Situated in a picturesque valley on the rugged north Cornwall coast, this National Trust-owned property is on the harbour edge. Affordable, comfortable accommodation is offered at this YHA hostel. A dining room is on offer for guests, and there is a kitchen for self-catering. Comfortable sofas are found in the lounge. The beautiful Cornish coastline can be explored using the wide range of nearby footpaths, and the popular surfing destination of Bude is 20 minutes’ journey by car. The pretty, bustling fishing village of Boscastle is just a 10-minute stroll away. There are several local pubs serving traditional Cornish food and local ales, and there is also a small store and bakery in the village. The majority of rooms contain bunk beds.

Couples particularly like the location — they rated it 10 for a two-person trip.
