The lack of parking wasnât an issue, there was plenty of free parking nearby and you could drive up to the cottage to load/unload. Facilities in the cottage were fine, nice bathroom, good shower, kitchen adequate. There are no outside facilities really, there is a bench to sit outside on but one of the residents parks their car in front of it, so we sat on the wall by the beck. Overall, a comfy cottage.

The cottage is immaculate, and kitted out very nicely. It was cosy, warm, and had brilliant Internet connections, too. We never needed to speak to Olivia, the owner, as everything was perfect whilst we were there. Hawes is a beautiful village, set in some of the most beautiful countryside. Parking in Hawes is very good, so you won't need to worry about parking your own car nearby. There is a space, but it's quite rightly reserved for local residents. We had a terrific saty, in a clean, comfortable place, and found everything we needed nearby. We'll be returning.

A little small as we took our dog but we only used this to sleep in and have breakfast as we walked everyday with our dog. Only criticism is no parking. There where 3 vehicles parked in the courtyard which never moved whilst we were there.
