Hostelz.com Guest Reviews
Great location for hiking I stayed at this hostel for four days on the 14th to 18th of October 2009. It was clean, comfortable. I originally was going to stay only 2 days. But all of the other hostels in the Lake District were full. It did not really matter because not only is there endless places to hike within walking distance of the hostel, there is also a bus to Keswick as well. I walked several hours a day for four days and still did not get to see all that i wanted to see. The views are fantastic. But as the walking paths can get stony and marshy, you should bring hiking boots. This hostel does not seem to get as full as others in the Lake District.I do not know why because it is very nice and has just as many beautiful hills to walk up as the other parts of the Lake District. It is also just a few hundred feet from a bus stop that comes from Windemere train station.But is off the main road so it is very quiet at night [the stars are wonderful on a clear night]. This may seem silly, but i also loved the fact that the guy at reception listened to brass band music while he worked. It was a welcome change from all of the bad pop music that you usually hear at hostel reception area. Overall nice staff, great location, and a very nice hostel. — PETE FROM BALTIMORE , USA (2009-10-28)
