Ty Coch Reviews

Matthew
Fantastic secluded cottage. Our best and most private holiday yet. Will be back. Weve stayed in a few cottages around the uk for our holidays but this is the best for the price. The views from the hot tub and garden are panoramic and unrivalled by anywhere else weve stayed and the privacy is top notch. Often these days when you book a cottage you have no idea if its an annex or right next door to the owners or something and most listing dont tell you and take deceptive photos to disguise how overlooked you are but Ty Coch is different. It is out in the fields of a large farm and you are not overlooked at all. It truly is extreme privacy but owners are down the lane if you need them. Its perfect. The converted barn cottage is done to a very high standard with excellent amenities. Normally when we stay rural theres a hot water issue but not here. Really high standard, going on our favourite list.
The property, and property owners were absolutely lovely. This really is a special little nook in the heart of Wales. The finish of the property is to a really high standard and wed definitely recommend visiting to others, and we are planning to visit again in the summer. There are some odd cobwebs and areas that havent been dusted but we definitely put this to it being out of season and over the Christmas period. Overall, the views and property itself are gorgeous and I highly recommend it.
Claire
We had a peaceful, relaxing stay in the barn conversion. I loved that it was away from everyone and we could well and truly relax. The property itself was well maintained and had everything we needed. It is on the side of the hill so there were lovely views across the countryside to Cardigan Bay, and with low light pollution the stars were stunning ideal for astrophotography. The Prosecco, dressing gowns and slippers were a lovely touch, thank you.
Ty Coch is a beautiful secluded hidden gem. The track road in places may be a little bumpy to up to the cottage, but worth it to get to this idyllic location. The cottage itself inside is modern, comfortable and has everything you need to make your stay enjoyable. It's a perfect base for trips out, but also ideal to just stay in and enjoy the amenities, serenity, tranquility and the most stunning views this property has to offer. Owen and Lola are great hosts and are there if you need them, but respect your privacy at the same time. We would 100 recommend Ty Coch and are hoping to return soon to this beautiful setting.
The property and location were excellent, with wonderful views, and scrupulously clean, which we enjoyed enormously. It would be very useful to have instructions on the appliances, and any improvements to the potholes leading to the farm would be appreciated but did not detract from the enjoyment of our holiday. A clear indication of the drop down of the step from the bedroom area is a must, which can be quite dangerous, especially if you are carrying something.
Stefanie
Extremely well equipped, pretty cottage with a unique panoramic view. Unfortunately, the very good facilities are at the expense of storage space for personal luggage such as clothes and food, which can make longer stays problematic.
Amazing little property and the area of wales was incredible. Highly recommend
Mindaugas
Everything as expected, even better actualy. You cant see from pictures how nice the view is outside the house till you see it yourself. Loved our weekened with my partner there. Beutiful countryside, beutiful and privat property. Already recommended to some friends.
Had a lovely stay, the views and location were exceptional. Would highly recommend to anyone looking to stay in wales. Only comment I would make is that maybe some extra signage upon arrival as it was a little bit unclear to find however that didnt hinder the experience.
We booked Ty Coch as a place to stay for our silver wedding anniversary . It was a perfect location , with stunning views . The peace and quiet was greatly appreciated . The owners were very prompt in sorting a couple of minor issues. We have come away with lots of precious memories. Thank you
Albert
Rustige mooie plek, vriendelijk contact met de eigenaar, heel vluchtig bij aankomst daarna niet meer gezien. Alles is in het huisje aanwezig, bed, handdoeken en badjas schoon. Rest van het huisje stoffig en smoezelig. Ideaal gelegen voor uitstapjes naar zee en Snowdonia. Hottub heerlijk, wel zelf brandhout gehaald. Weg naar boerderij eigenaar en verder naar het huisje veel gaten en kuilen.
Danielle
Lovely little find! Quiet and remote, but close enough to so many gorgeous places. The barn itself had everything we needed, for my husband and I plus our Labrador and 18 month old! Would definitely recommend.
Although we had a nice little stay the scenery was amazing and you could see mountains, countryside & the sea. The bottle of Prosecco was most welcome. We were a little disappointed by the size of the property, very small the photos made it looked bigger. To improve the property there needs to be more cutlery & dishes as limited also instructions on how to use the hot tub as was a wood fired one and we did not use it while we were there. It would have been nice for this to be ready to use on the day we arrived. If you want isolation then this is the place to stay but as warned in write up the road to the property is bad.
Really lovely cottage in the perfect location. The wood fired hot tub was great and we enjoyed using the log burner on chilly nights. The cottage is well equipped and cleanly. Comfy bed. We were going to bring a chess board and upon opening the blanket box we found one along with some blankets which were great to get cosy on the sofa and watch TV. Perfect place to stay if you are looking for somewhere isolated and quiet. Going out into the garden and being surrounded by cows and a lovely view was fantastic. The owners were very helpful and only a phone calltext away if you need help finding the property or if we needed some extra logs. We were also left a lovely bottle of Prosecco which was a nice touch Would definitely stay again in the future.
Lovely secluded cottage, stunning views. Comfortable and clean, we would definitely go again. Only minor negative no iron. Would definitely recommend if you like peace and quiet

Rachel
The cottage was beautiful and extremely clean. It was very well equipped for self catering. There were lots of towels provided and the bed was very comfortable. I liked the decor and the nice touches such as a robe and slippers each and the welcome Prosecco. For star gazers the sky around there is so clear and I would include this feature in the description. We didn't use the hot tub so can't comment on that. It was a shame however, that there wasn't a pub in walking distance as had been stated.
Lovely cottage fabulous views rreally enjoyed our 1st anniversary there the only ... Lovely cottage fabulous views rreally enjoyed our 1st anniversary there the only downfall was the weather but it didnt stop us from enjoying the hot tub in the rain would definitely recommend thank you
Gillian
Sad shower water didnt run unable to shower every day bbq was dirty so was cooker very disappointed we ate out every day instead, bed fab scenery fab .
Really beautiful place, in the middle of nowhere, perfection! There is a stunning view and it was lovely and hot at the time! The only down side of that was the midges. However the own had left some spray. Any query's we had the owner met straight away. There is a lovely hot tub looking over fields and fields! The owner lives down the road so great if you need anything! I would highly recommend!
Stuart
The hot tub could do with more maintenance, dirty water and no chemicals to put in
Great little cottage. Location beautiful relaxing, quiet, awayfromitall with just the cows and sheep for company, but within easy reach of nearest town. Ideal place for a proper get away. Good facilities, nicely laid out, clean and comfortable. Would certainly recommend.
Odhran
We had a fantastic stay at Ty Coch! The cottage was immaculate, so cosy and very well equipped. The complimentary fudge and Prosecco was such a lovely touch! The setting is absolutely beautiful, with stunning views of the countryside and the ocean. We found it to be a perfect base for walks and hikes in the surrounding area, giving us access to so many different places within 40 minutes or less. The hosts couldnt have been more helpful and were always available if we needed them. We would definitely recommend Ty Coch to anyone thinking of spending a few days in the Welsh countryside for a relaxing weekend away or as a base for a busy active day.
Excellent property situated in a quite location, which is perfectly located close to beeches, walks and exploring the local area.
Beautiful little place for a lovely peaceful weekend
Definitely 1010 beautiful barn, well equipped. Great hosts, very helpful and friendly including their doggos We had a very relaxing week Jan 23 it's the perfect place to unwind. The views were some of the best we've seen. Lots of dog friendly beaches and walks near by the road to the barn is a farmers track but if you take it gentle driving it's fine I wouldn't hesitate in recommending and will definitely keep in mind for another break towards the end of the year x
Steven
We had a lovely stay, the accommodation was fantastic, nice and private with obviously amazing views and very peaceful. There were a couple of things which could have been improved that would have made our stay even better however. We were planning to cook most meals so to not leave the dogs, but it was made difficult with a lack of utensils, such as there only being one small knife. The toilet wasn't attached or fixed to the wallfloor, under the bed was very dirty and the lighting was very dark, which made things difficult sometimes with it being winter. There was also no dishwasher tablets, and only a small amount of kitchen roll and toilet roll, so we needed to purchase these during our stay of only 4 days. We also appreciate the property is located ona working farm, however there was clearly a space behind the wardrobe where a mouse lived and the noise it made during the night woke both of us multiple times. Otherwise it was an idyllic, peaceful retreat, perfect to spend time walking in the beautiful Welsh countryside.
Rachel
Could not be happier with the cottage, very clean and comfortable. Had all the necessities that was needed and more, down to the robes and slippers for us to use. Such a lovely spot to sit and relax in the hot tub after some lovely walks in the area. The bottle of Prosecco they left for us on arrival was a very nice touch.
Sophie
We really enjoyed our stay at Ty Coch, the cottage was lovely and private and cosy inside. The views from the hot tub were amazing
Lovely accomodation everything there that you need with fantastic views. Hot tub took a while to warm up but it was worth it.Owners were very helpful and we had bottle of Sparkling wine on arrival which was a very nice gesture. If you love peace and tranquility this is definitely the place to stay.
Thank you for letting us stay in your wonderful cottage. Views and hot tub were amazing and so peaceful. Cottage lovely and cosy. We came for our Honeymoon and everything was perfect. Would highly recommend, thank you again
Leanne
We came here on our honeymoon and was not disappointed the views were stunning photos don't do it justice. Due to circumstances,we had to bring our daughter with us. What can I say Lola and Owen are amazing went above and beyond. When we arrived they had a bed and sleeping bag and even left games for her. We also had a welcome gift a bottle of champagne and strawberries and a bar of chocolate. They had sprinkled rose petals everywhere even made a heart on the bed, it made me feel like bursting into tears happy ones. The hot tub was amazing it was well needed after trekking in the mountains. There was so many added touches like remote candles,soft towels,dressing gowns. We definitely want to come back again and i 100 recommend you stay there you won't be disappointed such a amazing place and hosts xxx
Lorraine
Spectacular views on a sunny day, very very peaceful and secluded. Hot tub is a great, does take a lot of wood and time to heat up but well worth it for relaxing in after a day of walking. The barn is small and compact but has been made comfortable and cosy. More glasses and mugs rather than just 2 and a bit more cutlery would have been better as even though its for 2 people, you dont want to have to wash up or put the dishwasher on after breakfast in order to have things to use at dinner time we were eating in a lot to save money. The water supply to the bathroom is a bit annoying, very slow and the shower is intermittent , boiling, freezing or okay !! But all part of the adventure in the hills. Nice little touches like remote candles , soft fluffy towels and extra towels, plenty of tea towels and oven gloves the robes and slippers were very appreciated. Comfortable out door furniture, perfect for a day relaxing enjoying the spectacular views. Nice bottle of Asti left for arrival. All in all a great place for a peaceful cosy retreat in a beautiful part of Wales the photos of the views dont do them justice you need to be there.
Andrea
The cottage and scenery were stunning. We had a lovely stay, weather perfect, lots of time relaxing on the patio and enjoying the hot tub . Nothing was too much for the owners, they were only a phone call away for extra wood etc
Lovely and quite with excellent views the owner Owen was a good bloke and a credit to the Welsh nation . Will hopefully revisit and spend some more time there
The property had a large patio area with lovely views of the area. There was a hot tub, plenty of garden furniture and a gas barbecue which we used to cook some delicious local sirloin steaks. Its isolation lends a sense of peace. Any issues were dealt with promptly by the owner and we had a very enjoyable stay.
We have had a fab week in this lovely barn conversion. We loved every minute. The views were to die for and as the weather was particularly good all week we had sea views all day every day. Ive listed what you get and its long! Superb views and exellent beaches nearby Lots of fab kitchen appliances Peaceful location Cracking hot tub with views!! Everything well equiped Outside blankets heaven when windy in the mornings Picnic set for outside All garden furniture brill in each area Fridge with big freezer compartment fab for our dog food! Comfy bed, loved it Lovely fluffy towels Nice touch with dressing gowns and slippers Many thanks for prosecco too Plenty big enough for 2 plus dog I really could go on. Owen was easy to get hold of for any questions we had and we had a ready supply of chopped wood for hot tub as we used it every day. Looking at those views whilst in there with a glass of bubbles was heaven. Highly recommend this place for a peaceful little get away to re charge your batteries.
The whole experience was fantastic. The cottage was exactly what we were looking for. Very remote and spectacular views. The hot tub was brilliant even when it was foggy but was amazing when the sun came out. The hosts were easy to contact and nothing was too much trouble, they even came to warm the hot tub up whilst we were out sight seeing. The area is amazing for dogs, our 8 month old puppy loved the outdoor space and exploring. The host left a bottle of Prosecco and some chocolates which was lovely. The guidebook was brilliant and we visited the potted lobster for a meal with the dog and it was amazing! Will definitely be returning and thank you for a wonderful stay!
We have visited Ty coch twice now and both times we couldnt ask for anything else , the views were amazing and the facilities are spot on , the owners are very helpful and were on hand if we needed anything, looking forward to a 3rd visit!
