Guests that stayed at this property said
The property was generally found to be clean with a modern feel. However, there were instances of a dirty toilet and dusty headboards mentioned, suggesting room for improvement in cleanliness standards.
The location is highly regarded, with the property being easy to find, offering lots of parking, and situated conveniently for visiting nearby attractions. Local walks, pubs, and eateries are within walking distance, adding to the appeal.
While the property was spacious and the dining area was well-received, there were several complaints about uncomfortable mattresses and a lack of hot water in some rooms, which affected the overall comfort for guests.
The property boasts great communal spaces and a large kitchen, but several reviews cited issues with maintenance such as non-working showers, inadequate heating, and poor WiFi. These issues indicate that the facilities and maintenance could be better managed.
There is no mention of gifts or special touches that would indicate thoughtfulness from the property owners towards the guests. Therefore, this category cannot be scored.

! The house was very spacious, felt private with a lovely garden at the back. All the rooms were much bigger than the pictures suggested with lots of lovely communal areas for everyone to gather around. We had a wonderful stay at Plas Coch and will definitely be back!

We had a fantastic stay and were happy with all the amenities provided. The 4 stars is because the cooker was quite slow to use especially when making food for a big group and in some rooms the tap water was very slow and the rooms headboards were quite dusty. Overall would definitely come back as it was a perfect place for a big group to have their own space yet gather together to socialise in the dining and living room. Also, it is close to loads of family friendly activities and the beautiful coast.

But on the second day the hot water failed making conditions difficult for washing, personal hygiene and dish washing (1 working shower for the group). Telephone calls & texts to the owner's representative failed to resolve the situation; which continued for the rest of our holiday, Since April we have sought compensation, but the continued best efforts by Sykes for mediation have been ignored by the owner's representative.
