Our Valais Blacknose Swiss Sheep

Our sheep are wonderfully friendly—always eager to meet new people and soak up some attention. With their playful nature and endearing personalities, they make the perfect company for your Tea with Ewe experience. Expect plenty of curious sniffs, gentle nudges, and maybe even a little sheepish mischief to make your visit truly unforgettable.

Our location

Tucked away in the heart of the North Yorkshire countryside, near the stunning Yorkshire Dales, you’ll find High Snape Farm—a family-run haven of peace and charm. It’s an easy escape from Leeds, Bradford, and York, and if you’re in Harrogate, it’s practically on your doorstep. As you arrive, you’ll feel the fresh country air and the gentle shift to a slower, more tranquil pace of life.
