  • "The standard of everything is excellent, which made for a wonderful stay."

    We met Gerry who was super helpful and very knowledgeable about the history. Amazing welcome pack which was much appreciated We had an excellent nights sleep in super comfy beds. It is so peaceful and calm with stunning views overlooking the reservoir and beyond. Have already booked for next year.

  • "This is a delightful cottage in a stunning and semi-isolated location."

    It's perfect for friends and families or as a romantic retreat. I took my dad there for a few days and my sisters joined us for a night. I was blown-away by the whole place, as were my family members. The welcome pack was really excellent and meant we could stay in and get ourselves settled comfortably before going out and exploring. Our host, Jerry, was lovely. We really did want for nothing. I would go back in a heartbeat.

  • "Snave Cottage is a delight, it is just like the photos."

    Incredibly tasteful, cosy and well equipped. The location is breathtaking, instantly lifts your spirits. Jerry is super attentive, has great local knowledge, and very encouraging of our dogs having the best stay too and enjoying themselves on the many walking options. Grassington is the closest village for provisions, 10 mins by car, and plenty of dog friendly pubs serving food either until 14:00, or all day, could have stayed another 4 days!!!

  • "We booked all 3 properties together for a getaway with friends and had the best stay on Grimwith Reservoir."

    The properties themselves were spotless on arrival, and exactly as described on the listing. Jerry was very helpful and always on hand if we had any questions or wanted advice, and also got the hot tubs nice and hot for our arrival. We had everything we needed already there meaning we only had to bring clothes, food and drink, and the welcome hamper was also a nice touch. The location itself is amazing with a nice walking route around the reservoir and also longer routes to nearby villages where we found some great local pubs, shops and takeaways. This is my second time visiting this property and definitely won’t be the last. It really does cater for all and cannot recommend it enough!

    A very lovely peaceful place to stay and very comfortable. Very relaxing, a big sky to look at, fresh air and quiet. Jerry the caretaker is so lovely - we had a vole in the bathroom when we arrived and he helped us very quick - dont leave the front door open when you are in the hot tub as thats maybe how it got in! Super friendly people wherever you go.

    We could find absolutely no fault with the property, it was spacious, very clean and a 'home away from home'. It had all the amenities we could wish for, including a very welcome welcome hamper on our arrival. The lovely Jerry met us on our arrival and gave some very good advice on the area, places to see etc. Would definitely recommend and look forward to returning in the future.

    It was our first ever cottage holiday and we loved every minute. Gerry made us feel very welcome, provided a great hamper of goodies and helped us out with some tips and info. The cottage was modern, cozy and so relaxing with the hot tub - we used it every night. The location is simply stunning and an amazing place to escape to and enjoy the peace and quiet surrounded by nature. Plus added bonus nearby are some of the best cafes and pubs we’ve ever visited. We’re already planning our next stay at the cottage and can’t wait to return.

    Truly dog friendly, our dogs enjoyed their holiday as much as we did! The location is unbeatable with peace and quiet , beautiful views and an abundance of wildlife. The welcome hamper was really beneficial and having all the basics available from arrival made such a relaxed start to our break. The hot tub had much use and was a real extra touch of luxury. Jerry was so helpful and welcoming. We cannot recommend Snaves cottage highly enough and will definitely be back as there is so much more to explore in this beautiful area of the Dales .

  • "What an absolute find in a gorgeous setting away from everyone!"

    We loved it - our new home in the Dales! Service was spot on (thanks Jerry) and the cottage was as advertised. Lovely hamper packed with goodies when we arrived - and bread, bacon and fizz in the fridge too. When we needed a lighter and more firelighters for the fire we had them pretty much immediately. Cottage was clean to a high standard and literally everything we would need to enjoy the week in complete peace. The only drawbacks would be (and these are minor as some are just my preference): The very soft mattress which was not good for an aging back like mine - and the space between the mattress and bed in the main bedroom was a bit bigger than expected. A new mop bucket needed - there was a crack in the top which made it difficult to wring the mop out! Additionally the front door was difficult to close properly but Jerry was aware and in the process of changing this - similarly with one of the windows in the main area, water came in when the heavy rain hit and he is aware of this too. Our dogs loved the place and they are a large breed. Perfect setting for them but perhaps some sort of mat from the courtyard into the main bedroom to ensure carpets are not ruined. We took lots of towels to dry their feet etc but in the end didn't let them out that way just to be on the safe side! We will definitely return as soon as we can! A home from home for sure! The perfect setting to really get away from everything and get back to nature!

    The only negative comment is the lack of opening windows. It was a warm week when we stayed and the only way to get some ventilation was to open a door. Also, It would have been nice to have a small dining table for evening meals. Having said that we had a lovely peaceful stay.

    However on closer inspection it was far from that. The beds were uncomfortable. Fixtures came away from the wall. There was debris in the sofas. At least three of the windows/doors leaked rain water into the property. Door frame in right hand bedroom was rotten and a strong draft. During our stay they were resetting the soil tank so the toilets didn’t flush first time and the bathrooms smell or waste matter. The generator was topped up so we had several hours without power.

  • "The cottage is beautiful, and in a stunning location."

    The cottage has everything you need for a relaxing quiet break. We stayed there with my noise sensitive dog on bonfire weekend, the location is so remote I thought we would not here fireworks, we did hear a small display at the other end of the reservoir but it was so far away my dog wasn’t too bothered, she was more upset when the stove top kettle whistled when it boiled. The track to the log is terrible, the pot holes are very deep and for the majority of the road it is impossible to miss them. We arrived after it had gotten dark, the signage in and around the area is poor, I would recommend arriving in daylight if possible. The outside parking at the lodge is tight if there are guests in all 3 buildings, with large rocks ending the road. The cottage itself, was stunning, so peaceful and quiet, the other buildings were occupied while we were there, but we never saw or heard the other guests. The rooms are large and spacious with very comfortable beds, and the welcome hamper was a lovely touch. The cottage is situated in a very convenient area for exploring Yorkshire, you are very close to several attractions , we weren’t blessed with the best weather but we still enjoyed a couple of days out exploring. I would definitely recommend Snave cottage and we will look to book again in the future.

    The cottage was beautifully decorated and everything we needed to make our time there special. We had a couple of issues with the log burner to the hot tub but Jerry was excellent and helped us out wished we would have told him sooner but didn't want to bother him. The description was correct to the cottage however it stated a washing machine which we didn't have a very small thing but did think with us having a dog could have been useful at times. But it didn't impact our stay. We had an issue with the double bed in one of the bedrooms the bed collapsed on me and my daughter one night so made it uncomfortable and could really sleep in there so 3 in a bed on the last night but these things were minor it didn't rain on our time here. The welcome hamper was very generous and we appreciated and enjoyed this, would have been good with some dog treats like the other cottages had but again small things. We will book again in the future we loved it, very quiet very cozy and loved yorkshire.

  • "Spending the week at this beautiful cottage is everything we expected it to be."

    The location is quiet, just what we wanted but the road leading to the cottage could be improved. There are large potholes and it is very uneven and could certainly do with some improvement. Gerry was great, met us on our arrival and told us everything we needed to know. The welcome pack was fantastic and a lovely surprise especially the Prosecco and beer in the fridge. Thank you., overall we have been very happy with our stay. My only small criticism would be that we would have preferred an electric kettle and only one side of the toaster works. I did find the lid on the hot tub very heavy to lift for one person, it restricts the views and is awkward. A slated top would be much easier for one person to manage and give greater views. None of this however has stopped our enjoyment of the property though. A thoroughly enjoyable, relaxing break, would highly recommend if you don’t mind being off the beaten track.

Firstly, we had no WIFI most of the week due to a technical problem, this did impact our stay as the weather was poor and we wanted to be able to watch films etc. Secondly, there was a light on outside all night which shines directly into the bedroom even with the curtains closed. The bulb was powerful and it lights up the whole room all night. It was hard to sleep in such a lit up room.

    You get camping-style views with hotel-style luxuries. The 2 bedroom cottage was perfect for us (myself, wife, baby, my parents, their dog), with a relaxed communal space for the baby and dog to roam around in. 15 mins to Grassington in one direction, and Pateley bridge in the other. The access road around the reservoir is a little bumpy (due to necessary drainage channels) but we managed fine in regular cars (Honda jazz and Ford fiesta). Special mention to Jerry the manager who we saw during check in and check out and was very friendly and helpful. Hot tub takes a while to heat up but worked well even during a freak hail storm. 4.5 mile walking/jogging track around the reservoir starts just outside the cottage door.

  • "Lovely cottage inside, decorated to a high standard."

    The grounds leave a lot to be desired though. The hot tubs are in the car park and sit on decking above a rubble car park. The grounds are set in a nature reserve which sounds fantastic, although when renovating the cottages the building waste has been dumped on the grassed area, with plaster board, barbed wire and broken bricks everywhere. Not ideal with dogs. If the owners took the time to clean up this piece of land and remove the rubble it would be so much better.

    Many thanks for your feedback. If we may clarify that the land you have mentioned is moorland stone as opposed to ‘rubble’. This is behind the property on the same side as the hot tub. At the front of the property there is a courtyard and grassed areas that kids and dogs can play on. Property Owner

The rooms were comfortable and the cottage was in the perfect location which allowed us to relax just as we had hoped. We would highly recommend this property and can’t wait to book our next visit!

  • "This is the perfect weekend break!"

    From arrival there was a hamper full of treats and breakfast which was appreciated. The fridge was also stocked up on Prosecco and beer! The cottage itself is beautifully decorated and really makes you feel at home. The log burner is also a really nice touch and keeps you cosy all night. The hot tub is incredible at night, especially to look at the stars! I would 100% recommend this place and can’t wait to return

  • "Fantastic holiday home, only issue was the neighbours hot tub is a bit too close to one of the bedrooms but we spoke with Jerry and he said that’s being looked in to!"

    The welcome basket was such a lovely touch, the furnishings and finishing touches really made it feel like a luxury staycation. Make sure your car is alright for of track roads and bring your hiking boots! Beautiful part of the country - we even saw an owl.

  • "Absolutely gorgeous cottage in such a beautiful setting."

    The Welcome hamper on arrival was fantastic and such a lovely surprise that the fridge was stocked with essentials and of course Prosecco and beer! The cottage was beautifully and tastefully decorated and the furniture and furnishings were just lovely. The owner has developed this property to such a high standard. This contributed to such a lovely comfortable stay. Everything was catered for, even the provision of a dog bed! The walk around the reservoir is approximately 4-5 miles and we thoroughly enjoyed that. We will most certainly be making a return visit!

  • "Vetting of possible neighbours would be good as the master bedroom in this cottage is right next to the hot tub of the adjacent cottage."

    We had younger people staying next door for 3 nights who were keen to stay in the hot tub until the early hours. Hot water for a period of time to shower and wash up proved difficult, the water ran cold too quickly. Had to boil the kettle to wash up. The breakfast bar chairs are a bit too high meaning eating at the island felt like you were sat too high to eat comfortably. A coffee table or nest of tables in the lounge would be a good idea as there is nowhere to put drinks when sitting on the sofas except on the floor. This was ok for us but if someone had a dog or young children running around this could be a problem.

    From the welcome pack that greeted us on our arrival to the log burner for a cosy night in with a bottle of prosecco! The location was very rural but perfect for our giant dog who absolutely loved his weekend away. We would definitely recommend the cottage and will hopefully return again. Thanks again for a lovely weekend break!!

  • "Wow! We had such a fabulous week at Snave Cottage!"

    We should have been on a 2 week cruise around the Med, but that was obviously cancelled due to COVID-19. We certainly didn't feel like we'd missed out when we arrived at this beautiful location. The cottage is stunning and very comfortable, the owner clearly has an eye for design! We most definitely want to return as I can't imagine ever staying somewhere with views to rival these! We had such a fabulous week, I hope all future guests enjoy their time there there much as we did!
