YHA Castleton Losehill Hall  

The staff were professional, the food and facilities were very good. The location was beautiful with sheep grazing around the YHA Castleton Losehill Hall.

Nothing, everything was ok!

Beautiful building and surroundings, friendly and efficient staff

There was a problem with the booking. I booked a private room for 5 people but the e-mail from booking.com to the yha said it was a dorm booking (even though my confirmation e-mail clearly stated it was a room for 5 and we booked the whole room.) The communication procedures between booking.com and yha need improving. I was very disappointed that my friends and I did not have a room to ourselves

The most incredible value place I have ever stayed at. Brilliant facilities.

It's best advantage is the location coupled with plenty of space, particularly for children to play in. The staff are friendly and helpful and the self-catering kitchen looks good. The breakfast is also very good value for money.

It was a pleasure to stay at this former manor house. It was particularly interesting to live in the original part of the house, where it made one feel a little bit like in older days. The hostel has a big, well equipped kitchen and a nice small library. The location is very convenient – around 10min walk to Castleton, 25min to Hope and the surrounding park is beautiful. There are also special attractions for the kids in the park, which makes it a good destination for families.

Unfortunately there were no hairdryers nor it was possible to borrow one at reception.

Good location Clean. Family room with en suite very convenient

noisy bedroom, constant hum from ? ventilation. Too hot.

The communal kitchen was great The hostel was very clean The bathroom was functional and suitable for our trip. The bird of prey display was interesting and informative. Beer at reception was just what we needed after a long walk. A very family friendly hostel. We would love to visit again soon.

More board games for adults such as scrabble and a book exchange would be good. The entrance driveway could be lit up discreetly with a few sola lights, I was scared walking back in the dark lol!! (my boyfriend was laughing at me ;-( )

Very friendly and helpful staff. Lovely surroundings - great for the kids to explore. Lovely building , beautifully decorated and clean

Lighting the wood burning stove in the lounges would have added to the ambiance and made it feel more cosy especially as the weather has been so cold.

Fantastic staff, location and value.

Good standard twin room and spacious communal facilities

The room (B7) was too hot at night even though we turned the radiator off and opened the window. Presumably the heating was on as it was very cold outside, but it was still too hot inside!

beautiful old building with amazing period features in lovely grounds. friendly helpful staff and excellent facilities.

Great location, impressive building inside and out, pleasant staff, good facilities.

Would like soap in dorm bathroom

The house is spectacular and well maintained. The bedrooms are well equipt and laid out. All staff are friendly and helpful. Lovely to have a comunial lounge and librairy

The driveway needs light by the cattle grid at night, my friend fell into it which could of caused a severe injury, not everyone will have a touch.

Everything. Absolutley nothing negative to say. Lay out comfort value .all excellent.

Comfortable lounge. friendly staff

Central heating was on all night. I could turn the radiator off but the long feeder pipe was still warm all night.

Flexible on arrival time Low cost Nice staff

location and general ambiance was superb

the bathrom smelt of damp, despite beign clean

It was very clean and new feeling. I enjoyed the facilities also - the dining area, the bar etc. great now faults will definitely be back soon!

Nothing. Great.

The hostel had a welcoming feel and the facilities are to a good standard. The food was good and I attended the screening of a film, which worked well also.

I was under the impression that the hostel was not full but the 6 bed room I was in was full to capacity with people arriving for the first time between 12 midnight and 1am, which was disruptive. I would have expected arrangements to have been made for late arrivals to go in spare rooms. Not a major problem but it was commented on by someone else in the room, so worthy of inluding here.

It has been re-furbished in good taste and high standard.The staff are well aquainted with the area and are eager to please

Disgarded items abandoned at the rear. A skip or container would improve the areas care.

The staff were great and very friendly, the location fantastic and the facilities were superb. enjoyed a really good stay - came for an open day at Uni of Derby Buxton and am defiinately plannign to return for a walking holiday.

.....stay was too short!

Very friendly and helpful staff, and for a youth hostel the facilities were very good. We stayed in a twin room that had its own bathroom with shower. Easy access from the Hall to walks up losehill and across the ridge to Man tor. Very close within walking distance to Castleton town and Hope. Very comfortable and relaxing place to stay for all people including children.

Helpfulness, freindlinjess of staff. Facilities, kitchen, relaxation rooms, people.

TV Room not accessible to wider group.

Cleanliness, modern and bright. Interesting building with lots of character and history.

No information wall. For example stayed at Edale YHA and on their walls had loads of information on local walks, local cycling, huge map with routes on of the area. All mapped out for different abilities very useful. More information than what the locatl tourist office gave me.

The location

The breakfast was attrocious
