Offering delicious home cooked meals, in addition to our large and fully equipped self-catering kitchen, the hostel is perfect for anybody visiting the Lakes.

Formerly YHA Elterwater, but now operating as an independent family business, the hostel has been welcoming guests since 1939.

“Its over 50 years since I stayed in a hostel, so a bit apprehensive, regarding our 2 night stay. However from the moment my wife and I arrived, could not have been more delighted.”
