Quirky Cottage in The Heart Of The Yorkshire Dales. Great reviews. Book early.

Good cleanliness reviews.

Superbly positioned on the edge of the bustling market town of Hawes in Upper Wensleydale. This quirky cottage spans three floors offering compact yet cosy holiday accommodation. An abundance of features including Yorkshire Flagstone floors, exposed beams and decorative cast iron range have been retained in order to enhance the character of this delightful cottage. There is free, robust and unlimited wi-fi should you wish to remain connected during your holiday.
Scores well on value for money and cleanliness time and again.
Please note from April 2026, we have a nesting bird in the roof above the master bedroom. We are unable to move the nest by law until the fledglings have flown.

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

Cattle market cottage

Comfortable cottage though could do with an upgrade in kitchen , a little shabby , ideal location with plenty walks on the door step . We enjoyed our stay . Scenery stunning , plenty of places to eat out . Great cottage for walkers , maybe not family with kids due to stairs!

A lovely cottage in the heart of Hawes. Easy access to attractions in Hawes, and fabulous walking in the area. Cottage is on 3 levels so there are some stairs, can be busy outside with bikers at weekends. Good access to shops, pubs and chip shop! We would definitely visit again.

Nice little Cottage, well equipped for our needs during our weekend stay. The washing machine came in handy! Great location, Hawes is a lovely little market town. In my view, I feel that the cottage could benefit from a lick of paint here and there, and a deep clean in areas, especially skirting boards and tops of picture frames where fluff and dust gather. We really did enjoy our stay in this beautiful part of the country ❤️

Amazing property in stunning location.

If you’re searching for a property in the Yorkshire Dales area, don’t look any further. This is, by far, the cheapest and best located property that we found after 3 days of searching. A little bonus is that Hawes is the town where Wallace & Grommit was set. The check in process was convenient, the house was spotlessly clean and the beds were so comfortable. The owner was extremely helpful and friendly. We lost our dog while we were there and the owner did everything she could to help us find it. I would absolutely recommend this property.
