Traveller reviews

“It was indeed a memorable experience”
08 Aug 2025
I liked the people- staff, citizens and guests, food and the environment

“Pretty good”
08 Aug 2025
Took a one-way cruise from Bowness-on -Windermere to Ambleside, and this hostel was located right in front of where we got off. There’s a restaurant attached to the hostel, and I had a really good fish and chips there. You also get a lovely view of Lake Windermere. Some easy hiking trails are within walking distance. I did a hike to Rydal Cave, and the starting point, Rothay Park, was just a 20-minute walk from the hostel.

“Superb”
