Struggled to fit the duvets into the covers and the fitted sheets onto the mattresses! Everything was just a fraction too small!

Clean, welcoming, delightful. Lovely supplies in the kitchen. Comfy beds. Really nice style.

Walk up the hill - way steeper than I expected! Would get a taxi next time.

Brilliant - lovely building, log fire, comfy, clean, and a very friendly hostel manager dog who liked cuddles :-)

Great location, tucked away up the hill a little on a calm street, only a few minutes walk from town. Even though it was fully booked when we stayed it was nice and quiet

Location is up a steep hill. Check the times of the last bus up from the town, as they seem to stop quite early!

Well-designed rooms, with loo, shower and sink within the room (rather than shared facilities). Lovely staff.

Nothing to dislike.

Very pleasant and clean place to stay. The rooms were comfortable and had everything we needed. The kitchen and lounge room were excellent and the staff couldn't have been nicer. Was a friendly place to stay and will definitely stay there again.

It was clean and comfortable throughout.

being opposite the kitchen meant we were kept awake a bit by people being loud after 1am. wasn’t a huge deal as the people were just a bit drunk and didn’t realise how noisy they were.

visually the building is stunning in beautiful surroundings. we loved the whole experience

we were in room one opposite the kitchen. unfortunately we had to get up around 2am to ask people politely could they be a bit quieter as a group were standing in the kitchen with the door wide open being really loud for quite a while when there’s a common room provided for socialising. it wasn’t a big deal they were just drunk and didn’t realise how loud they were I think. just kept us awake a while.

warm welcome from the manager Gill and her lovely dog. was allowed to check in early

The extractor fans weren't working in the entire hostel. Not ideal when you have a loo and shower in your room. Also, the toilet light would randomly switch on and off all the time. Nevertheless, highly recommended! .

Lovely staff, comfortable and spotless facilities.

The heat pump was a bit noisier than we expected.

Generally a very pleasant place to stay. Good location, quite quiet considering it was quite close to town. Lovely views. If the hostel could incorporate some sort of drying room it would make the hostel an ideal place for walkers and ramblers.

The hostel has been completely renewed space both lounge kitchen and the bedrooms I have never enjoyed as much space in the 4 bed dorms and we've been hostelling with family for 30 years but the real jewel was the kitchen lounge combo downstairs .The kitchen was so we provided for in terms of cooking facility pans cutlery cups glasses and plates The lounge is spacious and relaxing topped off with a set of perhaps 8 headphones to allow your party a silent disco .We enjoyed this after a couple in the fox and goose pub which although on heptonstall road (maybe 10 mins walk ) it was top drawer for good beer and craic and a locals crowd friendly hale and hearty as one might hope for over the festive period The staff were warm and friendly and keen to assist .All in all a great break and reasonably priced
