A nice, clean and friendly venue. I little bit tucked away but not too bad. Staff are lovely. Lounge area is light and airy.The rooms were spacious and clean but shower did not empty quickly. I had to keep turning it off and waiting for water to clear.There was full internet signal in our room which was a blessing. Ample parking and safe location. Maybe 10 minutes walk into town.But…please learn to cook veggie sausages properly…they were completely uncooked on the inside.

Location great staff great! Beautiful grounds and view! I have stayed here before! However the room wasn’t clean! The smell of stale body odour was overwhelming! Could definitely do better on the cleaning front! Rooms need a deep clean or new carpets and mattresses! My friends room smelt bad as well so this wasn’t just one bad room! It’s a shame because it is a lovely setting’

Very unhelpful youth hostel. Booked to go. I have permanent ligament damage in my ankle which gives way without warning so requested to reserve bottom bunk. They claimed they too.small room to reserve bottom bunk. £44 lost. Other youth hostels i stayed at even small roomed ones were happy to reserve bottom bunk.

The showers in the private rooms are potentially lethal. Scalding water comes out at a terrifying pressure. THIS MUST BE RECTIFIED BEFORE SOMEONE IS HURT!
