    Breakfast had run out of some items of hot food, also did not contain everything advertised on reception (fresh fruit, veggie sausages) and cutlery etc was not full. I would stay again overall, but not sure i would pay for breakfast again.

    Nice room, comfortable. Quiet. Friendly staff on reception.

    the beds were a bit uncomfortable and every time someone moved it woke you up with the loud creaking from the beds

    the facilities were great with lovely walks from the site. very reasonable price and the staff friendly

    Could have been better lighting around the outside of the site, the children were playing outside and once it got dark, you could barely see so would be nice to have some lighting or sensors. The rooms are small but they were only for sleeping so was more than OK.

    Beautiful location in the heart of the National Forest, wonderful staff always on hand to help, very clean rooms and comfortable beds. Such a relaxing stay. We loved our stay and can't wait to come back.

    Well, bunk beds are not our ideal choice (we are a family with two kids), but for the price, we could survive that for one night!

    We were visiting with friends in the Bourton on Trent area and just needed a place to crash overnight before traveling to our next destination. The staff was extremely helpful and friendly, the rate was great, everything was as promised, the property was quiet, and we were very satisfied!

    Shower mat was too slippery to stand on - looked mouldy and was v dangerous. Shower knob was missing bar so hard to turn. Sink was v slow to drain so was probably blocked.

    Nice location. Staff friendly and helpful. Breakfast good. Beds quite comfy and curtains did a good job of darkening the room so slept well.

    Nothing to do with the place itself but it is very hard to get a cab in under 30 minutes in that area

    The hostel was more than i expected and the staff were so kind and considerate to all of our need. Nice and quiet so no problem sleeping and the food and drink were reasonably priced and highly enjoyable.

    Location (you should advertise that you are next door to Conkers parkrun,we didn't know!) Liked the building, especially the dining room. First time staying at a YHA as a family, will definitely consider again for the future.

    I couldn’t get WiFi anywhere. Shower a bit weak flow to wash hair! I would have liked cerial or continental breakfast but since covid, reduced menu only (cooked veg or non veg big breakfast). I misunderstood the booking through booking .com and thought the breakfast was included, which it wasn’t. But it was reasonably priced anyway and generous portions.

    Clean, well organised, comfy, lovely grounds and lots of walking/ cycling trails marked. The cafe came in handy for dinner as well as breakfast. Peaceful and quiet.

    the beds weren’t very comfy, mine was very hard and creaked at the slightest movement. not sure if we are just unlucky with our room. I didn’t get a good nights sleep as was uncomfortable most of the night. shower was ok, but not very powerful. toilet in room smelt, possibly drain smell but only a problem when toilet door was open. walls are very thin, could here conversation next door.

    it was really accessible and good value for money, staff were really friendly. location was easy to get to. it was clean.
