Dales Countryside Museum

Located in the same former train station as the Hawes National Park Information Centre, this local museum traces life in the Dales past and present. A traditional rope-making shop opposite also welcomes visitors.

Wensleydale Creamery

This museum in a working dairy documents how the famed local cheese—so beloved by the popular animated characters Wallace and Gromit—developed over time. You can watch production (best seen between 10 am and 4:30 pm ) from the viewing gallery and then taste (and buy) over 20 varieties of the output in the excellent cheese shop. A restaurant serves plenty of samples—try Wensleydale smoked with ginger or apricots.
