We'll be back
Had a cracking weekend, with an improved dog walk since the last time we visited, which pleased the dog no end.
Hawes, with it's great shops, tea rooms and chippy what else can a man wish for.
As the review title suggests, we'll be back.

Second time and just as good
This was the second time we have been to this site and it was just as good if not better . The site is well kept by the friendly and efficient wardens, the only prob we had was with midges but thats no ones fault. The villiage of Hawes is only 5 minutes walk away and is a bustling place with many pubs shops and eatery's we ate in the Crown and it was very good food and reasonable prices. The Chippie down the main street is one of the best fish and chips I have ever tasted, you can get half chips which is a good idea. we will be back as Arnie says .
Holiday spoilt by constant dog barking
A wonderful location but our holiday is being spoilt by constant dog barking, both day and night. There are simply too many dogs on this CC site.
Great site
Have just returned after another visit to this site.It is situated in a lovely part of the world and the facilities are as always superb.Unfortunately during our stay we were attacked by midges and suffered many bites so beware and take precautions.The village itself many pubs and restaurants offering great food and friendliness.We used the Crown inn which served great food and allows well behaved dogs into the bars area.Unfortunately the weather was not very kind to us,with cold winds and rain so using the Crown Inn with a fire burning was great.Another thing to be aware of is the superb Bakers and Butchers shop where you can buy great bread,pies and locally produced meat. The tea and coffee shop(Labernam house) just off the high street is really nice and also allows well behaved dogs inside .
Another Jewel in Yorkshires crown
What can i say that hasn't been said before? I endorse all the positive reviews. In a nutshell this site is a must, very friendly and informative wardens, perfectly situated in the dales with stunning scenery at every point you care to turn. A visit to the Creamery is worth it to sample all the cheeses on sale, the fish and chip shop in town is one of the best, all pubs we tried were dog friendly, a really bustling little place, you could sit outside a cafe/pub and people watch all day. Only had three nights at Hawes so will come again for longer next time. Bus stops in town to most places of interest. If you are in doubt about coming to Hawes, put your fears behind you and visit this beautiful part of Yorkshire, you won't regret it.
First visit
Back from three days on this site which, despite it being mid week, was almost full. We chose a pitch near the superb dog walking field - the biggest I have come across with mown paths through the buttercup meadow and a handy bench at the top end. The only slight negative to the pitch was it backed into a low stone wall so you had other pitches right behind. Next time I would look at the other pitches as there are two distinct areas divided by the access road. Great walks from the site entrance, the pretty longer route into Hawes is across the main road and by the river and fields to come in at the far end. Or, via the road it's only a 10 minute walk. Lots of touristy shops, cafes etc and a good independent grocer's, as well as a Spa plus a lot of pubs. We ate at the Crown, basic food but good value and it is very, very dog friendly.
Cracking Site
Just returned from 6 wonderful nights at Hawes. Spotless well maintained site. Friendly helpful wardens. Great location for exploring the Dales and lovely walks direct from the site. Few minutes walks into Hawes village, with pubs, Spar etc. Best dog walking area we have seen on any sites. Although relatively new caravaners (2yrs) compared to some people, out of all the CC sites we have visited Hawes comes out tops. Will definately visit again probably many times as not a too longer journey for us from home.
Great Location
This site is perfectly placed for anyone wanting to explore the North Yorkshire Dales. Only 5 minutes walk from the centre of Hawes with all it has to offer with quaint little shops, pubs, cafes and a great chippy. 10 minutes walk will take you to the Wensleydale Cheese factory with its huge range of cheeses for sale. All of the usual Club facilities are here but the toilets are getting a bit "tired" and in need of some TLC. The wardens, though, keep them immaculate. If you are dog owners like us, then you will be pleasantly surprised. This site has the biggest dog walking area we have ever seen, easily the size of 2 football fields on a gently sloping hillside with paths crossing all over and around. Brilliant! Small play area for kids but no set playground area. The pitches are all hardstanding and of an excellent size. Site is split into 3 distinct areas, each slightly different but all the better for that. All in all, an excellent site and one which we'll definitely return to soon.
A great site in a great location
A very clean and pleasant site, with friendly helpful wardens.
The pitches are large for all of the outfit and a booster for the TV thrown in as well. The site WiFi was also good.
Hawes is a loverly village, with enough pubs, fish and chips and shops, with easy access to the wonderful country side, driving or just walking. Like it alot.
