Me & my wife traveled to the Dales for a short walking holiday, just 3 nights. We found this B&B on TripAdvisor, and quickly booked due to the many excellent reviews.
We arrived on Friday evening and were given a warm welcome by Karen who showed us around the B&B, room and facilities. Free Parking is available around the back of the B&B, with easily enough room for 5 vehicles.
We stayed in the 'Lady Anne' room, which was lovely. Spacious, with a big comfy bed, HDTV, DVD player and TV Box. Bathroom was a decent size, and the shower was excellent. The views from the north window is spectacular. The room was pretty warm, due to the recent muggy weather, but the air conditioning soon brought the temp down to comfortable levels. Tea & Coffee Facilities were very good, proper 'Yorkshire' tea bags, and Karen fetched us 'real' milk, instead of the usual plastic things you usually get in B&B's.
The breakfast is superb, a proper 'walkers' breakfast. You could manage all day on it, but we did get a packed lunch on the Saturday as we knew we'd be out until quite late and had a 14 mile walk planned. The sandwiches were lovely. Just enough to keep you going until Dinner. We ate them at the top of Wild Boar Fell looking out across the beautiful valley.
All in all a very pleasant place to stay, and an excellent base for walking in a quieter part of the dales.
Location wise, its a little out of the way, which we prefer, but there is a pub next door, 'The Moorcock Inn', which does excellent Food, big portions, and very reasonably priced, however, its not a huge place and gets booked up quickly Friday & Saturday evenings, so its worth booking a table in advance or you may be disappointed. Just use Google and you'll soon find their website.
The B&B does have a evening menu, but you need to let them have orders well in advance, ideally the day before or at breakfast so they can get the fresh ingredients. We didn't use this service but I've no doubt the meals would be at the same excellent standard as breakfast.
Hawes is an easy drive of around 5 miles, and you can park for free after 6pm in the main car park. There's an excellent Chippy, open till 9 most evenings, plus a few restaurants, pubs & cafes.
We had a wonderful weekend, and will hopefully be back soon.
