The Snug was the perfect spot for our 5 days in Kirkby Londale, just a very short walk to the centre of town, but not on a noisy road. It is a lovely semi-detached cottage with exposed beams and wood burner (which we didn't need to use) There was everything we needed, and the beds and seats were all comfortable. We enjoyed the table and chairs in the little yard at the back, for a drink in the sun at the end of the day. We would be more than happy to stay here again.
