YHA Boggle Hole

The cafe on site is superb and I chose a veggie breakfast bap. Cosy vibes and friendly staff. Would highly recommend if you’re staying at the YHA or just passing on your beach walk. Looks a lovely place to stay too! Would love to come back and stay here.

Brilliant, stunning hostel, with great facilities, super friendly and helpful staff. I've stayed here before but, this time, I had a room in the Crow's nest. Great new building with small kitchen (kettle, sink, fridge, cutlery and plates). My room was for 3 but I travelled alone, so it was very spacious and with an en suite!! Great value for money. |And of course, the location is superb! Right by the beach, a short walk to Robin Hood's bay by beach or up the coastal path. Stunning views and lots of fossils too!

Thank you to the most amazing staff at Boggle Hole. You made our trip! We were quite a "busy and entertaining" group but you guys catered to our every need. The food you produced was exceptional. The service you offered was fabulous. Your overall friendliness, support, banter and positivity was second to none. The WHOLE group appreciated every staff member and you made our trip magic. We will be back... just to visit you! Thank you!

Really nice place overall in a great location, having not stayed in a YHA or any hostel before. I therefore wasn't sure what to expect and my expectations were low.|Stayed here for one night having wanted to cheaply extend our holiday. A brisk walk down to the hostel and love how it is literally right on the beach. An old mill previously, it had great character and charm.|We stayed in a separate building called the crows nest. Everything very basic and therefore beds were too. Didn't sleep great as the doors in the corridor outside the rooms squeaked or slammed. They ideally need to oil a few of them and get some soft close hinges on the fire doors. In addition the bed mattresses are very hard with no ventilation within the rooms. As 5 of us were in one room, even with the window open it was like being in the Caribbean. Therefore a restless nights sleep for adults at the least.|The restaurant was great, good value and decent quality. Other facilities were also clean, tidy and well presented. Breakfast was really good also.|Staff very friendly and welcoming. Overall we left with a decent opinion of YHA. A value option for our future travel plans albeit a very basic one.

An amazing find! The hostel is in a great location, right on the sea front, with a stream along side, for the children to play in. The staff couldn't do enough to help and were so friendly, always seeing if things were OK or if we'd had a good day. The food was absolutely delicious (we ate breakfast in-house and self catered in the evening). The self catering kitchen was small but well equipped and fine for the number of people who were using it during our stay. They have a great cafe/bar too with a super selection of cakes! The atmosphere was fabulous, with great attention given to the overall look of the place - very sea themed - and lots of little extras for to children including fossil books to browse (in case you find some on the beach) , games to play and trail hunts to be competed around the yha/grounds. I would highly recommend staying here! The only thing that is a drawback is that there's no way of getting your car near to the hostel - it's about a quarter-mile walk from the car park - so pack lightly as you've got to carry everything you need down a hill to the YHA, and then back uphill at the end of your stay!

One of my favourite places to stay in the UK. I have been back multiple times The location….is AMAZING! No where else can compete. Lovely walk in to robin hoods bay on your left, and can access the costal path to ravenscar on your right. The cafe is lovely too.

I recently stayed at this place with a friend and three kids, and we all had different impressions, but I personally loved it. The rooms in the new building are excellent, offering a restful environment. Our room was spacious and clean, with five comfortable beds, perfectly suited for our needs. There’s a convenient kitchenette with a fridge where you can store your food, and we appreciated the complimentary tea, coffee, and milk.Waking up to the sound of sheep in the morning was a charming experience, and the fresh air is invigorating. One of the best things about this place is its location—if you're coming from a long journey, it’s the perfect spot to leave your belongings and enjoy a scenic walk to Robin Hood’s Bay. The views along the path are stunning, and it’s an easy walk back.The food here is amazing—delicious and reasonably priced. The staff is incredibly friendly and welcoming. Although there isn’t a beach for lounging, it’s great for a walk and exploring crabs along the shore. Parking is a bit of a walk from the accommodation, but I didn’t mind at all.There’s also Wi-Fi available, which was a nice bonus. Overall, it’s a wonderful place to stay that offers great value for money. If you found this review helpful, I’d appreciate a like! Ask me any questions I can respond for you.

Wonderful location, fantastic welcome and stay. Staff helpful, friendly and enthusiastic to ensure your stay is as good as it can be. Bar / cafe is cozy and homely, food looked amazing and not too badly priced. Car park at top of hill, meaning a walk down a steepish hill. Great for families / couples exploring or visiting the area. We will certainly be going back again.|RECOMMENDATIONS: Take a pillow and towels with you. I would also recommend (not essential though) taking an extra sheet to put on the mattress. We found that the single sheet wasn’t enough to remove the feeling of the rubber covering on the mattress. Don’t let these things put you off staying here though, it’s brilliant. We also loved the fossil hunting in the little bay at the front.

A hostel of considerable charm and character, in a delightful coastal setting in the North York Moors National Park. A mill, and annexe, in a steep ravine running down to the sea, close to Robin Hood's Bay The Youth Hostel (YHA) at Boggle Hole nestles in a ravine with a dramatic entrance from the beach from which Robin Hoods Bay can be seen in the distance. This youth hostel is in a quiet setting on a secluded bay a 20-minute walk along the beach from Robin Hoods Bay. It consists of two buildings and features a kitchen and a quiet lounge. Most dorms have four beds but there are a couple of larger rooms. A former corn millwith the beach on the doorstep. Once refuge for shipwrecked mariners. Has great charm. Group accommodation, study rooms, ideal for family holidays. Adult: £11.95 Under 18: £8.95 It's clean, it's a friendly atmosphere like all rural YHA's seem to have, and a location that's well worth the walk. 3 star Hostel rating. Accommodation is in 2-6+ bedded rooms and facilities include TV, kitchen and evening meals. Food is prepared using fresh, seasonal ingredients, sourced locally where available, prepared and cooked to order. Flexible meal times to fit in with your itinerary and with prior notice, they are happy to cater for any special dietary requests. The bay in front of YHA Boggle Hole was once a notorious smugglers haunt. Nowadays all ages love beachcombing, searching for fossils and rockpool life on its shore.

A lovely welcoming hostel with friendly staff. Has the YHA three star rating, but it is nicer than others I have stayed in with higher ratings. Set in a secluded bay, it is reached by a short walk along the beach or the cliff-top path. The bay is a fabulous place for children to play, although young children should probably be under supervision. Accommodation is either in the main building or in a separate building up some steep steps. The rooms were nice and comfortable, the showers and toilet facilities were kept clean and tidy. You can either cater for yourself in the self-catering kitchen, whichis stocked with a wide array of pots and pans, crockery and cutlery, or you can eat the delicious meals prepared by the hostel's kitchen staff and eat in the friendly communal dining room. The food is good and not too pricey at all. There's a lot to do in the area. The nearby Robin Hood's bay is famous as the site of smuggling and its narrow cobbled streets are enchanting when not packed with tourists. Or you could hire a bike from the hostel and head off on the coastal cycle route to Whitby or Scarborough.
