Highly recommended hostel
It was my second time I stayed in this hostel, and definitely will book it again. This is not only because of the location, which is perfect, but also because it's a lovely place to stay. All the staff members are lovely, friendly and professional. The rooms and communal area are clean, and well maintained. There's a restaurant in the main building offering breakfast and evening meals, and the kitchen located in a seperate building, for those who prefer to cook their own meals. The car park is rather small but you can park your car on the road, which is perfectly safe.

Would happily stay again
This hostel is wonderful. It is large but the bedrooms are large too so we didn’t feel cramped at all. The kitchen is excellent (All-be-it smallish for the number of people). The drying room is fantastic - dries sopping clothes overnight. The only negative was the mattresses - we’ve stayed in a lot of places & are not overly fussy but we had sore backs from these mattresses. There was a big hollow in mine. Also, as usual, don’t leave valuables in the car overnight - there was a van broken into while we were there. Otherwise, great place to stay.

Very high standard hostel
I use histels very often when on my travels as I always travel on a budget, and I have to say, this is a very high standard hostel, perfect for families and adults. The restaurant serves lovely food, the staff was friendly and helpful. There was a shower and a basin in my single room, which was a great bonus, the bed was comfy. The only minus during my stay was no signal/reception, I wasn't able to make any calls to my family to confirm that I'm safe (I travelled on my own), and the internet, even with the given wifi was simply very poor, so relying on google maps I couldn't plan in details my next day hikes. Other than that, it's a very good place in a perfect location to explore The Peak District.
