We chose this small Family run hotel on the balance of the reviews on trip advisor. After staying for 3 nights I can only say that the reviews that were less than very good about this hotel and the staff who operate it must have been staying at another establishment of the same name somewhere else in the town! The... more

Having read the previous 2 reviews I'm amazed we are talking about the same place. We stayed in one of the superior rooms, which I would rate as excellent. The king size beds are very comfortable, and the bathrooms lovely. The decor is very neutral (ie not 'twee' as some small hotels can be) so would appeal to both older... more

We have visited Cocketts off and on for over 20 years and seen 3 or 4 different owners. It used to be a terriffic place and now it's terrible. Apart from the unfinised building work, the paint was peeling off woodwork in our bathroom, the spare pillows were screwed up in a pastic bag in the wardrobe and the front... more

We are delighted with the high level of repeat business we receive and I’m sorry on this occasion we did not live up to your expectations. As you mentioned we are indeed in the process of upgrading the property with new customer facilities being developed, however this area is isolated to the rear of the property and customer feedback on...

At £92 for the superior room I expected more. Room small bed too soft. The sauteed chicken liver starter was more like a casserole and the game pie main meal was smothered in Bisto with a pastry lid added as an afterthought. Not really a pie. Breakfast was mediocre with packet sausages. Worth about £50 a night tops. Try the... more

Thank you for your feedback. The room you stayed in measures 180 sq ft, the king size bed, which is a feature of all of our superior rooms, may have created the impression the room is smaller than is actually is. As you will appreciate, the firmness of a bed, is a very subjective matter and in general our brand...

A little disappointed after reading reviews already posted. We stayed in one of the superior rooms which was nicely decorated, apart from the plywood wardrobe doors and cracked sink. The view over the back yard was pleasant but you had to look past the broken flower pots,rusty bench,general tatt and dog poo. The hotel looks tired on the outside and... more

We were vey happy to read that you felt our newly created superior rooms are well decorated and accept there were a couple of elements within the room that needed attention, which have now been addressed. The views from our superior rooms are very pleasant looking directly onto the Yorkshire Dales. Unfortunately during your stay we were in the final...

We stayed at the this hotel for one night and really enjoyed our stay. We had never been to Hawes but it is a really vibrant place, with beautiful hills above the town. This hotel had a lot of character and Bob and Lesley made us feel very welcome. It was very clean and our bathroom was a lovely size.... more

This is the second time we have stayed at this lovely bed and breakfast. The first stay was around three to fours years ago and I'm pleased to stay the quality of the hotel and restaurant was still present. The village itself is lovely, parking can be limited but street parking and the free car park across the road is... more

We booked 3 nights for a birthday celebration. We had booked one of the 4 poster rooms but were allocated the brand new room in the new extension. It was beautifully furnished with a view across the fells. Our daughter said her beamed room in the old part of the hotel was very comfy. The staff were very friendly and... more
