Ground Stones has been recently converted from a traditional long barn into luxury self catering cottages. Accommodating eight people, the cottage is bursting with character - exposed beams, log burning stove (starter pack of logs provided!), internal exposed stone walls and views to die for! Ground Stones has an adjoining cottage (Roof Stones 218013) that sleeps six - perfect for larger families, offering privacy with en suite facilities to the master rooms. They can be booked together to accommodate 14 guests. Each cottage overlooks a private rock garden with the facility of a fully enclosed south facing garden, complete with fruit trees, barbecue and a charming arbour bench! There is also a games room with pool table, darts and board games.
Situated in the heart of the Yorkshire Dales National Park, Ground Stones overlooks Wensleydale fells, moors, the River Ure and the unspoilt countryside between. Nestled on the outskirts of the bustling market town of Hawes, only a 6 minute walk, with its county-renowned deli, the famous Wensleydale Creamery, Ropemakers Centre, restaurants, five pubs, tea-rooms, bistro, clothes shops and lovely gift shops. For adventurous guests there are two complementary fishing passes for the River Ure - just a short walk over the adjacent field. And there are local walks a-plenty! (maps provided).

Lovely house, excellent location and setting with lots of outdoor space for the children to enjoy. The cot and the highchair provided were very much appreciated. 
It was very good, comfortable and well equipped and the games room made all the difference as the weather was a bit wet!
Myles, the owner, was extremely helpful and the cottage was beautifully presented.
