Yha Eskdale Hostel

Wonderful location with stunning views of surrounding hills. Convenient drying room, comfortable beds, and good showers. Lounge and public facilities available before/after check-in. Enjoyed the bar, and kitchen had everything needed. Surprisingly affordable for the amenities provided.

the staff were incredibly lovely, helpful, and friendly but not pushy. the efforts to increase biodiversity and attract wildlife were absolutely gorgeous. the kitchen, although sometimes a bit small, was very good. the area surrounding the hotel was packed full of beautiful places to explore. We also loved the local pub, which was incredibly friendly too. the peace and quiet, clean beds, and friendly staff made our stay even more enjoyable. the view of the mountains surrounding the hotel was breathtaking, and we loved waking up to the sound of birds and sheep. Plus, it was only a half an hour drive to Wast Water lake, one of the most beautiful lakes we've ever seen.

Our experience was wonderful and we wish we could have stayed longer. Cons: Absolutely nothing!

Great location, perfect for hikers

Plenty of storage in rooms. Clean and well-maintained facilities. Accommodating and helpful staff. Lovely atmosphere and feel. Spotlessly clean with everything needed. Amazing and quiet location. Upgraded to larger room with comfy beds. Wonderful outdoor space with views

For us, it was ideal.

I spent a peaceful Easter weekend in the middle of nowhere, and it was exactly what I needed to escape the city. the views were incredible, surrounded by endless greenery. Plus, there were plenty of hiking trails to explore. the staff was friendly and welcoming, making me feel at home. I appreciated the fully equipped kitchen that allowed me to prepare my own meals.

The internet connection was non-existent, which made it difficult to communicate with my family and to plan my days. the shared room was quite small and not very comfortable.

Noisy neighbors early in the morning.

I enjoyed staying in this hotel as it was located in a really quiet area near Scafell mountain. The staff were friendly and helpful throughout my stay. The hotel facilities were great and there was an excellent pub nearby with great food and drinks. The cleanliness of the hotel was also really good.

No drawbacks.

Nestled in a remote, picturesque valley, this hostel offers a calm and serene atmosphere perfect for a relaxing getaway. the surrounding Lake District offers ample opportunity for outdoor activities. the spotlessly clean rooms are spacious and comfortable. the helpful staff and beautiful outdoor seating area are added bonuses.

The common areas of the hostel lacked character and did not foster a communal atmosphere, making it less ideal for those hoping to socialize.

Nothing to mention.
