First visit to Hawes for many years. The site is easy to find in a quiet position but within an easy flat walk to the village. The site is very clean with a good choice of pitches. The new facilities block is excellent, with plenty of toilet, wash, and shower cubicles. As well as the huge dog exercise area, the site also has a large play/picnic field behind the reception area that is bounded by stone walls, and in better weather would make a great place for families and children's ball games etc away from peoples pitches. The surrounding countryside is lovely. Hawes is a pretty village with nice pubs and a very good fish & chip shop. We bought some chips and ate them from the paper while walking around the village. Full marks for the chips! As for pubs, we only visited the White Hart. It was warm and friendly with a nice atmosphere, and good beer so we just went back there again. We will definitely go back.
