We had a lovely week at the Old Grammar School, couldn't fault the cottage. Very clean and had everything we needed and more. Parking opposite the property was no problem, although we only used our car two days! So many local walks, the Dales museum is worth a visit and Wensleydale Creamery is a must!

Comfortable, cosy and excellently equipped cottage. Friendly host with good communication. Plenty of room to spread out and relax, 5 minutes walk from all the pubs in the village, and views out over the hills. Would definitely stay again

Had a lovely stay at The Old Grammar School. Its location brilliant, easy access to all the facility in Hawes. The upside down layout made it super cosy and easy, with the living room, bathroom and bedrooms on the same floor. Property was spotlessly clean and one of the most well equipped kitchens we have had in a holiday cottage.
