The owner was very kind and helpful, and the camping barn had everything I could have asked for (and more!): a hot shower (coin operated, 1 pound gets you 50' of hot water), maps of the area, comfortable beds, a fireplace and some wood already prepared, fully equipped kitchen, and even hot water bottles!

Best hostel I've ever stayed in. Really modern and clean. Bargain for the price
Great location, away from hustle and bustle of central Lake District and short walking distance from the beach. Spacious and well equipped clean house. Extremely safe, small village location.
Great location just below the approach to Blencathra on the A66, cheap bunkhouse rooms so great for a quick stop over or if you’re caught short in the weather looking for a place to stay.
Fantastic location and just how a Youth Hostel should be. The staff were amazing, friendly and very helpful. I had the continental breakfast which well worth the money. Couple of good beers sat outside reading a book was just the ticket.
Very welcoming host , with loads of helpful information. We were 2 couples travelling on motorbikes and on street parking was safe and secure. Shared bathroom excellent for 2 couples together. Breakfast was great Bed was very comfortable, with a great location
Great location and great hostel. Staff were friendly and helpful and the lounge room has a great view!
Beautiful grounds, amazing views, great location. Cost of the apartment was cheap and suitable for our budget. Bedrooms were a decent size with comfortable big bed and bedding.
Great location, friendly staff, nice and warm during a very cold spell. Lovely bar/cafe. It's a youth hostel, so hardly luxurious accommodation, but it was clean and comfortable and exceeded my expectations. I loved the sound of the river flowing by.
Great location. I was able to park easily , a big bonus in the Lake District. The Hostel location was perfect to be able to start walking from. Solo traveller and felt very safe here, friendly and helpful staff . Great kitchen and shower facilities. nice and clean .
