Reviews

Very comfortable and well equipped property in an ideal location. Plenty of high and low level walks from the property and easy access to Hawes and the wider Dales.

Mr A,

We had a great time at Thorns. The picture does not do justice to how nice the place is. The location is brilliant with stunning uninterrupted views from every room. The village is a short walk with lovely pubs and cafes. It's a great location for exploring the dales and Lake District. The cottage was very clean and loaded with amenities !!

Mr M,

This was one of the nicest holiday cottages I have ever stayed in. The kitchen was really well equipped, you could have cooked every meal there and always had the correct utensil or equipment to use. The cottage was really cosy and very clean. I would highly recommend staying here.

Mrs S,
