Established in 2006 The Mulberry Bush Hawes has provided a good old fashioned Yorkshire welcome to locals and visitors alike, offering an eclectic mix of home and gift wear, Emma Bridgewater pottery, British sheepskins a specialty, British knitwear and high quality leather goods and jewelry, all a little bit special.
Well all I can say is massive thanks to Helene for her amazing advise on our purchase of the sheepskin rugs. They fit perfectly on our rattan furniture.

Quite unusual to review an antique shop, its a shop really and not a tourist attraction! This is an excellent old school antique shop always well stocked with oak and country furniture at affordable prices. A genuine and friendly owner makes this as good a reason as any to visit Hawes. 19th and 18th century country furniture, slip ware, collectables and decorative objects.

Artist Stacey Moore opened her first gallery in 2016, in her hometown of Hawes, North Yorkshire. The small gallery showcases Stacey’s impressive animal coloured pencil drawings, influence by the Yorkshire Dales. The gallery is a unique and welcoming place, which you can often watch Stacey drawing on site. There is a large range of limited edition prints, one off originals, stationery and gifts.
Such a talented artist and her work is so strikingly sharp that you can almost imagine stroking the fur of many delightful animals. Coloured pencils taken to a whole new level.

I'm Elizabeth & I love to cook - and even more show others the joy that comes from making great food! My speciality is modern & traditional farmhouse style food using quality ingredients (local where possible) - I want you to take something out of the oven and go "wow"! I offer a range of courses from full day to a couple of hours in small groups of up to 6. So come and have fun with friends or come on your own and make new ones!
Such a great day. Spent a wonderful afternoon with Elizabeth on her brilliantly baking course and what brilliant bakes we did. Tried everything from cakes to scones to traybakes and more. For someone who is not a master baker but just likes to have a go now and then this course was perfect. Got some really handy recipes and tips and baked some absolute yummy treats too. Would recommend this for anybody of any skill set as it it such a fun and helpful course. Would definitely look at other courses Elizabeth and the Humble Pie Cookery Kitchen do. Thanks again Elizabeth. Had such a great time x

Dales Countryside Museum shares the stories of the people and places of the Yorkshire Dales. It's a great place to start your visit to the Dales and can help you to understand and enjoy the various things you see as you travel through the area. You can find out what it was like to be a lead miner, discover the importance of the knitting industry, find out about the crafts and trades that would once have been a feature of every village. Climb aboard the train carriages and get crafty in our Creation Station. See beautifully crafted objects like our exquisite Bronze spearhead and gold Viking ring. Enjoy the temporary exhibitions that change throughout the year. We have an annual events programme including Fun Fridays for families, craft workshops for you to have fun and learn a new skill and demo days that bring objects to life. Follow the outdoor trail and do a bit of animal and bug spotting too! Refuel, recharge and relax at the Firebox Café and make the most of your visit to Hawes.
Hawes is a lovely little Dales town and this museum is certainly one of the spots worth seeing. It showcases the history of the Yorkshire Dales. The communities, the industry, villages, schools, churches and more. It is exceedingly family friendly and our four year old (who takes some distracting) was fascinated by many of the displays. Especially the recreation of an old lead mine that was genuinely realistic! The old steam train was very good and the kids 'craft and play' carriage at the end could have kept our little one entertained for ages! Thoroughly recommended.

Contemporary art gallery and coffee in a converted chapel in the heart of Wensleydale. Offering work from local artists as well as workshops and drop in sessions in all kinds of arts and crafts.
What a lovely place. We were able to browse the arts and crafts from local artists then had an excellent coffee while enjoying a chat with the owner. Definitely worth a visit. Lots of lovely crafts which would make great gifts.

Take a trip to Hawes and put the Ropemakers at the top of your places to visit list. You can see all types of rope being made, some history of rope making and how ropes are used for in today's modern world. I don't know what more to add except to say except make sure you visit.

Yet again, another treasure we stumbled across on our travels! Warm welcome, free tastings and reasonably priced hot drinks served in style with a smile. Needless to say we left with some unusual preserves that will be a welcome addition to both the breakfast table and the after dinner cheeseboard!
