All was as described and there were extras I noticed such as hairdryer and fan which we didn't use but would be helpful. The cottage was clean and comfy with little extras of tea, coffee, sugar, milk, cake and prosecco.Everything we needed was provided, linen, washing machine and dishwasher plus a great selection of games and info(can I suggest some of the brochures and timetables are updated). WiFi great and helped with planning our trips. The village has 2 pubs, but not always offering food at this time of year. The village shop was useful as was the train station. Trains run regularly to Skipton. A well positioned cottage with a little bit of luxury, what more do you need? Well, we couldn't control the weather but we walked all the same and having the sauna to return to was a bonus. Snug by name and snuggly by nature, thank you.

The hosts left a generous welcome pack and lovely flowers, which was much appreciated. The Snug is in the very pleasant and friendly village Cononley, which has two good pubs and a well stocked shop, in addition to good transport links. I highly recommend The Snug and would love to stay again when visiting this part of Yorkshire.
