Hostels in Cumbria, United Kingdom

I highly recommend this hostel, it’s a last-minute booking, but it turned out such a nice stay. The hostel is just by the lake, with misty view right outside of the window in the morning. Close to bus station, transportation convenient. What’s more, my roommates are amazing, three girls from London, one from the US.

We had a great stay at this hotel. It has a wonderful historic pub full of character, and the staff were exceptionally friendly. They regularly checked in to make sure everything was going well, which made us feel very welcome. One thing that really surprised us was the size of the food portions in the restaurant. I ordered what was supposed to be a small portion, but it was huge! The rooms were comfortable, and we also enjoyed the lovely courtyard and the outdoor seating area, perfect for relaxing with a drink. Breakfast was excellent, with both a cooked-to-order menu and a buffet offering plenty of choice. The only downside was the sound insulation. As it’s an older building, we could hear other guests quite clearly in the morning. Overall, it was a wonderful stay, and we would happily return.

I have only good things to say! Room was very spacious and lovely for the both of us and had everything you needed. We stayed in a triple room for 2 of us (but in the end room had 2 single beds and 2 bunk beds but no problems with that of course). Bed was very comfortable, shared showers and toilets outside were clean, spacious and bright. Counter staff Matt in particular was incredibly helpful and friendly, and helped us figure out a way to hike Blencathra via Sharp Edge in the morning, informed us of bus availabilities and schedules etc. They also allowed us to store luggage with them while we hiked and allowed us to use their toilets and showers to freshen up after the hike. We also had lunch there and food was delicious!! Really great hotel very value for money. Thank you!

A beautiful little hotel, I think there are only 6 rooms though. All staff were on hand for any queries and help in any way they can. During my stay it was lovely and sunny and they have an outdoor area idea for a while in the sun 😂. If you have any sort of disability and find it difficult to climb stairs this place is probably not for you, no lift in the hotel and all rooms are upstairs, the car park is at the back of the hotel with steps up to the hotel that has a hand rail but the few steps into the hotel doesn’t. I was in room 6, 3 lots of stairs to negotiate but the view was spectacular.

We used the travellers inn as we wanted to see the grisdale tarn and we needed to a room to stay after the sight. They allowed us to store our luggage at the inn as our check in was at 3pm. The rooms were clean and it overlooked a farm area with lots of sheep. The room had an aesthetic look and there was tea satchets we could have as well. The staff were kind and wonderful. The rooms had the britain charm you see in old english movies. If you love sheeps, kind people, good food and 80's british aesthetics- then this place is just for you. We loved our stay here.

Log fire in public bar was welcoming. Cold bedroom on arrival mid afternoon. Informed by staff member that central heating was on a timer and it would come on around 7 pm and turn off around 11 pm. No double glazing. I had to use an electric fan heater to cope with the cold. Breakfast staff very helpful, satisfying breakfast good produce and free range eggs. Car parking at rear entrance. Sunday lunch was promptly served with quick service. Close to railway station and the Priory Church.

The room is clean and tidy, the bath is convenient, you can cook, the service is thoughtful, and the scenery is superb. It takes 15 minutes to walk up from the gas station under the mountain, and the road is beautiful. There are many rural roads to continue to move forward, the scenery is getting more and more beautiful, passing through several small villages, it is convenient to eat and drink. It is easier to get motion sickness by taking a nearby bus, and the time is more than 1 hour.

Really enjoyed my stay in Room 5 of this inn. There was ample parking for guests. The room was cosy and clean. I especially loved the breakfast menu at this inn. Every night, you can fill up a form with your selection and in the morning, you just walk up to your assigned table and breakfast is served!
