A lovely property, ideally situated for exploring around the area and beyond. An easy little walk into Hawes when you fancy a break from driving or would like a few drinks.Very well equipped kitchen with everything you could need if you are preparing a meal. Comfortable beds and a good amount of room for a family. We even had the sheep run past yesterday morning which was a lovely addition!

Superb accommodation in a beautiful location

We were pleasantly surprised by how good the accommodation in Yarn House is: the property is fully-equipped with top-quality equipment and appliances throughout, and the preparation/cleanliness was excellent. We would definitely recommend this property to others, and hope to stay there again in the future.

Great Location

The location was amazing just what my friend and I needed, perfect for budding artists. The beds were very comfortable and an amazing array of cooking implements which is not always the case. We felt a great deal of thought had been put into making it a home from home stay.

Wonderful cosy spot

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this lovely spot. It was in a great location for exploring the Dales, and was very well-equipped and comfortable. We loved the Christmas decorations! Only downside was no towels provided.

Lovely Autumn Stay

We really loved Yarn House! Three generations came to celebrate my mums birthday and we had the best weekend! Everything you need is there and the house itself is wonderful! The sound of the river was so relaxing and the short walk down into the village was very pleasant. We can’t wait to come back!

3 peaks stopover

A really lovely place to stay. We walked the 3 peaks and needed a cottage close to the route. The house was very comfortable, well stocked and very clear and helpful instructions. Lots of parking just round the corner. Also very close to Hawes with plenty of shops and food options. Perfect for us!

Great review, many thanks, the house took awhile to warm up as a minor repair was needed on the boiler, so heating had been off for a few days. Apologies, would be great to see you again!

Idyllic bolthole in Yorkshire Dales

Well equipped & spacious townhouse style property in small hamlet of Gayle with the bonus of a lovely 10 min walk into the bustling market town of Hawes. Lots to do & see around the area as well as stunning countryside walks for all ages & abilities. Youngest enjoyed nothing more than playing in the beck just outside the front door. Gary & Samantha answered all our questions & gave lots of local info to help our stay, highly reccomend the property & location.

Yarn House, Gayle, Hawes

Good location, cozy, well-equipped. Decent parking nearby. No noise from neighbours. 15 minute stroll to Hawes High Street. Limited space outdoors so no space for children to play outside. Easily accommodated 6 adults and 2 children.

Perfect location for exploring North Yorkshire

We had a fantastic week in Gayle. Parking was easy and only a few yards away from the front door. The house was comfortable and exactly as shown in the pictures. Hawes is literally a 10 minute walk away from downtown Hawes. There are several really delicious places to eat in Hawes. There are plenty of walks right from the house. And more places within a short drive to explore. We highly recommend this house.

Lovely stay

We had a great stay here and really enjoyed the area and the property. My only two things to flag that I would have changed. Were it was only very near our stay that we were informed we would need to bring our own towels. We felt this should have been highlighted before booking. And we were disappointed that there was no milk to start us off as it is quite a rural area and we arrived later in the evening.
