Guest Reviews
- K.Coulson (10/5): Good all round. - Did exactly what it said on the packet, comfy, good parking, helpful staff, lovely breakfast.
Thanks.
- Jacqueline (8/5): Good basic accommodation - Basic rooms, clean bedding. Take a towel. Quite noisy Saturday night but Sunday was quieter. Breakfast is particularly good and a vegetarian option is also available. Pre-booking is necessary. Staff very helpful and friendly.
- Guy (8/5): - I was pleasantly surprised by the YHA. Sure, you don't get a kettle or a TV in your room - so it is a little Spartan but it was quiet, clean and had individual rooms available with a shower and toilet. The local area was quiet and picturesque. I would happily stay here again.
- Kim (8/5): - Good location for walking to local attractions. Friendly, helpful staff. Shane about the noisy families next door keeping me awake til two in the morning.
- Max (10/5): Overall for the price it was sublime - Amazing
- Verified traveler (2/5): - I cancelled the booking however refused to refund me
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Very nice grounds with a real country feel. Very friendly and helpful staff.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Nicely placed YHA on the edge of the National Forest so plenty of good walking and cycling around. Dinner and breakfast is available and is of a good standard.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Excellent location, great facility and very good value for money.
- Jacqueline (8/5): Beautiful setting - Beautiful setting, so mush to see and do locally. All the amenities you need. Nice and clean, staff really friendly
- Susan (10/5): Ideal for the National Forest Trails - Basic accommodation but clean and comfortable. Staff very friendly and helpful. Ideally situated right next to the trails of the National Forest.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - I loved it, perfect setting, excellent value for money. I can't wait to go back!
- Amy (8/5): - Clean and lovely staff. Fantastic value for money
- Daniel (10/5): Comfortable - Clean with nice shower
- chris (10/5): Relaxing - Great friendly staff, will be visiting again
- Verified traveler (8/5): Nice new features for the YHA - Great hostel, clean and welcoming. They have both a self-catering kitchen, and a cafe and bar--really nice feature for a YHA!
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Great hotel! Cheap, clean, friendly staff and tasty food
- Verified traveler (10/5): YHA, AOK! - It is what I expected, plus a little more as it has a restaurant onsite, plus a full kitchen so you can cook your own food. The room was comfortable for one and it's next to a lovely forest and canal area so great for walking.
Compared with a hotel it is a little basic, but then it was inexpensive and a different type of stay. Staff were friendly and helpful
- Verified traveler (8/5): Cheap and basic - Ok considering the price. Had a 4 bed private room for 39quid. Main issue is the bunk beds have waterproof mattresses on which make it very hot at night. Especially with 4 ppl in a small room and no air conditioning, none of out group had much decent sleep because it was so uncomfortable. Rest of the hostel and the surrounding area is nice. Good bar and pool table, we didn't eat thoughts cannot review food.
- Jaqui (8/5): - I had a very nice stay room was clean and comfortable staff were friendly and helpful
