Emlyn and Chrisβ were absolutely wonderful during our residency at the Leeds Grand. There is a very reliable and quick bus into the city centre, and an Uber is roughly Β£6-8 in the evening after the show.
The digs are absolutely wonderful and felt quite literally like a home away from home. Very grateful to them both for hosting me. Iβd be sure to return if I find myself back in Leeds!
Thank you both.

Really lovely hosts and know when to chat/give you space ! Amazing house will definitely be back when Iβm next in Leeds. Itβs a little far from the theatre but so worth it for the space and gorgeous decor. Thank you! X
1st Jun 2026
Thanks Molly. You're welcome back anytime.
I had a great stay. Out of the city centre which is nice, but easy to uber in! Really nice to have your own space and kitchen!
31st May 2026
A brilliant week in Leeds! The top floor is perfect for all needs and feels entirely self-contained. Would recommend!
20th Apr 2026
Thanks for the review, you'd be very welcome back anytime π
Absolutely lovely digs! I had the pleasure of staying here while in Leeds on the 'Tina musical' tour. Large kitchen\diner with everything you need, big bright window with lots of plants! Cosy comfortable bed, excellent shower! Emlyn and Chris are friendly, easygoing hosts and made me feel very welcome. Thanks for a great stay!
10th Apr 2026
Thanks Dave, lovely to have you with us π
Fabulous digs! Top floor to yourself, free on street parking and about a 10 min drive or 35 min walk to the Grand, plenty of buses too. Such lovely welcoming hosts and lots of privacy - super comfy bed too and kitchen to yourself plus en suite, canβt recommend enough!
4th Mar 2026
Aww, thanks Alex, lovely to have you with us.
Fantastic place to stay! The entire top floor to yourself. Gorgeous decor, a comfy double bed with an ensuite. Great shower. The kitchen has everything you need for self contained and is a great space to relax in. Thoroughly recommend.
14th Jan 2026
Thanks π
Emlyn and Chris were so lovely and their home was well stocked and conveniently located! The bus stop is about 5 mins away and quite regular so I had no trouble getting to the theatre and back. Very quick commute, walkable if you prefer. The room was very comfortable and the kitchen was great for saving on eating out. Would 100% stay again. And Rita the cat was a great bonus.

8th Sep 2025
Thanks for you kind words mate π
I had a great stay here - the top floor of the house felt like my own flat. The kitchen facilities were fantastic and the bathroom was great too, plus free parking! The house is 35min walk to Leeds Grand, but the buses are very easy and taxis are very reasonable when heading home at night. Definitely recommended.

Thanks Katie, lovely to have you with us x
I had a lovely stay here and I look forward to coming back.
Emlyn and Chris were lovely hosts and easy to have a chat with.

Thanks Isobel x
Absolutely beautiful digs, with everything you could ever want! So lovely to be self-contained and very bright and sunny. It's a good 35 minute walk to the Grand along lots of main roads but sharing ubers home with a friend made it not a problem at night. Thanks for a great stay!

Great hosts!

6th Apr 2025
Maddy was a lovely guest. Probably the quietest we've ever had π We'd welcome Maddy back anytime!
Hands down one of the best places I've stayed in over an entire 9-month tour! Emlyn and Chris are superb hosts who have really thought of everything. I stayed for 5 nights and slept soundly in their quiet, spacious top floor apartment. The space is cosy, light and spotless. The kitchen/living space has everything you need to prepare meals and wind down after a day at the theatre. Emlyn and Chris are so friendly and I canβt thank them enough for such a great stay! Thank you :)

This was my second time staying at Sholebroke Towers and it was just as pleasant as I remember! A well equipped kitchen and ensuite bedroom at the top of the house, with excellent and communicative hosts. I would highly recommend staying here!
19th Mar 2025
Aww, thanks. It was really nice to have you with us again, see you next time :-)
A beautifully quirky house with superb self-contained accommodation on the top floor. Lots of space, an excellent shower, and a very comfortable bed. Emlyn and Chris were lovely hosts. My only regret is that I never met Rita!
10th Mar 2025
Aww, thanks for the kind words Phillip. The only way to resolve the issue of meeting Rita is you'll have to stay with us again π
Had a really lovely stay, the digs are gorgeous and have everything you need, would definitely recommend!

Our pleasure Jason, it was lovely to Gabe you with us.
Really fantastic digs! Beautifully decorated home and having sole use of the top floor was brilliant. The kitchen/living space is well equipped and homely and the bedroom was very comfortable. Would stay here again in a heartbeat! Thanks for a super stay Emlyn!

Thanks for the lift very review Rachel π
A great place, friendly hosts and lots of links to get into town. Would recommend and stay again!
10th Jun 2024
Thanks Eleanor, you'd be very welcome to stay again π
Hi. Lovely quirky digs at the top of a fun and funky house. (Mind your head on the canoe as you go up the stairs)! The two rooms were delightfully eccentric in their furnishings, but the kitchen was very well equipped and the bed very comfortable.
The location is good - 7 minutes to the car park on the corner of Trafalgar St & Brunswick St. (Β£5/day if you're at The Grand).
Hosts Emlyn & Chris were cheerful and chatty but not intrusive.
Highly recommended. I'd certainly stay there again.
28th May 2024
Aww, thanks Nick you'd be very welcome again π
I had a fantastic 2 weeks staying in Emlyn's place. It is really beautifully presented, very comfortable, and clean. Chris and Emlyn were really friendly and helpful. The flat is a 35 min walk to Leeds Grand Theatre, or a short bus ride. I had such a lovely stay, and would love to stay again if I return to Leeds!
13th May 2024
Aww, thanks Beth. It was great having you with us and you're welcome back anytime π
I had a really wonderful stay in Emlyn and Chris' top floor flat. They are both incredibly friendly and welcoming and the rooms upstairs super comfortable. Lovely big living/kitchen room with all the facilities you could need for cooking. The bed was incredibly comfy. Ensuite is small, but has a wonderful overhead shower. Free parking on the street never got busy. An easy 5-10min drive into town (park at Trafalgar street for a theatre rate if you tell them you're working at the theatre)
4th May 2024
Great week at Sholebroke Terrace - Emlyn and Chris were the perfect hosts and were welcoming, helpful but never intrusive. I was sorry that Rita the cat left me alone...maybe she could smell my cat on my clothes?! The accommodation was clean, spacious, beautifully and thoughtfully furnished and a real "home from home" - I was very comfortable! I would definitely recommend these digs! Thank you Emlyn and Chris.
15th Apr 2024
Awww, thanks for the lift very review Julia. It was really nice to meet you π
A wonderful week in a lovely little flat with an even more lovely cat. Emlyn and Chris were just fantastic hosts. Thank you both for an awesome week!
9th Sep 2023
Thanks! π
Digs that dreams are made of!! Cosiest bed, gorgeous shower and coolest decor of any digs I've stayed in. Easy 30 minute walk to to Leeds Grand. A* digs, I wish more were like this, it really makes a difference to your week when you're in great, homely digs. Thank you so much!
16th Aug 2023
Aww, Laura. Thanks so much for your review, it means so much to us cos we really want our place to feel like home for people while they stay with us. We appreciate that life on the road can be tough so want people to be as comfortable as possible while they're with us π

3rd Aug 2023
Thanks Rebecca π
One of the best digs Iβve ever stayed in!! Having your own en-suite bedroom, as well as a kitchen/lounge space was just incredible. Chris and Emlyn are wonderful hosts, and I canβt fault a thing!
23rd Jul 2023
Lovely having you stay with us mate and thanks for your kind words.

22nd Jun 2023

Fantastic digs in Leeds. Feels self contained, fully equipped kitchen and even a washing machine up on the top floor. Fantastic shower. Easy bus into town. Would highly highly recommend.
3rd May 2023
Really lovely hosts, very understanding of the industry and willing to help however they could. Very accessible by bus or a 30mins walk (uphill going back from town so can take longer).
23rd Apr 2023
Thanks for your kind words π
I had an amazing 2 weeks here - this is high spec - and honestly felt like self contained. Hosts are lovely but I didn't see them much - everything you need on the top floor all to yourself. Very clean, loads of space, Highly recommended!!!
