One of the best, but...

This site is excellent, certainly for location and facilities. The drive in is one of the best, certainly from the south. All went well as usual except that during our stay our dog became very ill and needed veterinary care. We found there was a vets in the village - Wensleydale Vets. Ok - just a consulting room in a portacabin on the auction mart site, but our dog got the injections and medication needed to effectively turn her round within 24 hours. I was so pleased to have found these vets that I thought others might want to know, as on the Useful Information-style handout your receive from the wardens on arrival, I think they only mention the vets in Bainbridge. I went up to the office to offer the information to come up against an amazing attitude from the warden who had a very strong opinion against these vets. Apparently they had visited the consulting room in the past but couldn't get the treatment they needed there, and were referred to Leyburn. I understand their frustration, but the vet's website clearly states that the Hawes office is just consulting and more serious cases requiring hospitalisation will be referred on. The warden wasn't interested in including the Wensleydale Vets listing in their handout which I think is wrong - these vets are walking distance and H24 callout once registered. The handout should be just useful local information based on proximity, not individual opinion. I was pretty staggered by the attitude I got. Disappointing blip in an otherwise excellent stay and weekend.
