Had a really excellent stay here recently - very clean and well-maintained hostel, very friendly and helpful staff who went out of their way for us, and great food provided! A great place to stay in a lovely location.

Situated in the lovely village of Elterwater, this independent hostel is a great place to stay whilst exploring Great Langdale. The staff are experts at all the local activities and can advise you on the many excellent adventures to be had in the area. Good value meals can be ordered including a delicious home made apple crumble! I've visited this hostel many times and it's been consistently good.

As soon as we checked-in, we were asked to make our own bed. The rooms that we got had 6 beds. Each bed had 2 USB ports and a personal reading light, which are really helpful. The rooms were very clean. The loos and the shower were shared amongst all the people(separate for males and females), and they were clean too. You can rent a towel if you want.

There's a kitchen where you get all the utensils and you can cook for yourself. There's a common room where you can sit and read, or probably play some board games. There's a shared dining area too. They provide free Wi-Fi, and it's pretty good.
