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.
