The YHA is located in the middle of the mountain. There is a supermarket and a bus stop at the gas station at the foot of the mountain. There are many showers and toilets which are very convenient. There are many camping tents on the big lawn in front of the door.

I loved our stay at Windermere YHA. The setting is stunning, the facilities great and the staff lovely and really helpful. I stayed there for four nights with my partner and two older children in one of their private rooms which was very well equipped and clean. My favourite part by far was the amazing views of the lake from the outdoor area, where we would sit every evening to watch the sunset. I also really liked the amazing grounds with extensive garden to explore and be closer to the wildlife. Very recommendable.

First time at yha, windermere camping. This is a really great site with good views of the lake and countryside. Good bus connections and just over a mile to Brockholes activity centre. Super campsite or hostel for families, will defo be back.

Stayed in the yurt for one night and I was really impressed. Log fire in there so that was cosy, beds were comfy and linen really clean. The facilities were great in the main building to games, books, vending machine, bar etc. Toilets were clean didn't need to use the shower. Great views of the lake, would 100% stay again!

Great staff - fabulous location - nothing too much trouble! Stayed in the Airstream (1st time) - amazing! Also, like minded people stay here so always a good atmosphere. ...............................................................

A great tee-pee stay for three nights. Good facilities and great to arrive with everything set up and ready to go. Easy to find, decent car parking. Facilities good but shower block often a little muddy. We didn’t try food but did have a few drinks at the bar which was well stocked and moderately priced

Stopped here on a much longer trip to Scotland, Windermere made a great place to rest our heads for the night. We stayed in the Airstream as we had our dogs with us and all I can say is WOW! It was luxury glamping at YHA cost. We have stayed in all types of landpods, bell tents, cabins, tipis etc that different hostels have to offer up and down the country, and this Airstream was the best by far! The view from the hostel was phenomenal and we were treated to a magnificent sunset. We will definitely return for a longer stay!

12 mins late for breakfast and they wouldn't serve us, (1 adult, 2 children) though we had already paid. Technically our fault but they were quite rude about it. Bit disappointing as we've come here many times. ........................ ...
