Gayle
6 of us travelled from Scotland to Gayle and we all had a fantastic time during our time in Yorkshire. I thought that the cottage might be a little far away from the main street in Hawes but it wasn't a problem. The only thing that we couldn't find was an iron. We found the board but not the iron. That's all

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.

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!

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.

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!

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.

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 property
This property is lovely. Has everything you need for a relaxing holiday. It's located across from a beautiful waterfall. The weather was great so we could sit on the benches at the front whilst the kids played in the water. And it's only a short walk from Hawes. The owner responded to any queries I had straight away and check in was really easy. Would definitely recommend.
