounge/dining area and bunk rooms for 2, 4 and 8 plus annexe for 6. Separate ladies and gentleman's toilets have washing areas and hot showers. There is a fully equipped self catering kitchen and drying room. Sheet and pillow cases provided - bring your own sleeping bag. Some quilts for hire. From the Tomen there is a splendid view of the Berwyn Hills; together with the Aran and Arenig hills they provide superb walking. Bala lake and the National white-water centre are brilliant for water sports. Good Pubs, Restaurants and shops in Bala.

Our environmental policy
Here at the Bala Bunk House we are working towards a green & safe environment, we believe it is very important to do all we can for a greener future. We use environmentally Friendly Cleaning products and recycle all we can. We also encourage our guest’s to do a bit for the environment while on their stay here, we supply environmentally friendly "E-cover" washing up liquid (so leave the Fairy at home) and separate bins for recycling Plastics, Cans, Organic, and crates for bottles. All our lights are fitted with low energy bulbs and the cisterns are fitted with hippo bag water savers.

Future plans

We are planning to implement a staged environmental make over to the place, depending on cash and planning approval, To include solar panels on the south facing side of the Bunk House roof, Conservatory built of Oak and K glass again built on the front (south facing) of the Bunk House, rain water cisterns and to finish it off we are looking in to having a hydro electric, micro-turbines, installed in the stream at the back of the property, we also intend to research the possibility of installing a reed bed waste system instead of the septic tanks.
