YHA Helvellyn
Greenside, Glenridding, Glenridding, CA11 0QR, United Kingdom – Excellent location - show map
Amazing place - cheap as chips, we stayed in a landed (advertised as a tent on booking.com) great amenities - friendly staff of volunteers and stayovers... food was good quality, the location of the place is absolutely insane - plenty of walks and activities closely and VERY photogenic scenery. Due to the white noise from the river (had rained a lot) we slept for ten hours straight it was so comfortable - and bear in mind we stayed in April outside.
