The majority of rooms contain bunk beds, whilst there is a TV lounge with comfortable sofas, local sightseeing guides. Wi-Fi access is available in public areas of the property, and guests have use of laundry and drying facilities at the YHA hostel.

I was driving full of apprehension. The object surprised me pleasantly. Everywhere clean and tidy. The kitchen is perfectly equipped. Beautiful, green surroundings. I will definitely use the YHA again.

Some bedrooms have views across both the lake and the Langdale Pikes. This hostel offers private rooms with en-suite or allocated shared bathrooms..

Ambleside village is a 10-minute walk from the YHA hostel. It has a selection of quaint tea rooms, artisan shops and country pubs.

I booked the quadruple room with ensuite bathroom. The view was facing the lake. Parking is just infront of the hostel (maybe due to low season I managed to park there). But if you need to park at the paid parking, it's still very near. Fish n chips shop just a few steps away from the hostel. There's a good restaurant/ cafe inside the hostel aswell. & you can take the cruise package just infront of the hostel. Overall, it was an awesome stay!

All guest rooms at the hostel come with a seating area, a flat-screen TV with satellite channels, a kitchen, a dining area, a safety deposit box and a shared bathroom with a shower and a hairdryer. At Lakes Boutique Hostel Apartment Windermere the rooms are equipped with bed linen and towels.

The apartment was fantastic for everything we needed - location was brilliant right in the centre of Windermere, quirky and spacious communal area and everywhere was clean and tidy. Beds were so comfy too. The host was also very helpful, friendly and responsive - we will definitely stay again thank you Lakes Boutique!

Set in a grand Victorian mansion, YHA Langdale is a National Trust property with leafy grounds, cosy log fires and a restaurant. The Lake District hostel is situated between Elterwater and Grasmere.

The bright and airy rooms feature modern bunk beds, and some have a private bathroom. The YHA also features a TV lounge and games room, and the balcony terrace has scenic views of Windermere.

Much open space nearby, with plenty of pathways and magnificent nature. Seems to be a bit isolated (a hint if that's you are searching for).

The Beatrix Potter Gallery is located in nearby Hawkshead, and Lake Windermere is only a 10-minute drive from YHA Hawkshead. The lush greenery of Grizedale Forest is just outside the hostel, home to excellent mountain biking trails and a Go Ape! treetop adventure course.

The staff were helpful and friendly

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    Absolutely beautiful quaint little cottage in a great location. Everything I needed and especially clean. Folders provided lots of information on local walks and routes further afield. Bed was huge and so comfortable. Would highly recommend.

    Hostel is in a great location. Only about 6mins from Lake Windermere. Facilities generally very good and kept very clean. Decent communal area and outside seating with a good view. Very helpful staff.
