YHA The Sill at Hadrian's Wall

A 2 day stay in a private twin while touring on a motorbike . The location ideal for the wall and local history. The accommodation is excellent, clean , comfy mattress, superb shower and quiet. The staff were superb, friendly and chatty. The food also very good and great value especially the breakfast. I would have stayed much longer but the price tripled at the weekends for the same room so managed to find something local within my budget. I know YHA have this dynamic pricing but to triple the price is a bit much personally. But great value and experience for the time I was there

Hard to fault this brilliant hostel. (I've stayed many times, now.) In terms of location, it couldn't be better; but also, it's spotlessly clean, very well-equipped (including the self-catering kitchen), with comfortable mattresses - and the staff are always chatty, informative and happy to help. In this instance, it's Anne and Lee I have to thank for another happy stay. All in all, it's a YHA gem.

Wonderful facilities. This place is better than some hotels I have stayed at. Keycard check in and keycard access to the sleeping area, clean spacious rooms. Nice modern showers.|We had a nice meal in the evening and used the spacious self catering kitchen in the morning.||Good starting point for a number of Hadrians Wall walks and some organised walks by the youth hostel as well.

Booked a private room for myself as a solo traveller.|The staff are friendly, the place is very clean and it had all I needed for an overnight stay whilst walking the Hadrian's Wall Path. |It is very bright , modern and clean .|I ate in the restaurant as I had taken advantage of a meal offer and really enjoyed my sausage and mash. |Highly recommend

I spent two nights here on a walk from Carlisle to Corbridge along Hadrian's Wall in August 2025. It was lovely. The staff were excellent, the breakfast was delicious and the room was warm and clean. The self catering kitchen was well equipped and I cooked my own evening meal. A welcome respite from my tent.

Took my young family (4 and 9 months old) here last weekend. The manager Lee was incredibly welcoming and Anna the caretaker was so lovely to the children. We were surprised with how much there was to do with the kids so they had a lovely time considering how ill-prepared we were. The facilities weren’t just impeccably clean but super comfortable too. Everything was really accessible with a buggy which was a bonus too. All in all a really nice place for us all to stay.||We will be returning for sure.

Very clean, modern, and welcoming. Nicely equipped dorm rooms. Lovely cappuccino from Anne at reception, thank you! Convenient parking and wonderful walks nearby.

Stayed here on the third night of our walk along Hadrian's Wall and we loved it! ||We stayed in a private bunk bedded room for two. Very clean and lovely shower! Probably best of the whole trip! ||It's an understatement to say we were knackered after reaching the Sill after an 18 mile yomp over the crags so it was lovely to chill out with a couple of drinks on the sofas in the main foyer - very comfy and always felt welcome! ||Oh the breakfast buffet! That was also brilliant. Plenty to pick from and we were also offered seconds due to breakfast being over and plenty of food being left over - we took the advantage to make ourselves some bacon butties for lunch due to a lack of options for places to eat on day 4. ||I would absolutely recommend a stay here - we had our evening meal in the very nearby Twice Brewed Inn - a brilliant tag team just when you need it!
