Amaya Care Homes has purchased Ty Coch Nursing Home in Llanishen, Cardiff, which was originally a Victorian dwelling that has been extended over the years and is now registered for 68 residents offering nursing and dementia care.

Previously owned by Linc Cymru, which merged with Pobl Group in April last year, Ty Coch was brought to market as part of a strategic divestment of Linc’s care portfolio, which also included Penylan in Cardiff and Capel Grange in Newport which have also been sold as going concerns. 

Amaya aims to increase its care services across South Wales and this deal follows its acquisition of Capel Grange from Linc in January this year. This acquisition brings the total number of elderly beds under Amaya’s ownership in South Wales to 196.

Rajan Gupta, chief executive at Amaya Care Homes, said: “The acquisition of Ty Coch is another exciting milestone in Amaya’s growth across the region. The care home shares our commitment to high-quality, relationship-centred care and we are excited to welcome their team into our family. Together, we will continue to provide exceptional care and support to our residents and their families, building on the strong community ties established by Ty Coch.”

Gary Hortop, director of care and support at Linc, commented: “We are incredibly proud of what we have achieved at Ty Coch, providing much-needed care to the community of Llanishen and beyond. We are confident that, under Amaya’s stewardship, Ty Coch will continue to thrive and provide the very best care to our elderly population.”

Business property advisor Christie & Co facilitated the sale.

Ty Coch was sold for an undisclosed price.
