The YHA network is perfectly suited for hikers and more. I was walking the Cumbria Way and decided to stay at this property. It offered everything I needed: a great location, a comfortable bed, access to clean bathrooms, friendly staff, and a self-catering kitchen. Simple, efficient, and exactly what a tired walker needs at the end of the day!

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 Bowness-on-Windermere

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.
