The location is wonderul! Beautiful views, and very peaceful. If you don't have a car its a long walk up the hill from Windermere. I had everything I needed for a relaxied stay. Obviously this is a hostel so you can't account for other noisy guests, however there is a policy to meep the noise down between 11pm and 7am. Breakfast looked good although I brought my own. The guest kitchen is quite small but is well equipped. Evening meals looked nice, but again I'd brought my own. There are three small car parks and all were pretty much full, but guests still managed to park. The camp site is in a lovely field not far from the main building. I stayed in a shared female dorm.
Me and my daughter stayed overnight bed comfortable the only thing bedroom bit small . breakfast nice staff friendly beautiful views definitely go back again
Very clean
We booked a 5 bed room for my friends and I over the easter weekend. And while the property at the time was super busy, we had a wonderful stay. Comfy beds, good rooms, the bathrooms were exceptionally clean. My friend visiting from the US was shocked at how high the standards were of the hostels in the UK. Overall, would definitely recommend.
The only thing I'd highlight is that you need to have a car to access the property easily. Google says its a 40min walk from Windermere station but the roads are quite uphill and we ended up using the local taxis instead.
Super friendly staff, the girl on reception gave great advice. Had a bit of a mix up when booking and they very promptly got in contact and upgraded me to a bell tent which was so cool.
Everywhere is really clean and amazing view. Would defo recommend.
VÀldigt fint boende i Lake District. Nackdelen för vÄr vistelse Àr dock rummet intill dÀr en familj pÄ minst 7 hade tryckt in sig i ett 4 bÀddsrum. Barnen skrek och gormade. SlÀngde igen dörren. Sprang till toaletten utanför oss och slÀngde igen den sÀkert minst 200 gÄnger pÄ en kvÀll/natt. Och det Àr utan överdrift kan jag sÀga. NÀr jag lyfte till personalen om det hÀr knackade de pÄ men gjorde inget större av saken. PÄgrund av det hÀr blev det vÀldigt, vÀldigt lite sömn under den natten. Dagen efter bad jag om en kaffe som plÄster pÄ sÄren för problematiken och det ville de verkligen inte bjuda pÄ. TrÄkigt.
Men utöver den hÀr incidenten Àr det svÄrt att inte gilla det hÀr boendet. Mysigt lÀge. Fin natur och absolut humana priser.
