“a delightful rural retreat”
This Lakeland slate house is 0.5 miles above Buttermere village, and ideal for the famous Haystacks walk. YHA Buttermere has a bar/restaurant with views of the Red Pike and High Stile mountains. Accommodation is in dormitory rooms, or private rooms with a shared bathroom. The majority of rooms contain bunk beds. A laundry facility and a lounge area are all on site. For making your own meals, YHA Buttermere also has a self-catering kitchen. Local ales and wines are served in the bar/restaurant. Walks of all levels start from Buttermere village, which is in a quieter area of the Lake District. Red squirrels and woodpeckers can often be spotted in the grounds. You can park for free, and store bicycles on site. There is also a drying room for wet clothes. All guests must show a valid photo ID upon check-in. Driver’s license, passport, student ID or similarly recognised national identity cards are accepted. Please note that towels are not included in the room rate. Guests can hire them at the property or bring their own. All bookings for more than 16 people will not be accepted by YHA and will be cancelled. Please note this property does not charge an additional temporary membership fee. Discounts are not available for members of YHA (England and Wales) or IYHF as part of this booking.
This may be my favourite hostel this trip. I was in the top room and with covid protocols, rooms were all private so had the place to myself. The room had a sink, beds had lights and outlets. Down a floor for shared washrooms. Fantastic, comfy common areas. Laundry on the main floor; washer and hang to dry. I had to go to the main area for wifi and even that was a bit spotty. They served meals that needed to be preordered. I did not eat there. There was no early check in; this may have been because of covid/staffing issues. The building did not open until check in. There is onsite parking which did fill up.
Buttermere is a very small community and absolutely gorgeous and a short walk. A couple restaurants in town but some do have restricted hours for guests who are not staying in their establishments. Tons of hiking options, the lakes are beautiful. Ice cream in town. This place is a relaxation dream! Love it!
