Beware! No Facilities
Checking for Late Availability last weekend I found a Standard Pitch with Awning available at Hawes. Great! A Standard Pitch so I booked it for 2 nights.
We arrived there 3 hours later, drove past the building site that used to be the toilet block and thought "we're in trouble here". Lo and behold when the very courteous warden asked if I was aware there were no toilet facilities on the site it was not a complete surprise.
Perhaps when work as significant as this is going on, a "pop-up" should appear on the booking screen warning members.
Clearly the wardens have had and will have people turning up and being disappointed (most probably members who have stayed at Hawes before and don't think they need to look at the site's listing).
That said, the village is still charming, the walks are awesome and the sooner it re-opens fully the better because all the pubs, tearooms and shops say they are really missing the footfall and spend.
