Even though the location is wonderful, the hostel is vastly over priced. It cost £120 for a double room which was like a very basic cell. We were a party of 4 and were separated onto two different floors. We were subjected to the noise of other guests at all hours of the night, and the handdriers in the toilets next door which sounded like a hoover being operated at all hours. The room I stayed in had a very squeaky bunk bed and just one plug socket. There was a sink in there, but little else and you could not socialise in there at all as there was no space. The catering facilities, although well equipped, were in a long thin kitchen beyond the cafe with no seating or tables. So we had to take our food on trays through the cafe and into an overspill area that you had to go outside to get to. We felt like second class citizens compared to the cafe visitors and we were paying guests! You are not allowed to consume your own alchohol on the premises. Instead, if you would like some wine, it will cost you £20 per bottle. The cafe is lovely - including the lovely staff working there - but this is definitely the best bit of the place, and you don’t have to stay there to enjoy it. In fact you get a much better deal as a day visitor. To summarise: Hotel prices for a less than average hostel experience. I am very disappointed and, next time, will stay in a hotel or air bnb as that is sure to be much better value for money.

Excellent location & everything was as expected for YHA accommodation. Comfortable & convenient with very friendly helpful staff. Our second visit here. If you’re not going with children, I would recommend visiting during term time!!!

Lovely setting and found the place very secure , bit dusty in my room but bedding clean. Kitchen facilities excellent and water facilities great for clean water.. could be better the approach to the property bit risky on the mud and better walkway ..overall nice place to stay
