Base Camp Hathersage, YHA Partner

Perfect location for hiking around the Peak District. Close to all th shops but not affected by any noise. About 8 mins walk to the station and only 2 pubs 2 minutes away for eating out after a long day of hiking.

It would be nice to have the common room be more inviting. Th kitchen had a raw meat smell that put me off from cooking there.

Amazing 👏 value. I was staying in a dorm for 6 people. Only had a fellow occupant for the first night Sunday. It was like having your own private accomodation

Not much ti dislike. I soon got fellow guests to acknowledge and speak to each other

Great location, good facilities, clean - I really enjoyed my stay.

The mattress was very hard and not very comfortable.

Base Camp Hathersage, YHA Partner, were new to us as hostel proprietors though we are regular hikers in the Hathersage area so in truth we didn't really know what to expect. The en-suite 4 bunk bedded room we had was excellent in every way as was the price we paid. The check in process was a little strange but fortunately we arrived when a staff member was still on site and he guided us through the process. There is parking on site for 6 vehicles but other parking is nearby. The bunk beds were each equipped with a power socket, storage pouch and bedside light which was an excellent idea as were the curtains on each bunk. The en-suite shower and hand basins were stocked with shower gel/liquid soap which was a nice touch and much appreciated.

It is hard to find fault for the money we paid for the accommodation but perhaps a larger selection of pots and pans could have been provided in the self-catering kitchen but that really is a very, very minor point. Each to their own, I always say, since there were plenty of options to cook your own food in the kitchen provided. On the other hand as there are plenty of places to eat out in Hathersage, then making ones own meals was not something we did ourselves
