I loved how relaxing and peaceful the hostel is. Fabulous views and scenery and lots of birds. The sound of the river and non-existent light polution made for a perfect getaway. Friendly staff and a bargain meal & dessert.

Lovely staff and perfect location on the Cumbria Way. The setting is absolutely wonderful – right by the river on the edge of the charming town of Keswick. The staff were very friendly and welcoming. I truly love staying with YHA – they never disappoint!

Everything is great, location is stunning, room is nice, people are very nice, breakfast is decent. It is nice to sit in the hall, drink tea or beer and plan your day. Kitchen is alright, the hostel has labeled food boxes, fridges, sharp knives, stoves (which are a bit hard to use for stupid people like myself).

All hostels in Keswick

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    Great location, friendly staff, nice and warm during a very cold spell. Lovely bar/cafe. It's a youth hostel, so hardly luxurious accommodation, but it was clean and comfortable and exceeded my expectations. I loved the sound of the river flowing by.
