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.
