Mr Lincoln

“Had a lovely weeks stay at the coach house.”

Warm, comfortable and surprisingly quiet considering it sits on a main road.

Warm, comfortable and surprisingly quiet considering it sits on a main road. Despite being out of the country, Richard was very accommodating and quickly rectified a small issue we were having with the tv. Would definitely recommend!

“From a personal position we had to cut this holiday short and return home on Tuesday 15th because we could no longer put up with the constant stream of traffic going past the property what the pictures on your site fail to show is the proximity of the house to a very busy main road possibly things could be improved with double glazing, but that of course would not help the fact that you cannot sit outside to enjoy the garden due not only to the noise but also the pollution .”

We feel very let down over this holiday and feel strongly that the fact of a busy road on the doorstep should have been in the property description .

- Mr Wright, September 2020

I am terribly sorry to hear of your comments. I would like to point out that the property is in fact situated within proximity of a B road which you can see on the property map. We have not heard of any complaints previously about this before. There are trees surrounding the property which should help muffle out some of the sound coming from the traffic. I am sorry that this was not to your expectations but would like to thank you for your feedback. Customer feedback is very important to help us continually improve our standards.

“We loved the cottage from the minute we arrived and were deeply in love by the time we left.”

Our hosts Richard and Elizabeth were very hospitable from day one up until our departure day. We had disabled friends visit us for the day and the owners let us use their drive so that access was all one level. Above and beyond expectation. Definitely going back, again and again and again...

“It is the second time we have been to the Coach House because it is a Brilliant relaxing place to stay, there is so much to do in the area and the owners are so welcoming as are the local people.”

Looking forward to our next holiday with you.

- Mrs Holmes, July 2019
Mr Bricklebank April 2019

“A lovely holiday cottage on the outskirts of Holmfirth.”

The location is handy for all the amenities, less than a 5 minute downhill walk into the town centre. It is a perfect base for a relaxing week away, the cottage is furnished to a very good standard and is warm and comfortable. Highly recommended!

- Mr Bricklebank, April 2019
Mr Bicknell March 2019

“Good afternoon - the cottage was exactly what we hoped it would be and as fellow holiday cottage owners we know exactly how difficult it is to keep everything up to scratch.”

The flat was immaculate. We were most impressed that although the owners were away during our stay we were still made to feel welcome and and looked after and the lovely Lyndsay was on the phone when we were particularly daft and could not work the hob! We very much look forward to returning in the future.

“Couldn't Fault It”

A detached cottage next door to - but entirely separate from - the owners' house. Beautifully furnished with everything one could possibly need. Most of the fittings were brand new - television, fridge freezer, washing machine, beds and I think most of the furniture. The house is set well back from a fairly busy road so, as a light sleeper, I was concerned this might be a problem. However, it was not; it is very quiet once inside the cottage. The beautiful village of Holmfirth is a short walk down the hill. There is off road parking outside the cottage. The owners were charming and most helpful. I will definitely be back.

- Ian J, February 2019
Mrs Barber September 2018

“The cottage was spacious and warm and kitchen well equipped.”

Garden delightful. The location was ideal for where we wanted to visit. However unfortunately the entrance to the property was in a difficult place on the narrow busy road. We also found the bed a little small and the TV would not work properly on a rainy windy night. It was a shame as the owners were very welcoming but compared to other Sykes cottages there were some negatives.

- Mrs Barber, September 2018
Mr Hannant July 2018

“The cottage was spotlessly clean, well cared for, comfortable and a pleasure to come back to.”

The owners were friendly and helpful

Local people extremely friendly and helpful We are definitely going back.

“Very relaxing with great facilities and hosts”

Mr Mills May 2018

“We had a great time at the Coach House.”

It is in an ideal position only a couple of minutes walk to the centre of Holmfirth. Holmfirth is a lovely town with lots of cafes, bars and independent shops. We liked the fact that there were no chains of coffee shops like Costa or Caffee Nero. We had great weather and a folk festival was on so plenty of free entertainment. We would recommend the Coach House as a base for exploring this area as the Peak District is only a few miles away and is a beautiful part of the country. The owners Richard and Elizabeth are lovely, they live next door and are on hand if you need anything but not intrusive. All in all a lovely holiday.

- Mr Mills, May 2018
Mrs Baxter April 2018

Miss Taylor September 2017

Mrs Macpherson August 2017

“The Coach house was a warm welcoming home from home.”

Secluded rear garden ideal for lazing in. Warm welcome from the owners who also popped in to say goodbye. All in all a great break away for rest and relaxation.

- Mrs Macpherson, August 2017

About the location

HOLMFIRTH

Peak District National Park 3 miles; Meltham 4 miles

The old traditional Pennine town of Holmfirth is situated in the heart of the beautiful Holme Valley, on the edge of the West Yorkshire Pennines. Made famous by The Last of The Summer Wine TV series, there is more to Holmfirth than Compo and Nora Battye’s stockings! The ‘Picturedrome’, the North of England’s finest live music venue attracts many famous bands and is located right in the centre of the town. The pelotons from the Tour de France 2014 and the Tour de Yorkshire have both been through this quaint Holme Valley town en route to the iconic 524 metre Holme Moss climb two miles away. It is in these hills where cycling’s triple Olympic Medalist Ed Clancy grew up. Holmfirth also has a good public swimming pool and fitness centre, parks and some super shops and restaurants. The people here are friendly, the streets are quaint and the scenery is breathtaking. The Peak District National Park with its moors, dales, forests, lakes and reservoirs is also easily accessible. The Upper Derwent Valley, home to the spectacular Ladybower and Derwent reservoirs, and where the famous 617 ‘Dambusters’ Squadron practiced the audacious bombing raid on the Ruhr valley in 1943, is only a short scenic drive away. Slightly further is Chatsworth, the stately home of the Duke and Duchess of Devonshire, and situated close to the market town of Bakewell, the home of Bakewell Puddings. The Yorkshire Sculpture Park, The National Coal Mining Museum, Wentworth Castle, and the Hepworth Gallery are also within short drives away and well worth a visit.
