"Another great stay at this fabulous cottage."
It really is a lovely place to stay if you love the moors and the beautiful North Yorkshire coast. Welcoming and so cosy, with everything you need in the kitchen. Comfortable bed and plenty of soft towels. Dan is always around if you need anything or fancy a chat. Paddock is enclosed and safe for your furry friend. Can’t wait to go back. It really feels like home from home. Thank you Dan.
Really great to see you guys again and thank you for leaving the cottage so clean and tidy. I’m keeping my response short at the moment as the ends seem to keep disappearing into the ether-net somewhere

"What a little gem, Dan has done a fantastic job fitting out this property he was also a great host."
Cottage is in a great location to explore Scarborough Whitby Robin hood bay and many more. We stayed end of September for a week with Skye our dog the paddock at the back was great for skye to run around. Would highly recommend ps One of the most comfortable beds we've ever slept in.
Thank-you Dan
Hey there you guys. I’m so happy that you enjoyed your stay here in Snainton. It was great to meet you both and Skye. Hope to maybe see you again sometime.
P.s. next time if you come again the cottage should have been redecorated as planned. And I’ve bought some new knives for the cottages that came with their own sharpening sheaths. And someone else asked me about charging electric vehicles after you had. I’m presently trying to figure out a fair way of allowing guests to charge up (if they have a charger that will connect to the mains). So now you’ve no excuse not to visit again

Upstairs downstairs is a great cottage in a good position to explore both the coast and the moors. Everything was as expected and the welcome goodies were exceptional . The cottage was spotless with a lovely comfy bed and big fluffy towels.
Dan is a great host and Bob the cat was very friendly.
It was so great to see you both again and I’m so glad that you both enjoyed another stay here in Yorkshire. It was a pleasure having you to stay. Perfect guests! And as always I can’t overstate how much I appreciate how spotlessly clean you had left the cottage. It really does make my life that little easier on a Friday changeover after a busy week of work. I didn’t even find any black and white fluff from Bob to hoover up!

"The cottage is beautifully designed and Dan has done a fantastic job of not only saving an old building but making it really quite special."
His passion for it's restoration may have been long, and perhaps difficult, but it is something of a work of art. From the beautifully neat exterior you enter a nicely presented reception area with a beautifully designed spiral staircase, all very cleverly fitted to make the most of the space and leading to the upstairs living area. The kitchen is contemporary with lovely, quality, wooden worktops, presumably all locally made. We love cooking and it was fantastic to find every possible utensil (except one!) available and we thoroughly enjoyed working there as much as we enjoyed relaxing in the sitting room. And talking of relaxing, the bath, and bathroom, are wonderful too - warm and welcoming and plenty of towels and even flannels. The bed is amazingly comfortable, only a double but allowing plenty of space around it so you don't feel hemmed in.
The garden is lovely and compact with a couple of seating areas perfect for catching the sun and keeping out of the breeze, whilst giving a bit of privacy. I was especially impressed with the clever design and spacing of the hedging - who's idea was that?! It works so well in what is quite a compact space. And then there's the communal garden with its lovely views across the fields and paddocks towards the hills of which, incidentally, you get an equally great view from the living area of the cottage.
Finally (phew, I hear you sigh) the welcome both from Dan himself, and from the nice array of goodies provided, was just just perfect, all very thoughtfully done and beautifully presented.
Thank you for making us feel so welcome in your lovely little cottage.
Andy and Laura

Absolutely every was top notch, all we had to do was take our clothes and food, everything else was taken care of, snacks, tea and coffee, cookies, wine etc. bedding was brilliant, slept like a baby, honestly, better than at home.

Great views, great location and what more can we say. We’re hoping to go again soon. Dan is a very lovely warm hearted guy, thank you ☺️
Hi guys! You made it home safely (hopefully in plenty of time for the parents meeting).
So, so happy to hear that you both enjoyed your stay here in the wind and rain lashed North. It was a pleasure meeting you and I really do hope you consider visiting again.

It was lovely to have you come to stay in Snainton. Just sorry that I didn’t see much more of you (due to me and my wretched back).

He might even enjoy a trip to watch the motorbike racing at Oliver’s Mount which happens 4 times a year? That’s a good full day’s entertainment for a fairly reasonable price.

A lovely barbecue area with gas barbecue.
It’s well situated to visit Scarborough, Whitby, Robin Hoods Bay, Castle Howard and many other beautiful places.
Dan is a great host. We will certainly return in the future.

Very well presented , comfy and warm (Janruary). Well located to explore the area...Scarborough a very nice place with some great Victoriana and quite a buzz to it. Whitby a gem and fish n chips mmmmm...
The local Downe Arms in Wykeham serves very good food in a nice ambience.. and nothing is too much trouble for Daniel the owner of the cottage...all in all a great place to stay and explore a very interesting part of the country.,,,
Another Sykes winner.....!

"This cottage was a real find."
I cannot believe how clean it is! It's just great, so comfortable Dan has thought of everything. We loved it, the location was excellent, within striking distance of most everything - coast, forest, scenic drives, views, really good fish & chips (next door), local Shop (all of two minutes walk) which was excellent e.g. my favourite wine at £3 less than a supermarket I use at home. On our first day they actually put some out the back for me. And such friendly people both there and in the village. Bus stop about 1 minute away either direction and if you are lucky you will pick up en-route some fresh produce, raspberries, green beans and blackcurrants being sold outside a house but be quick, they go fast! The cottage backs onto paddocks and we were very lucky to attend the Stables open event on Sunday, great fun, and we enjoyed seeing the foal each morning. Lovely garden facility and again Dan has thoughtfully provided rustic tables and chairs for guests. Neither of us are particularly cat lovers but the two resident cats had me eating out of their paws, hello Spikey and Norman. And as for Dan, well he's one of life's characters! Thanks Dan - your cottage is lovely!

"Gorgeous area."
Not an ideal cottage for families with small children as stairs are quite steep and open to falls. Good for older ones but very low walls / extracted fan on oven - hit my head countless number of times.
Gorgeous garden to rear of property though you need to keep checking for dog poo - had a few accidents in children’s footwear.
Also falling piece of wood from
Window which narrowly missed my daughters head.
Apart from these few issues it was nice and comfy.

"This is a brilliant property in a brilliant location and perfect for families relaxing."
Dan the owner is very polite and always on hand for any support or advice. This is our second visit to this property and we just love it. Great location to escape and enjoy a relaxing break. Fish and chip shop next door is outstanding and we visited the local golf centre which also provided foot golf which the kids just loved. We also visited Alphamere Swimming Pool in Scarborough, wow what an experience. The outdoor pool was just like having a hot bath!! Fantastic. We will certainly be visiting again. Thank You Sykes.

"Outstanding fantastic cottage !"
Located in a great base for walking the Yorkshire Coast and the North Yorkshire Moors
Luxurious,spotlessly clean,well equipped and extremely comfortable. Fantastic attention to the little extras that really made us feel welcome.
Regularly take 3-4 cottage holidays a year and Upstairs Downstairs by far one of the best
A real credit to the owner
Will definitely return
