We arrived later than expected around 9pm. There was a notice on the door saying staff had gone home and we would have to stay somewhere else at very short notice. A guest staying there told us she was not to let us in even though we had paid well in advance. We had a family group of 5 and therefore no accommodation. They did not reply to an email and their phone number had no answerphone. There is no emergency YHA contact phone number or anybody on duty anywhere. We luckily found another place to stay over night at our expense. We have begun a dispute with them to recover costs we incurred. The service was poor and no apology from staff.

Absolutely brilliant! We snagged a great deal on a private room for £35 and it was fab. The location is beautiful, our room had everything we needed including a wardrobe, sink, and lovely views, the communal areas were clean, tidy and comfy and the kitchen had everything you need. The bathroom was nice, more like a home bathroom than a usual shower cubicle type in some hostels. Things to note: There's no parking so you'll park in the carpark but its not very costly for 24hours ( around £6 I think) and only 5 - 10 mins to walk. Take your own towels as usual in a hostel and tea/coffee etc... Lots of lovely places to explore nearby, some fantastic walks inland with old churches and some great hills, and the coastal walks of course, and pretty shops, cafes and restaurants so a nice little weekend spot. Definitely worth a visit if you see a good deal room. I personally wouldn't pay more than £40-£50 but i'm tight so thats probably just me.

A lovely little hostel, in an absolutely perfect location. Fab staff & good self catering facilities. Would recommend & definitely stay again. Fab cliff top walks & dramatic scenery all around. A great base to explore the North Cornish coastline.

fab location right by the river complete with ducks etc. Very pretty scenery. clean, modern yet in a characterful old building. On south west coastal path route. The place is well kept and organised. Will be back!

Not just an incredible stay for a hostel but comparable to the kind of stay I’d have expected from a 5-star hotel. One of the best accommodation experiences I’ve ever had and I’ve spent years travelling the world. The team are there during check-out and check-in times and always treated us as friends. Our room was right by the river and we slept with the sound of that or the sound of the tide coming or going which was heavenly. Boscastle is beautiful and we spent each day walking for hours and the evening eating delicious food in the local pubs, restaurants and cafes. We couldn’t have had a more perfect stay, thank you Boscastle YHA!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at YHA Boscastle. The location is second to none, the hostel was spotlessly clean, the staff were friendly and helpful, the communal spaces and our private room were comfortable and spacious. We will definitely stay in more YHAs but I think this one will be hard to beat.

Incredible location, we were able to paddle board from the hostel and sunset from the rocks was beautiful. The hostel was very clean. Great for a couple of nights family get away or part of a longer trip.

The location is the best there is! Right on the harbour at Boscastle. Couldn't have asked for better. Near to the bus stops, and a few little shops including a premier store at the top of the hill if you are self catering. Staff were extremely helpful, allowing us to drop our bag off in the morning and then come back at 5pm for check in. The harbour is where all the action takes place especially at high tide, where my grandson spent ages jumping off into the sea. Near by is The Devils Bellows, go over the bridge and take the path to the right just to the top past the boats (5mins walk) Go 2hrs before low or 2hrs after high tide and you will hear the blow hole in the cliffs opposite making strange noises. You can see it spitting the water out too.
