The Old Surgery

Hawes, North Yorkshire

Fulford House, located in the picturesque town of Hawes in North Yorkshire, offers a warm and inviting accommodation option for up to four guests. This charming Georgian house, originally built in 1832, served as a doctor's residence and surgery until 1993. The property has been thoughtfully modernized while retaining its historical significance, making it an excellent choice for families, couples, or friends seeking a comfortable getaway in the heart of Wensleydale.

The interior of The Old Surgery features a stunning open-plan living area, complete with an engineered wood floor and underfloor heating, creating a cozy atmosphere. Guests can relax by the high-quality electric effect stove or enjoy their favorite shows on the Smart TV. The contemporary kitchen, equipped with modern appliances and sleek white cabinetry, enhances the overall elegance of the space. The two luxuriously fitted bedrooms include a super king-size double (which can be converted into a twin upon request) and a king-size double, both with en-suite shower rooms and flat-screen TVs, ensuring a comfortable stay.

Outside the property, visitors can explore the natural beauty of the area, including Galye Beck waterfall, which flows through Hawes and is accessible via an old narrow bridge. The town is home to two additional waterfalls, Aysgill Force and Gayle, providing opportunities for scenic visits. Guests can also enjoy the local amenities, such as shops, pubs, tearooms, and the famous Wensleydale Creamery, known for its association with the Wallace and Gromit films. The breathtaking Upper Wensleydale landscape is perfect for outdoor activities like walking, cycling, bird-watching, and fly-fishing.

For those looking for more adventurous pursuits, the renowned Three Peaks challenge is just a short drive away, and the nearby Gayle Mill, a beautifully restored 19th-century sawmill featured on Channel 4’s How Britain Worked, offers an intriguing visit. With its contemporary styling and subtle nods to its historical roots, Fulford House serves as a delightful base for exploring the Yorkshire Dales at any time of year.
