The kitchen facilities are first rate. The communal lounge is kitted out with Barker & Stonehouse'esk furniture. The views from the lounge window overlooking the harbour and Bay aren't too shabby either. The owner is super nice and really helpful.

Surrounded by lovely greenery in the heart of vibrant Keswick centre, YHA Keswick is just a 10-minute walk from Lake Derwentwater. It features a restaurant and self-catering kitchen.

Wi-Fi access is available, along with luggage storage. The majority of rooms contain bunk beds. The people at the front desk were incredibly friendly and helpful. Given how many people on a floor were sharing the showers and toilets, they were very clean and I appreciated that they were separate and individual. The drying room was very helpful too! The breakfast options were of good value. As others mention, the river sounds outside the window were lovely to fall asleep to.

The units at the hostel come with a seating area and a flat-screen TV. At Hillside Farm, all rooms come with a shared bathroom with a shower. Sandra is a wonderful hostess! She is very communicable, helpful and friendly. She provides everything needed for a comfortable stay, plus offers a fresh cooked breakfast. With only three people staying, we had our own spaces and a bit more privacy. A hostel style bunk room on a farm, the location is great to be out in a peaceful area, yet a short drive to the city and close to the coast.
