Ty Coets (Coach House)

21 Customer Reviews

• "The cottage was excellent for exploring Caernarfon being close to the railway and castle, with easy access to the wider north coast."

  Unfortunately the inside was a bit sad looking and in need of some TLC and sorting out especially the crockery cupboard, only two dinner plates one of which was chipped and also totally cracked crockery which was unusable. We did not receive a welcome pack. The bed although comfortable lacked a proper size fitted sheet. On arrival we found only a partly used toilet roll and no replacement. The shower floor had long dark and pubic hair still in it. We also found onions and tinned tomatoes in the kitchen cupboard. Even though residents were asked to put the council recycling bins out, it had clearly not been done.

• "Booking Ty Coets (Coach House) through Sykes Cottages is the worst experience we have ever had in our lives."

  We had exactly the same experience as Stephan (see below). Unfortunately, we had already booked the apartment when Stephan posted his report. The beds were not made. The flat was not cleaned. The flat was not tidy. There were no towels. The fridge was dirty. There was mail in the letterbox from the last few days or weeks. We arrived in Caernarfon on 1 May in the afternoon after a journey of more than 15 hours. We called Sykes Cottages several times until the next afternoon and were repeatedly put off. Not once did Sykes Cottages proactively get back to us. We had to book a hotel room on the first night (1st May to 2nd May). When our last deadline passed on the afternoon of 2 May (more than 24 hours later!!!), we booked a hotel for the remaining five nights. That wasn't so easy as it was Bank Holiday weekend. To date we have heard nothing from Sykes Cottages. We have not received a refund. Neither for the two alternative hotels we booked nor for the Ty Coets flat. We had offered the latter to Sykes Cottages. We can neither recommend Ty Coets (Coach House) nor the provider Sykes Cottages. As I said, this was the worst experience we have ever had in our lives. If we could award minus points in the rating, we would do so to the maximum extent.

• "As you know, the property had not been cleaned prior to our arrival, nor were the beds made up."

  A messy first night involving, waiting for the cleaner to arrive and then sitting in the car at Tesco waiting for the property to be prepared. The subsequent late dinner didn’t help. This was followed by the boiler maintenance issue which seemed to be mainly sorted by Chris the owner. He contacted directly me via text and phone call. Seemed like a nice chap by the way and none of this is his fault. House was fine, in a good location.

• "Ty costs is a fantastic house very near high St and pubs restaurant's etc."

  Ideal location. The house is very comfortable and the owner has made it a home from home. The view from the lounge upstairs is lovely .Also great to have a parking space.

• "Stayed in Ty Coets for 3 months from Jan-March, would highly recommend, excellent facilities and the owner Chris was very helpful with any additional requirements during my stay and providing recommendations for things to do in the area!"

  The cleaners kept the house well maintained and clean throughout my stay! Lots to do and see in North Wales.

• "An ideal location to explore the town and surroundings."

  Only stayed 2 nights but very quiet and comfortable. Kitchen/diner well equipped and generally tidy .(wastebins not emptied). Bathroom was good but wet towels left hanging behind door and bits/hair in shower tray due to slow draining of water. Lounge area was very pleasant with nice views. Could have been warmer considering time of year but didnt feel the need to inform anyone as only stayed 2 nights. Being so close ,easy walking distance, to the Castle, waterfront, bars, shops etc was great. Definitely consider returning.

  Dear Ian, thanks for your review. I’ve been in contact with Menai Holidays and the cleaning team regarding areas of the feedback that were not up to the usual expected standards. We hope that you’ll make a return visit to Ty Coets and will make sure that the temperature is set to your preference for your next stay. Very happy to hear that you would consider returning to Ty Coets. All the best Property Owner

• "Lovely clean property."

  Would have liked to know how to work the heating. Overall had a very pleasant stay but weather not so good.

  Dear Maggie, we are happy to hear that you enjoyed the Coach House. Sorry to hear that the weather wasn’t great. Thanks for the early feedback during your stay asking for a lower temperature. Hope you will return to Caernarfon and Ty Coets again. All the best Property Owner

• "Lovely place."

  All you need for a comfortable stay, great base for exploring north Wales, quiet location yet walking distance from caernarfon castle, railway and all supermarket's, not to mention several lovely pubs, would highly recommend.

  Thanks very much for your great review. Very happy to hear that you had a lovely stay and enjoyed the local surroundings. Glad you enjoyed the steam show from the Welsh Highland Railway - which can be seen while looking out across the river from the living room. Also happy to hear you enjoyed the great selection of local pubs too. Look forward to welcoming you back to Ty Coets. All the best Property Owner

• "The only thing incorrect about the listing was there was not a castle view - unless you had a very long neck :-) I would also suggest putting a note in the guestbook about the address - some of the takeaway places had no idea where it was, and the street numbering is a bit confusing I think."

  It was otherwise an excellent stay and I would recommend it to anyone looking for a base in Caernavon.

  Hi David, thanks for your feedback. The Menai Holidays description refers to the castle as a highlight which as you point out is viewable from around the corner of Ty Coets and a casual 4 mins walk away. However, there is a view of Castell bach (small castle) from the upstairs lounge of Ty Coets, across the boats in the river. Some Sat Navs have a problem with the address, although googlemaps is fine. I will add the 3 word geographic reference, meals.fool.finger, to the guest book. The mural of Blodeuwedd on the side of the building is a good locally well-known reference point too. Hope you had a fab time in Caernarfon and North Wales. Thanks for recommending Ty Coets as a base in Caernarfon. All the best Property Owner

• "We had a lovely stay at the coach house."

  It was comfortable and lovely and quiet and clean.very close to the town center the castle and all the other attractions.lively walks along the bay coast. House is lovely and enough for 2 ppl and a baby lol.teh owner provided high chair and travel cot and it was helpful and lovely.heating worked as we needed it it was rainy when we went. I would only say maybe a small rug in the bedroom is nice and a rug in the living room but other then that it was nice and cosy and we really enjoyed our time there we will be back.anita Anthonie and Baby Max Marais

  Hi Anita, happy to hear that the three of you had a lovely stay at the Coach House. Glad you enjoyed the revamped castle visit too. Look forward to welcoming you back to Caernarfon again. All the best Property Owner

• "Great location for touring the area and the house is in a very quiet part of the town but only 5 minutes from the castle and town centre with a good selection of pubs, restaurants and takeaways."

  The price reflects the facilities provided, my only disappointment was the heating. I would describe it as bearable rather than comfortable, and when an increase in temperature was requested due to forecast cold weather it was 3 days before the open plan property reached a comfortable temperature.

  Hi Ian, thanks for the feedback. Glad you enjoyed the location and facilities. Each room is thermostatically controlled to ensure a consistent temperature. Thanks for contacting the Menai team; they have now replaced the batteries in the thermostats and it’s heating up perfectly. Apologies that this was an issue during your stay. Hope you’ll consider a stay at the Coach House in the future Property Owner

• "Owner is lovely and is very helpful."

  Property is great - the washing machine/dryer works very well, and the fridge has a large ice box. The bedroom is small but has a comfy bed and a hang rail for clothes, with a bedside table on each side. Upstairs living room is very cosy - the two one-seaters were great. I'd definitely stay here again.

  Mairead, you’re very kind. Glad you enjoyed the one seaters by the lounge window. Hope to see you again in Caernarfon Property Owner

• "This is a quirky but delightful house within a couple of minutes walk of Caernarfon old town."

  It was great to be able to park strainght outside the door. The bedroom is a little 'tight' getting around the bed but all adds to the charm. Lovely view of the river from the upstairs loungs little eagret and heron usually on display. Great selection of books for when the Welsh summer sun turns to liquid format. We had a great week in the property.

  Thanks for your feedback David. I hope you’ll consider returning for the Oyster Catcher nesting season on top of the red building next to the river - it’s an annual highlight on Segontium Terrace Property Owner

  Thanks for your feedback Lesley. Nice large wooden blinds for the kitchen and living room were installed in Dec 2021 making it super cozy in the evenings and providing a nice range of shade when sunny. Hope you’ll visit the Coach House again Property Owner

• "Great location, minutes away from everything Caernarfon has to offer."

  Clean and modern throughout. Everything we needed was there (including some great local coffee and beers in the fridge). Only downside was the street can be noisy at times, considering it is not a through road, only a minor niggle though. Would recommend as a great base to explore this part of Wales.
