2 Snape Hill

We had a lovely week at Snape Cottage and found it to be an excellent base for exploring both Sheffield and the Peak District.

One of the biggest advantages is the easy access to Dronfield railway station, making day trips into Sheffield incredibly straightforward. We enjoyed exploring the city, shopping, visiting museums and eating at Cambridge Street Collective. The surrounding area is fantastic. We loved walks and drives through the Peak District, with Bakewell and the Ladybower/Derwent Water area being particular highlights. Hardwick Hall is also well worth a visit if you’re interested in history and beautiful grounds. For food and drink locally, we’d highly recommend The Blue Stoops, which became a favourite during our stay, while The Manor House is a lovely spot for a relaxed drink. Overall, if you’re looking for a well-located base to explore South Yorkshire and the Peak District, Snape Cottage is a great choice. We packed a huge amount into our week and came away feeling we’d only scratched the surface of everything the area has to offer.

Our third visit to 2 Snape Hill.

It suits us. Spacious, well equipped, attentive hosts.

A lovely property, well furnished & equipped for a short or long stay.

It is close to all amenities you could need, shops, pubs, restaurants/ takeaways trains & buses. A short drive from the beautiful peak district. This was our second stay in this property, & when visiting family we will always try to get 2 Snape Hill.

The cottage is beautiful.

The photos don't do it justice. It is really quite large and the main bed is huge and super comfy! The log burner was a real delight for our winter visit. Aldi is a walkable distance away. Dronfield is a nice town and a good location foe visiting the area. The cottage was super cosy and pretty. We felt very at home. Kitchen was pretty well equipt. Just needed to get washing up liquid and some extra toilet roll. Plenty of clean towels. It was clean and comfortable. The owners were very friendly and communicative. Thanks very much, we would love to come back in summer.

The property was clean and well presented, we found it to be well equipped.

There was a lovely garden which in summer time would be lovely to sit in. We enjoyed our stay at the cottage.

Great cottage well equipped.

The only problem is parking near the property. We needed to park a few minutes walk away. That said it wasn't a high problem.

The cottage is lovely and cosy, was ideal for us as a location for visiting friends!

Had good kitchen facilities and nice size living and dining and bedrooms. some of the furnishings and facilities are a little dated or worn (dining chairs, sofa, pillows, duvets or bathroom facilities for example!) and the touches like hand soap provided would be lovely if these weren't empty and dirty! The bathroom facilities could also do with a deep clean, but overall for a nice place.

A very nice place to stay for a family weekend away as we were attending a wedding

Lovely cottage clean and well stocked with everything you need for your stay.

A good base to explore the wonderful Derbyshire countryside. Would definitely recommend 2 Snape Hill Cottage

This was the perfect place for us.

Clean, great facilities, and great location. We will definitely be back.

Lovely cottage in a small town.

Cottage well equipped and everything works! Front and back garden have chairs to sit outside.. you can chase the sun or the shade.

Lovely place, everything very good until we had an issue on the last evening.

Gas issue of which hasn’t been resolved to our satisfaction and we’re still awaiting owners response to Sykes. Was happy to leave a very good review upon resolution of our issue but after over a week no response has been received. No gas or hot water on our last evening and last morning. Ruined the end to our weekend away. Unable to cook breakfast or shower before we left. A small amount of refund/compensation we feel is not out of order to request. Working in customer service, a complaint can be dealt with speedily to provide a good outcome for all. However to ignore, does not help anyone.

The cottage is a very good size - plenty of room for four of us.

It was also very light for an old cottage (which are often dark!). The beds were comfortable, the kitchen was well equipped, the heating and hot water were good. The back and front gardens were lovely and we spent time in both. There was always a parking space close (although is a little tricky to pull out onto the road). The TV in the living room sometimes dropped the internet connection when we were using streaming services. We were a little confused about the tv in the master bedroom (not a tv, but a monitor instead). We would visit again and would happily recommend staying in this property.

We had a great week, the property was exactly as described & perfect for our holiday plans.

Communications from the owners were very good, & they were happy to help with our questions pre visit. We would definitely look to stay here again.

Lovely cottage, beautiful garden.

Really pretty shame we weren’t staying longer. Huge, lots of space. Couple of bits, with a 10 am check-out it was a bit of a rush striping beds and sorting recycling. Most places have a noon check out, 11 earliest. There was no wood for the burner. Though we had hoped not to want a fire in June! Shame we needed it!! A cafetière or coffee machine and pods in the kitchen would be good, so we could make a good coffee when we arrived, maybe a pint of milk. Nowhere has welcome packs anymore. After a 5 and a half hour drive we had to go straight back out for milk and tea/coffee. Otherwise amazing kitchen. Overall fantastic.

The cottage is lovely,, bigger inside than it looks, everything you could need is on sire & it's within easy reach of the local amenities & some lovely places to visit.

Excellent stay.

The property was very clean (important to us) and met our needs perfectly. The only minor piece of feedback is that pillows in the larger bedroom were quite lumpy / uncomfortable. That aside the cleanliness, layout, items supplied, location and communication from the owners was superb and I have recommended the place to friends already.

Loved this cottage.

Comfortable, well equipped gardens front and back are lovely. Well placed for days out either by car or train 6min walk to train station. Anne-Marie and Craig friendly and helpful. Folder was useful we went to 3 of the places they recommended. Will definitely stay again.

Very lovely cottage space for everyone very clean and we would recommend it thank you we had a great time

A lovely cottage,great location for exploring.

Nice layout, warm and comfortable. Good information on the cottage and local areas of interest. Thank you

A very comfortable spacious cottage in an ideal situation for local shops , pubs and restaurants.

We were fortunate to have warm sunny weather and enjoyed relaxing in the front garden which was a sun trap.A few minutes drive takes you into the Peak District where there are numerous wonderful walks . beautiful interesting villages and many other attractions suitable for children and adults.I can recommend this property for anyone who wants to holiday in the area.

Everything was perfect Just one small winge when we arrived there was no loo roll so first job was to go to supermarket Not complaining as Everything was lovely thank you x

We have always enjoyed staying here and the relaxed but attentive approach of the owners.

The property is now even better with the addition of a shower over the bath in the main bathroom in addition to the shower in the en suite to the second, making it much easier if you have 4 or 6 people staying. Newly repainted, its relaxed but comfortable feeling has been refreshed.

A very enjoyable stay.

The location was excellent and the property met all our requirements.

Great place to stay with easy access to the Peak District.

Had good communication with the owners and would recommend a stay here.

We had a lovely week here.

A comfortable, homely place with .plenty of space and lovely gardens too when the weather is nice enough to dit out! The owners are friendly and helpful and quick to respond and we would highly recommend the house. Also it's in a perfect spot to visit all that the beautiful Peak District and Derbyshire dales has to offer. Our first stay in Derbyshire and we thoroughly enjoyed it! Thankyou Annmarie and Craig for a lovely stay xx

Great location for days out.

Can recommend Travellers Rest for good food. Great space downstairs which allowed kids room to play and adults to relax. Property in need of some general maintenance. Two broken seats in front garden. Dangerous broken decking in back garden. Some upstairs furniture needed attached to walls. Out of date food in kitchen cupboards. Bedding appears to be very old and worn.

Perfect location for me, staying in a home from home property.

On this occasion I was travelling by myself visiting family and friends. I felt perfectly secure and happy as the owners were on hand if I needed further advice or help with anything. Would definitely revisit and recommend this charming property. Thankyou again!

A very convenient cottage near a train station and the Peak District.

Very comfortable, warm and homely only 20 minutes from some walks in the Peak District. We used it as a base for visiting family in Sheffield, so it was perfect for us to be near the station.

Lovely cottage in lovely area.

Shame we couldn't park by the cottage. The locals park with large gaps between cars, were we were told to park, its as if they don't like people coming and going. We had to park, 4/5 minutes walk away. But we still enjoyed it.

The property was well refurbished , with most things brand new.

Lovely garden and good location , close to village amenities and train station. Only thing I would consider (in time) is installing another shower in the main bathroom

A lovely spacious property with all facilities needed .

As a party of five this lovely home was very spacious and had all your home comforts.

It is situated where you can drive to many attractions. We really enjoyed our stay and would certainly come back again.

Very homely!

Was in an ideal location for us to explore. Would definitely return ☺️

Great Cottage.

This is a great cottage which feels like home and has a really relaxing quality.

Also very relaxed and helpful hosts made the stay easy. Good layout, lots of space and very convenient location. Parking was never an issue for us on the private lane. Well equipped - range cooker, lots of garden furniture and things for children and a good sized smart TV in the living room As with other reviewers the bathroom situation is a little strange but if you are a couple it s no problem and the owner is going to fit a shower to the main bathroom before bookings re-open which will really make it perfect.

This is a great cottage feels more like a home than a holiday let is very well equipped

Very nice and comfortable cottage.

All the comforts we needed and owner always communicates quickly. Lovely stay and well recommended.

Absolutely beautiful cottage.

Clean, very comfortable and spacious . Beautiful garden. Great location close to all amenities. Very close to the train station that is good for people who don't drive which was ideal for us. We and a great stay and will definitely be booking again to stay there soon. Thank you Craig and Ann marie.

The location was fantastic.

The cottage was so homely and the size of the space was amazing with two babies.

After being told 10 days prior to our stay that there wasn’t a shower in the bathroom, which had a big impact to 4 adults getting ready in the mornings, then 48hours prior to our stay being told that there wasn’t a cot, high chair or stair gate, this caused a lot of stress.

My daughter-in-law left a message to say what time they were arriving as stated, 3 hours prior to arrival, they assumed someone would be at the cottage to sort entry, when my son & family arrived there wasn’t any information about the key code, between my daughter-in-law & myself we left several message with Craig, we couldn’t contact Ann Marie as her mobile number is not printed correctly. My son & daughter-in-law we’re getting very stressed not able to enter the cottage, especially having an 11 month old. Eventually Craig contacted my daughter-in-law after a neighbour said he would email him, Craig claimed he had sent the key code to myself & my daughter-in-law previously but neither of us received it until he sent it again. My husband & I had planned to arrive after work about 6.30, this also was stressful as we we’re having to bring the travel cot, high chair & stair gate with us as my son didn’t have room in his car which meant my grandson was more than ready for his bed when we arrived. The last ten days before and including the day we arrived was very stressful, not a good start to a well deserved holiday
