YHA Grasmere Butharlyp Howe

the hostel provided all the amenities to make our stay comfortable - from a self-catering kitchen to laundry machines. The location was also near to the Grasmere village.

臨時中轉過夜的酒店，就在主路上下來就到了，停車場很大，方便停車！前台也有很多旅行小冊子供住客取閲，推薦入住！

Great stay at YHA Grasmere. Check in was great, easy and friendly. The hostel is a good size, large sitting room and restaurant area and space to sit outside. The self service kitchen was very small but clean and adequate. Stayed for two nights in a two bed room. There were plenty of clean toilets and showers just outside our room. We ordered food, pizzas were large and yummy and priced well at £10.49. Served hot with friendly service. The hostel is only about 3 mins walk to the centre of the village of Grasmere. Plenty of cafes, restaurants, pubs and shops, including a co-op express open until 10pm. I would highly recommend this YHA.

This is typical YHA grand building with enthusiastic helpful staff. Lady checking us in really helpful as we were hiked in and wanted a rest day so we could also see Grasmere. She made an effort to juggle stuff so we could. Pizza were really nice. Place clean and tidy. Tom checking on guests very pleasant. YHA does have camping but only limited to 5 pitches. Walking tents could get more, so not sure on how much discretion. Overall lovely stay. Do not like dynamic pricing but that’s YHA HQ not site

Having stayed in a number of YHAs over the past 18 months, Butharlyp Howe remains one of the best with a fantastic location in a beautiful building. The staff were all very friendly, the rooms clean and comfortable and the food was decent. Some excellent weather was also a massive bonus for a weekend at the Lakes. Perhaps I am highlighting my ignorance on these matters but I feel that the total cost of £215 for two nights in a 4 bed dorm with no en suite and breakfast on one morning was just about on the right side of affordable for us, thanks to 15% off (5% young persons/ 10% members). Looking ahead for future weekends, it would be over £200 for the Saturday night on its own, which seems a lot for budget accommodation. I worry that YHA are pricing out families at their current weekend rates and, with our 2 children being the only under 18s at the hostel during the weekend, perhaps that is already happening and seems counter to their mission. Overall we had a brilliant stay at a fantastic hostel, but unless we can manage a night midweek when it is significantly cheaper, weekend stays might well be beyond our budget.

Had an amazing time staying at YHA Grasmere in February. Not only is this one of the best locations to base yourself to explore the lakes in general, but the staff are amazing and always on hand to help and support. Food was excellent throughout the week. We were made to feel welcome from the moment we arrived to the moment we left. An absolutely excellent week, thank you to the staff at YHA Grasmere.
