It was so comfortable, well equipped, and extra thoughtful touches such as delicious sweet treats on arrival made us feel very welcome. Snape is ideally situated for a range of interesting day trips such as the Wensleydale Cheese Visitor Centre, Aysgarth Falls, Fountains Abbey and the cottage itself is right next door to Thorp Perrow Arboretum.Highly recommend and we hope to go back another time.

I would recommend the cottage without hesitation. I certainly wouldn't recommend Sykes as their communications are simply a disgrace. I spoke with one of their agents with a query and was promised a call back, after three days I eventually spoke with another agent who also promised a call back and an answer to my query. I have heard nothing from Sykes since, in my opinion this is an absolute lack of customer care. No more Sykes for me.
