Drumaldrace is a lovely three bedroomed house which sleeps six in the delightful village of Hawes in the Yorkshire Dales. It has stunning views of the hills beyond and is right in the heart of the Dales in the pretty town of Hawes with its shops, cafes and restaurants and you are in for a treat with the local shopping and Yorkshire crafts.  Venture further afield and you will find plenty to do, walking and cycling is some of the best in the country, the “Tour de Yorkshire” passes through the Dales year after year.  The Forbidden Corner is a fantastical place to take children for a wondrous day out.  Try your hand at the Three Peaks Challenge starting from Horton in Ribblesdale.  Gastro pubs and top-class restaurants are also only a short drive away.  If you enjoy nature, then why not go on the look out for the Red Squirrels which breed in this area.  The Wensleydale Creamery of Wallace and Gromit fame is walkable. Those interested in history will be spoilt too, Castle Bolton with its links to Mary Queen of Scots is close by, there is so much to explore and Drumaldrace is a great base to start from.

Lovely, roomy house in a fabulous location with amazing views from all windows. Comfy bed and pillows. Lots of lovely fluffy towels. Hawes is a wonderful place to stay, with lots of walks and places to visit. Ribblehead Viaduct was amazing. Gayle Mill does a brilliant talk about the history of the mill.

Lovely cottage, well laid out, which is nicely located on the outskirts of Hawes, only a 3-4 min walk to the pub and shops. Everything you need is either in the cottage or located close by. But currently there is no WIFI in the house although the mobile phone signal was good enough for all the web surfing and emails we as a couple needed to do. Read more Hide
