The Old Post Office at Holmfirth Reviews

This is a great property in a great location, and perfect for our annual holiday with three families. We had a lovely inperson welcome when we arrived and Holmfirth itself is a picturesque town with lots of places a short drive away.
Chelsea
The house was lovely. Very spacious and just as described. The location was perfect.
Great property for large groups, wellequipped kitchen, clean wellmaintained large hot tub. Outdoor dining area would be great in warmer weather.
Eileen
This is an excellent house for a large group there were 13 of us It has a lovely warm atmosphere and is very cosy. Every where was scrupulously clean, including all the crockery and glasses. Parking is easy at the house, though it's only about a 10 minute walk down into Holmfirth and there is a bus back up the big hill . There's also an excellent pub The Farmers Arms just around the corner.
Nicola
Fantastic house in a brilliant location hot tub was really good and enjoyed by us all. Farmers pub round the corner is welcoming, elephant & the castle in town is also really nice. Lovely village and all 10 of us ages 4 76 had a lovely Xmas there!
Our The Old Post Office at Holmfirth review: The old post office was a great holiday house to stay in. There were 14 of us in total and two dogs ranging from age four to seventy. The rooms were spacious and comfortable and plenty of ensuites to keep everyone happy. There was plenty to explore in the local area and we even joined in a pub quiz at the local pub Farmers arms. We took up the recommendation of eating out at Harveys as a family and really enjoyed our time. Being a large family we did cook and eat frequently at the house, the dining room was a great space to eat together I would say that a little time and effort is probably needed to restock the house with updated kitchen appliances, but a huge bonus was the use of two dish washers, as a big family this was much needed. The communication was excellent from the hosts and all in all we had a wonderful family holiday in Holmfirth. One little niggle worth noting was that the washing machine was not in full repair and had a faulty sensor, this meant constant resetting when reporting this we were told it was an existing issue. My recommendation is for the owners to simply buy a new one. With the price we paid for this holiday home we felt it tiresome dealing with a faulty appliance. With that being said I dont want to end on a negative note this was a great house with plenty of space for all of us to enjoy a relaxing week together.

We went as an extended family for my dads 70th and had a fantastic time. The house was even nicer than expected. The kids loved the hot tub and we had such a fun evening playing pool in the basement. The person looking after the property was helpful and easy to contact. Holmfirth itself was beautiful with lots of little cafes, shops and pubs. We would happily come back.
After making the original booking, we had a lot of trouble contacting Sykes Cottages. For example, when trying to pay our balance, we could not find our booking on the website. Contact through phone calls was impossible. We ended up phoning Snaptrip, the umbrella company. In contrast, the management company was very easy to contact and responses were speedy. An example was to request a cot and highchair, which we could only do 24 hours before arrival ie couldnt contact Sykes so had to rely on management company of the property. We were very lucky there was availability of these items. Generally, the property was great. Lots of room and good facilities. However, we had one very disappointing aspect. There were 9 toilets, 7 showers and 2 baths and the owners only provided 3 hand soaps. For the money we paid, we could not understand why at least small bars of soap were not available. Why were there shower gel dispensers on the wall and nothing in them? Were the guests expected to fill them?
Sharon
We had a wonderful stay. The house is absolutely beautiful and really comfortable. Rooms are spacious and beds are cozy. There was a few small critiques from all nine of us who stayed. There is no hand wash in any of the rooms and we think there should be given the price etc. Also, just small things like salt and pepper, kitchen roll, tbags and sugar would be great in the kitchen. There was a lovely welcome box with a few bits in which was great. The fridge leaked in the kitchen to the point where the floor was sodden so we had to leave a towel down the whole time. The showers have no pressure but everything else was superb. Thank you so much for having us. X

Found the property not as described. Rubbish left in bins, dust and cobwebs, outside area not clean, bbq not clean. The living room only has seating for 7 adults, we were a party of 11 adults that were expected to sit on the floor on bean bags. I would also like to say how disappointed we were with your company, when I booked, the week we would have preferred was to expensive so we opted for the later week at 4024 only to find you advertising that week for 3500
