YHA Wasdale Hall

Highly recommend YHA Wasdale its in a excellent location for exploring the surrounds of Wastwater Lake . The reception was exceptional and everyone was very helpful, the accommodation was clean and|comfortable, and the food was great too!! I would like to thank Donna, Tenzin and Emma and rest of the staff for making my stay comfortable.

Great location to stay in, definitely one of the best yha hostel I have stayed in, pity I only stayed for one night. the hostel is pretty and all its facilities are well kept. Only potential issue I can think of is the lack of public transport, luckily I drove a car so I did not face any issues. Big shout out to Evan(I think that's his name? sorry...) for staying up late way past the usual closing time to check us in. Absolute life saver.

A good place to stay before climbing Scafell Pike! Our experience staying in this hotel was wonderful! Friendly and warm staff, great food served here and the location. Where the tip of the lake sits in front of this place. Also, we can stargaze during the night, since the location is quite far from the residential area, with limited light pollution, spending the night having a coffee and cigs are recommended to do outside here!

Location is unbelievable! A few steps away from the lake, really close to Scafell pike. Emma was incredible, really helpful, friendly and caring.

YHA's are great places to stay. Sometimes their rules are frustrating and a little too much for me but would always recommend them. This one is a great place to have as your base camp if your not camping

Beautiful property, stunning location, really helpful and friendly staff. Highly recommended and I’ll definitely return.

One of the best locations for a YHA. A no-network zone indeed so need to be prepared accordingly. If you arrive at the place after 10AM, you may not be able to enter as the place opens up after 5PM. Although if you are already checked in and you have the code, it's not a problem. Has variety of breakfast options with the continental one being the cheapest complimentary option. Room service is decent. It looks an old Victorian Era lodge/house converted to YHA. They don't provide towels and toiletries. Bunk beds are neat and clean. Recommended by me✌️

Charming stay at a historic YHA by a beautiful lake—perfect for a swim! Beds are small but comfortable, and the friendly staff make you feel at home. A cozy spot with a fantastic, scenic location.|Food was limited with Pizza and soup but apart from that it’s self catering with appropriate equipment.
