Brush up on your grammar before booking a stay in this handsome former schoolhouse at the heart of Yorkshire’s Hawes. Complete with opulent décor and antique-style wooden furnishings inside, this marvellous property provides an unforgettable place to stay for any group of six guests. Well-suited to those hoping to embrace hiking, cycling and more thrilling outdoor sports, the property is set deep within the walking territory of Wensleydale and the wider Yorkshire Dales National Park. For those eager to take their trip at a slower pace, however, there are also plenty of easy-going attractions both in Hawes and in surrounding towns and villages.

Fabulous decorative elements including ornate mirrors and plush seating options deck out each and every room of this two-storey house. On the ground floor, discover an ever-inviting lounge with ample comfortable seating, an electric fire and a TV – the cosiest spot for curling up together after your day of adventure. For those who elect to eat in, the ground floor is also equipped with a kitchen and a separate dining room for preparing all your family’s favourites. As the night draws in, venture up to the first floor to find three bedrooms and a family bathroom. Each bedroom is presented with soft linens, far-reaching views and its own TV, a real joy to wake up to as each morning comes.

Although completely rural, Hawes is a bustling little town with shops, eateries and attractions all just a short walk from your doorstep. Find out about the area’s rich local history from the museum or take a trip to the creamery to find out how world-famous Wensleydale cheese is made (both 0.5 miles). This ever-scenic area is awash with wonderful waterfall beauty spots, so plot out a route to admire Hardraw Force (1.5 miles), Cotter Force (2.5 miles) and Aysgarth Falls (9.5 miles) nearby.

Had a lovely stay at The Old Grammar School. Its location brilliant, easy access to all the facility in Hawes. The upside down layout made it super cosy and easy, with the living room, bathroom and bedrooms on the same floor. Property was spotlessly clean and one of the most well equipped kitchens we have had in a holiday cottage.
