The Snug

Walk through the door of The Snug and you're in a ground-floor living and dining space warmed by a woodburner, with a two-seater sofa facing the smart TV and a small table for meals. The kitchen sits alongside—compact but fitted out with electric oven, hob and microwave for proper cooking. Stairs lead up to a first-floor bedroom with a king bed, fitted wardrobe and bedside tables, plus a bathroom with bath, shower and heated towel rail. A patio and small sitting-out area give you somewhere to take the air.

Kirkby Lonsdale occupies a river terrace above the Lune, putting it between the Lake District and Yorkshire Dales National Parks. The town centre—where The Snug sits—is an old quarter with pubs, restaurants, shops and a Thursday market all within walking distance. Lunesdale Bakery is nearby for breakfast. A footpath from town leads down to the river and Devils Bridge. Essentials like electricity, wi-fi, bed linen and towels are provided, plus initial fuel for the woodburner. Parking is on road. The property is non-smoking.
