The rooms are all bunk bedded and we have 1 X 2 bed, 3 X 4 bed, 2 X 6 Bed, 2 X 7 bed, 1 X12 bed and 1 X 14 bed dorms.

We are situated just 4 minutes walk from the centre of Ambleside and 7 minutes walk from Lake Windermere
You can walk, run , cycle, mountain bike and tour from the door. We get a lot of climbers and tourists too.
The hostel is a quaint old building with steps and stairs everywhere, all dorms have fine fell views (you need to stand up for them on the second floor as they are velux windows), wash basins, squeaky floors, prehistoric plumbing, windows that rattle in a gale, hot water eventually, there are separate male and female facilities - but even these have steps in them! - All this in a great location, with tea and coffee and internet access thrown in - what more could you ask for?
So if you don't expect a lot you will not be disappointed, in fact you will probably be pleasantly surprised.
