About this property
Fulfill a childhood fantasy with a stay in this heart-warming wing of the imposing Grade I listed Snape Castle in North Yorkshire, which was the former home of Catherine Parr. Retaining plenty of character and warmth, The Undercroft is the perfect base for families or couples looking to discover all that North Yorkshire can offer. The ground floor occupies a cosy open-plan living area graced with a number of welcoming touches, from the exposed beams and stonework to the fabulous woodburning stove and range cooker, giving it a real traditional feel. Downstairs you will also find the simply wonderful master bedroom, boasting a king-size bed with an en-suite that is bursting with class. Head upstairs and be presented with a comforting twin bedroom nestling cosily under the eaves, completing the accommodation in a tremendous fashion. Formal gardens surround the castle, providing a tranquil spot to stroll around to get away from it all, alternatively take a seat on the courtyard garden with a refreshing drink or perhaps treat yourself to an alfresco meal. Snape is a peaceful village tucked in the North Yorkshire countryside, offering a highly-regarded gastropub. Just three miles North sits the market town of Bedale, housing a range of amenities to make the most of. From here you can also visit other attractive spots such as Thirsk and Darlington. Countryside lovers can take a trip to the Yorkshire Dales National Park, where you can enjoy a plethora of walking and cycling opportunities, as well as some quaint little villages to be explored. A unique property in a fabulous rural location.
