Overview
Property code: OC-DS161

This traditional stone-built cottage is located in the heart of the popular market town of Hawes in Wensleydale, close to the waterfall and church with its beautiful stained-glass windows. Chapel House is full of character and charm, the cottage provides an ideal holiday home for a small group or family looking to get away from it all and enjoy the many delights of this thriving old Dales town. This well-equipped property benefits from beamed ceilings and a wood burning stove in the upstairs lounge, the views from the front windows overlook the famous Hawes bridge over the waterfall. The owners have put a lot of thought and detail into Chapel House and this shows in the Chapel dining chairs, soft furnishings, comfortable bedrooms and the attention to detail in each room. There is also a sunny patio area with a bench to the front of the cottage. For those of you who like to visit the many traditional Dales pubs in this town the first one is only 160 steps away! Why not spend a day visiting the local attractions such as the famous Wensleydale Creamery where you can taste all the local cheeses that are made on the premises.

A great holiday home in an excellent location. The cottage was extremely comfortable and had everything we needed for a week long stay. The beds were very comfortable and we appreciated plenty of wonderful soft, white towels. We loved being right in the centre of Hawes and it was great to have a parking space.
