Emmerdale star Kelvin Fletcher’s Family Farm where you can stay for a break and how to book
Former Emmerdale star Kelvin Fletcher have opened up Stag Cottage to holidaymakers
Liz Fletcher, wife of former Emmerdale actor Kelvin Fletcher, has shared the overwhelming response they’ve received after opening their renovated cottage on their farm to holidaymakers.
On a recent episode of ITV’s Fletchers’ Family Farm, Liz revealed that the success of Stag Cottage had “gone above and beyond our expectations”. The popular show, now in its second series, airs every Sunday morning on ITV1, giving viewers an insight into the Fletcher family’s life near Leek, under the shadow of the Roaches. The couple live on their sprawling 120-acre farm with their four young children.
Fans have watched as ex Emmerdale star Kelvin, who once played farmer Andy Sugden in Emmerdale, takes on real-life farming duties.
During the latest episode, Kelvin explained: “Like a lot of farmers we have to diversify to generate extra income to support our livestock and this year one of our most profitable streams has come from our cottage that we renovated and converted for people to stay in.”
Liz then shared with viewers: “Since we put the cottage up for rent as a holiday let, it has just gone crazy. We put it online for about two days, and the year literally sold out. So, we’ve now got bookings going into 2025. It’s just gone above and beyond our expectations.”, reports Stoke on Trent Live.
Kelvin affectionately refers to the cottage as his wife’s “baby”, joking that if he can’t find her on the farm, he knows exactly where she’ll be – “spending her time on her new obsession”.
Stag Cottage, a serene retreat nestled away from the hustle and bustle, is garnering high praise on Sykes Holiday Cottages, with guests leaving glowing five-star reviews. Rich, a recent visitor, shared last month: “The cottage had everything we needed and we received fast and helpful advice and support from Liz. I’d recommend Stag Cottage as an idyllic, quiet and cosy home for anyone’s restful holiday. Nearby we found nice villages, pubs and amazing walks. Many thanks for the opportunity to enjoy your lovely home.”
Another guest in November expressed their delight: “It feels so homely as soon as you step inside. Very cosy and welcoming, beautifully decorated. A real gem! Very comfortable beds. We love how quiet it is. Kelvin and Liz were lovely and friendly. We would love to stay again! Thanks from Jules and Chris.”
