Hawes it great. We stayed here http://www.hudsons.co.uk/mall/productpage.cfm/hudsons/_WTS33292/428993/Pry-House-Farm-Cottages#ad-image-0 a few years ago and had a lovely time. They have 2 barn conversions of different size. 30 minute walk into Hawes and theres a few nice pubs there.

What about http://www.greendragonhardraw.com/contact.html . 2 birds, one stone, and its got this in the back garden.

Skipton,Grassington.

Parents have a caravan at skipton, a place called Long Ashes! Quite nice, just a little quiet for my liking.

The green dragon is a great pub... especially if you like real ale?

Skipton,Grassington.

 :happy2:

Great place, but tad quiet, be better going slightly further up into the dales. Still class skipton as home, so peaceful compared to other BD postcodes  :fighting:

Its quite surprising how far out long ashes site in skipton is and its still a BD post code. Its 33 miles from my house (BD18).
