There are other established properties along the lane, but The Red House, is set back well back and secluded by its mature trees. An individual house, built in the 1920s, with a timeless design which has provided a fabulous family home. There is lots of space and individual rooms in which people can be together, or find a quiet space in another part of the house. This facility was invaluable when the children were young as they were able to have their friends around to have space to pursue individual interests.” “Although in reasonable condition when we came to live here, several unseen, practical, tasks were carried out. Of course new kitchen and bathrooms have been added, and the house has been totally refurbished. As we went along, we added our own style, comforts and luxuries for it to became the stylish, welcoming, home loved by everyone.” “Saying farewell will be difficult, but it is time to move elsewhere. So many happy memories are related to life spent here.” “Hoyland has a strong individual identity and is proud of its local amenities. Shopping is very convenient and there is a wide choice of schools and other education establishments all within easy reach. We have good pubs and restaurants, whilst sport and leisure facilities are outstanding. Nearby is Elsecar which boasts a heritage museum. The local transport network, whether by road or rail is first rate.” “The house is surrounded by its beautiful garden which has matured gracefully throughout the years and provides much colour and interest.. There are several areas in which to relax or to enjoy relaxed al fresco dining.” “The house and garden are perfection for celebrations and many have been held. We found it so easy to have a marquee here and, on one occasion, one hundred and twenty guests all enjoyed the occasion.”* * These comments are the personal views of the current owner and are included as an insight into life at the property.
