Had another great stay at this cottage, third time back here so that says something. Quirky but great, stairs may be an issue to elderly or less mobile. Excellent position in the town with parking right outside. Shops, cafes and pubs within 100 yards. Fantastic fish & chip shop just across the road. Local buses to railway station and local town stops within yards of the front door. Wensleydale creamery a 10 minute walk. Countryside is stunning.

The property is in the heart of Hawes, it does have a quirkiness to it, 2 nice bedrooms with comfy beds. Lovely sized bathroom. The kitchen is long and has everything you need for a homely stay. The only down side of the kitchen is cupboard space for storing food. The cottage sleeps 4 but there is enough crockery for a dozen or more taking up to much cupboard space. The cottage is just minutes from pubs which also sell food and welcome dogs, nice shops from outdoor to crafts. There are some lovely walks from the doorstep. Annette the host is lovely, she responds very quickly to all messages. I would recommend the cottage and would definitely come back again

The property was very interesting and was perfectly positioned for travelling in the Yorkshire dales. There were pubs nearby and we found that parking was easy at the end of December. The house was very well equipped and well decorated - it would accommodate 4 people, although the bedroom at the top had a very low ceiling for one of the beds! The kitchen had everything we needed but was quite narrow! Two people would be too many cooks! The only negative we encountered also became a positive! The heating didn't work when we arrived and the house was very cold. We contacted Annette by phone and when it became clear that the problem couldn't be solved immediately, an engineer was called and he arrived just over 2 hours later and put the system right as far as he could. So, a bit of a problem and a solution delivered straight away. We enjoyed our stay there and may well return ...

Great location in the centre of Hawes. Lovely little cottage, comfortable rooms not huge but it is a quirky cottage. Be sure you can handle stairs! Everything you needed for a great stay. Chippie across the road, Cafe's & pubs 5 minute walk. Bus stops outside to train station at Garsdale and Leyburn for onward Bus to Blacksheep brewery. Dog friendly walks all around. Just a great place we had a lovely time.

The cottage is so cute and quirky!Very clean! It is so very central in Hawes; excellent location. Wonderful Chippie across the street; market outside the door on Tuesday, Wensleydale Cheese outlet/giftshop/factory a few steps away. The entire village is within walking distance and a delightful, nostalgic break from the workaday world. That doesnt mean its sleepy; its a vibrant, bustling village!Perhaps a bit more emphasis on the quirkiness of the cottage would be helpful. The stairway system, while extremely charming, could be quite a hindrance to anyone to has even the slightest mobility issue(s). They are winder-style steps and can be tricky. As well, the bathroom is at the top of the first flight, lounge is two steps up from there; master bedroom is another short flight with the 2nd bedroom up another flight. Although we found this rather fun, to get up to the bathroom in the night was a challenge from the top floor. We left the hall light on.The beds werent the most comfortable. Springs poking in the master bed and the twin beds were quite unforgiving. Ok maybe for kids, but quite uncomfortable for adults. Another suggestion would be a larger saucepan or two. We tried to make porridge and the pot was small and very light-weight with the nonstick worn off. Overall, would highly recommend this sweet cottage for holidays!We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Hawes. Million dollar views all around! From the master bedroom in particular!

States parking, doesnt say you have to be lucky to get a spot after constant watching/waiting for one as its a town with shops so lots of locals as well as visitors wanting a spot ! Having to do this put us off going anywhere by car after the first 2 days! Once we got a space it stayed there till end of our trip. Next booking i make will have its own parking space.
