The food was quite dry, the beds were mostly hard and the pillows were too fluffy and my head sank into them(personal preference)! The bathroom was quite pleasant, I only stayed for one night but it was a tiny bedroom for 6 people. There wasn’t any service or wi-fi except in the reception. I feel it could be a little more clean but the staff were nice. Surprisingly, there was no locks on the doors, where it would be possible for someone to come in without a key or anything. But in all fairness the Hostel is in the middle of no where and I’m sure they take very good care of the place. Was a nice place to stay for one night! It’s great for large groups!

What a lovely place to stay, absolutely beautiful. Just a pity there were so many unruly kids and such poor parenting. Even the staff were annoyed. Now I am filling the word count as I have said what I wanted to.

I arranged a mini cycling tour with my cycling club and Ilam Hall was the chosen venue. From start the finish it was simply a great experience. The staff were all friendly and helpful and couldn't do enough for us. The evening meal was served quickly and served with a smile, what more do you want? What did annoy me, and this is no reflection of the staff at all, l walked into the lounge the following morning where families had been sat with thier children the night before. There were odd jigsaw pieces and Scrabble letters dotted around the floor. I think it's really selfish that people don't clear up the mess that thier children have made and return any loose puzzle or game pieces to the correct boxes. So now someone else has to do it so other people can enjoy the games or puzzles, so selfish. 😡

Located in the stunning national trust park, the building will take your breath away. The staff are super friendly & welcoming, all areas social and private are immaculately clean. We used this as a base for alton towers and it was perfect. About 25 min drive.

Great location, friendly staff and an absolute bargain. The only downsides are the communal kitchen (the window fan is filthy) and the lack of any environmental concern about heat loss from the the many drafty doors and windows. The self catering dining area could be cosy if you did not see daylight through the door. The broken bathroom window needs at least a temporary patch. "Waiting to get it fixed" is not a good excuse, particularly when it is below freezing.

Fantastic value for money, very clean, building is old so expect condensation on windows and the like. If we had been organised would have taken a bag of microwave dinners and milk, communal kitchen has everything you could need. Only thing I missed was a kettle in room for cups of tea. Food from restaurant: breakfast very good with everything hot and tasty and as much as you like. Evening meal good but again my preference I would have liked hot water and teas and coffees left out like breakfast.

What an amazingly beautiful place and accommodating, food great and grounds I could have spent weeks exploring instead of having to work. Bedding as usual for YHA clean and very comfortable . Thankyou for a great stay

I've never stayed at a hostel before therefore my opinion is probably biased but I'll try anything once . The first thing that struck us was lack of signs from the car park to the reception, kept having to ask folk. On arriving at the reception one of our party had forgotten their photo I.D & because of this the rest of the family could not check into a family room. I never figured out why it was needed, we are all obviously British citizens. They had to wait over three hours before I.D could be emailed to them. Then there was the parking, not out the front what about those with mobility problems? The dinner consisted of powered mash, very much old school meal standard. The room could be described as a cell, first bathroom smelly. It put me off going to another one the next night, we headed home. Couldn't fault the grounds, views & hiking area.
