Fans left divided after Kelvin Fletcher and wife Liz make Instagram announcement
Kevin and Liz Fletcher have revealed their holiday cottage does not allow pets – causing a mixed reaction among fans. The couple took to Instagram to let fans know their renovated property is not dog friendly on Friday (February 7). The pair said they received a 'crazy' response after making their renovated cottage on their family farm in Wincle, Cheshire available for let to holidaymakers.

But the couple recently took to Instagram to reveal their popular home does not allow pets – upsetting some dog lovers in the comments. 'I get asked this question a lot so thought this may need to be a grid post,' they said in a post. 'We love dogs but not in the cottage! The post shows a screenshot of a fan asking why the property is not dog friendly. The pair answered: 'The cottage had been finished to the highest standard, I know people love their dogs but I love my furniture and beautifully smelling cottage more!' Fans were quick to voice their support in the comments, one saying: 'Absolutely the right decision. I never book a place if dogs are allowed to stay there.' Another added: 'Someone might have an allergic reaction to dogs, I love dogs but always book a cottage which doesn't allow animals,' while another said: 'You shouldn't have to justify your decision. Dogs frighten many animals and many animals frighten dogs. It's not worth putting your farm animals through any discomfort or dealing with guests who's dogs get spooked.' However, some didn't agree with the statement, saying: 'Feel I have to reply - it's your cottage your rules BUT….. not all dogs smell and actually some are very well behaved - bit unfair to tarnish them all the same - I do understand though - there are others (and owners too) who are not - so I understand.' Another said: 'I'd rather stay somewhere that allows dogs rather than kids!!!,' while one fan added: 'Some people smell to. Just saying.' One commenter said: 'Don't think this was the best choice of wording. You love your material things more than someone loves their living pet.' The couple's show, Fletchers' Family Farm is now in its second series and broadcasts every Sunday morning on ITV1. It offers a glimpse into the Fletcher's family life living in Wincle, in the hills above Congleton and Macclesfield. The couple resides on their expansive 120-acre farm alongside their four young offspring. Fans of the show have watched Kelvin, who once portrayed the character of farmer Andy Sugden in Emmerdale, embrace his actual farming duties. He said during the latest episode: "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." The overnight stay can be booked via Sykes Holiday Cottages where it's already been racking up five star reviews. One reviewer, Rich, said 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."
