   went with Rebel Badge Club for Traitors. loads of utensils etc. in the kitchen and I loved the way the main room was decorated. quite a few spiders and their webs in the bedroom but it wasn't like it was dirty or anything. the bathrooms in particular were much cleaner than in some hotels I've been in. I actually found the beds super comfortable but I know not everyone in the Club agreed lol. Geocache onsite was a bonus! plenty of outdoor seating areas which was perfect in such lovely weather but also plenty indoors too. lovely wide grounds to explore and hold activities in

   Hi - I rang to speak to someone at the Hostel it was forwarded to a number that just said - voicemail disabled - the call was dropped - not an ideal way to communicate - I was visiting the area and wanted to pop by to look at the facilities and check for hire - realising no one was on site and all locked up - I tried ringing.

   We had exclusive hire and hosted our wedding party here. We had the best weekend! The communal space was great, the rooms were clean and tidy and the grounds were beautiful. The doors open onto the patio area and so the space flowed really well. The hostel staff were great at communicating and answering our many questions in the months before. Lots of great walks nearby and it felt very secluded. Cannot recommend this place enough!

   I brought our Under 15s rugby tour here and we had a great time. We were treated very well, accommodation and food was perfect, and there was even a seperate room to use in the evening. Plenty to do at the nearby park and snow sports centre. Thank you.

   Stayed 2 nights, mid-Feb, 1 adult, 2 young children. Very warm welcome on arrival and efficient check-in. The hostel is modern, clean and well-positioned for a number of local attractions. The room was compact but clean and very warm at night, thankfully! Slight downside was the noise and timing of the bathroom fan: whilst obviously necessary, it was very loud for late night or early morning use and seemed to stay on for ages. Other than that, great little room and very clean. Informative displays on the corridors about the hostel's history and its role in the National Forest itself. We used the self-catering facilities for all of our meals. This kitchen is very well equipped (lots of fridge space and plenty of all the necessaries). Would love to revisit in the summer months so kids can play outside, we can make use of more of the external facilities and enjoy more of the local scenery. Spent a day at Conkers too: couldn't recommend it enough. Excellent value for money and kept us all engrossed for over 6 hours! Back to the hostel (hopefully), was a very pleasant, short break - well worth a visit if you're looking to explore the National Forest. Thank you for a great stay.

   Nice place to stay. Excellent location next to a woodland with great green scenery. Dorm room (£10) was standard but comfortable with a decent but noisy bunk bed, plug sockets and lockable storage. Bathroom was fine. Facilities themselves were more than adequate; a bike locker with repair station, big self-catering facility, lots of seating indoor and out, plus the buffet breakfast (extra price) was OK and had many options. I'd stay here again!
