Great site in a lovely location

We stayed here as part of a Dales tour for walking. Finding the site easy easy and it's well signposted off the main road through the town The welcome was really good with the site manager out on the entrance road checking us all in and helpfully advising us which pitches were free. Once parked up its back up to the office to pay and get the local information. The site is well laid-out, on two arms either side of the access road with the services roughly in the middle. For the dog owners a huge meadow is on the right-hand arm for exercising. Services in the washrooms were modern, plentiful and very clean. The only slightly annoying thing was the keys to get into the washrooms, which I forgot a few times. Not sure why these are needed given the site is on the edge of Hawes. There is a bit of farm noise from next door but it's a working farm and you get used to it quickly! The centre of Hawes is barely 5 minutes away with plenty of cafes and pubs. As its a walking holiday for us we left the van parked up and spent most of our time walking out across several days, the attraction is that you are straight out onto the fells. Hawes is set along a narrow flat valley with fells either side and to the west so the was plenty of good walking. only a mile or so away was Hardraw Falls which is well worth a visit. We did have a main meal out a few times at the some great places the White Hart and the Wensleydale Creamery restaurant were great. Sitting at the van in the late afternoons with a cup of tea and a spot of wine was super as the site was so quiet but full of wildlife, especially the song thrushes. While the site was generally full it did not feel crowded at all. There is so much to see and do on the doorstep of the site. We'll be back.
