Gilcar Farm Holiday Cottages
Located in the heart of the beautiful Yorkshire countryside, in Emley near Huddersfield, you'll find Gilcar Farm - a collection of three unique holiday cottages each renovated to the same high standards from previously unused farm buildings.

Two of the three self-catering cottages - The Blacksmiths Shop and Six Mistle - have been designed to allow easy access for wheelchair users, including level access, wet rooms/showers and ground floor bedroom facilities.These luxurious cottages also benefit from being within easy access of the M1, making them a great base from which to explore the whole of Yorkshire.
Services
Our luxury, self-catering holiday accommodation comprises three unique cottages - The Barn, The Six Mistle and The Blacksmiths Shop - all lovingly renovated from disused farm buildings in Emley near Huddersfield - the heart of the Yorkshire countryside.

Each cottage has its own unique characteristics, is self-contained and has been converted to the same luxurious standard and, being surrounded by open fields, they offer the perfect opportunity to relax in peace and quiet.
Three generations of the same family have worked at Gilcar Farm in Emley, and it still remains to this day a successful working dairy farm - in fact our Six Mistle holiday cottage used to be the milking parlour!. Now the main farm is located across a country lane from the holiday cottages - so you won't be disturbed when we start milking at 5am in the morning!
As a working dairy farm, as well as holiday cottage lets, we have found that we are increasingly receiving enquiries for work experience from students wishing to apply to University for veterinary or animal related courses. All of the above universities are wanting from an applicant, in a field which is becoming more competitive.
We have three self-catering, holiday cottages which have been converted from disused farm buildings in Emley near Huddersfield, into luxurious, modern holiday accommodation in the beautiful Yorkshire countryside.

The cottages are The Blacksmiths Shop (sleeps 7), The Barn (sleeps 8) and The Six Mistle (sleeps 8); all of which are two storey, with two (The Blacksmiths Shop and The Six Mistle) having a ground floor bedroom for disabled access, with space for a portable hoist to allow for easy transfer.

Went for a look around, we met Angela, the loveliest lady you could hope to meet. The Cottages far exceeded our high expectations. We booked then and there for a week next year. We can't wait. This will be a regular holiday location for us to visit friends and locations around Yorkshire

We have just spent 10 days in The Swallows, Gilcar Farm Holiday Cottages, and loved it! The amenities are excellent, it is comfortable and homely with great outside space if the weather is kind, and Angela is a really lovely lady and extremely helpful and friendly. We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves, and it made an excellent base for us as we were not only on a week's holiday but attending a family wedding in nearby Upper Denby as well. We were well looked after, all the indoor amenities that you need to make life comfortable, loads of stuff left in cupboards that we were welcomed to use if we wanted

Stayed in the Blacksmiths Shop at the end of July and had an absolutely wonderful time. Angela and Andrew have bent over backwards to help our daughter Jessica who wants to become a vet. The accommodation was excellent; spacious and wonderfully equipped and the area around Emley was picturesque.
