We were lucky enough to be able to stay here for 17 nights,while doing a twelve month trip around the UK. The experience can only be described as exemplary in all aspects. A spotlessly clean environment,with excellent facilities. Having a drying room,for boots,jackets etc ,has to be appreciated. The capacity for all ranges of walks,even straight off site,will satisfy nearly all hikers. For eating out,in Hawes itself,then you have a plethora of choices.My personal favourite,has to be the Pantry Cafe/Restaurant on the main road.Best,no nonsense meals,at a very reasonable price! May i give a big shout for the wardens,particularly Matt,who helped with a plumbing issue in our motorhome.Thanks. Overall,would definitely return and recommend.
