Situated amidst some of the finest mountain scenery in England with immediate access to world class mountain biking, road cycling, walking, fell running and climbing. The bunkhouse has 20 single beds divided into 3 twin rooms, one room of 6 and one room of 8 (all bunk beds). The rooms are simple but comfortable and each room has a double plug socket. The bunkhouse has biomass central heating throughout so its toasty warm with an endless supply of hot water with powerful showers. There are separate male and female shower and toilet facilities shared between all rooms. Well behaved dogs are welcome, provided they are never left alone in the room and are not allowed to wander freely around the bunkhouse or surrounding areas. When out walking, dogs should be kept on a lead at all times as the sheep are allowed to freely roam the Langdale Valley.

Head to the other side of the small town to explore the beautiful Stock Ghyll Force waterfall and hunt for rainbows in the spray. There's also a Roman fort close at hand in Ambleside and the Peter Hill art gallery in the centre of town will tempt art lovers.

Thanks to the superb location in the centre of the Lakes the main attractions further afield are:

  • Walking and hiking around Grasmere, Windermere and Thirlmere
  • Climbing Scaffell Pike
  • Mountain biking
  • Fell running

Don't miss Castle Wray's nineteenth century charm or the magic of Wordsworth's Dove Cottage, close to the edge of Grasmere's tranquil shore.
