While some mention traffic noise, the overall sentiment is overwhelmingly positive, with many expressing a desire to return.

Location
The location is highly praised for its convenience to Hawes' town centre, pubs, cafes, and shops, with easy access to walks. Some guests noted traffic noise due to the central location, but this was not a major concern for most.

Facilities
The cottage is celebrated for being well-equipped and offering good facilities, including a kitchen and a washing machine. There is a single mention of a minor maintenance issue with a toilet roll holder, but this does not significantly impact the overall positive feedback.
Thoughtfulness
Guests appreciate the thoughtful touches like a welcome pack and Christmas decorations. While these are well-received, it is politely noted that such gifts, while delightful, are not guaranteed for every stay.
