We had a brilliant time staying at the Snug, 2 adults and 2 young children. The Snug was very clean and comfortable, with all equipment you would require. The welcome pack was very thoughtful and helpful as was the information folder. The garden was secure and private. The location was fantastic with numerous tourist locations nearby. We were able to explore York, Scarborough, Flamingoland, Eden Camp, Dalby Forrest, Castle Howard and also visit many of the villages nearby. Lots to do with children. Cinema in Malton and good swimming nearby including one outdoors in Hemsley. We would definitely recommend.
