- 8.5Scored 8.5Very goodRated very good· 362 reviewsBest youth hostel I’ve ever stayed in. Loads of space, food was excellent, room was clean and facilities were great. Big group of kids in when we were there, but that’s to be expected! Kids were quiet at night, and staff were very friendly.DylanYoung couple
- 8.5Scored 8.5Very goodRated very good· 362 reviewsThe staff were friendly and helpful, explaining the necessary information for my stay. The meals were very good value for money as well as I was able to get a main meal and dessert for £15-£17 compared to eating in the village. The hostel is a short walk away from Coniston centre which is ideal if you plan to go for a drink with a group to one of the village's pubs. The location also makes it a cheap option for solo hikers doing the Old Man of Coniston or the other hiking trails around the area.EElliottSolo traveller
- 8.5Scored 8.5Very goodRated very good· 362 reviewsIt was my first time staying in a youth hostel and now I don’t think I will ever go back to staying in a hotel. The staff were friendly, the self catering kitchen was excellent, toilets and rooms so clean and the location was amazing. There was also a little games room what my daughter absolutely loved.
