Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    This hostel has an amazing location and is the best option for people interested in drinking, meeting new people or learning how to surf. Its a very sociable hostel where u can also get a pretty decent nights sleep.

    Lee was extremely welcoming from the outset and throughout my stay, always checking I was comfortable. The beds were very comfortable and the pillows were great which is not something I ever find in a hostel! Everywhere was exceptionally clean, and breakfast was brilliant with loads of options. Easy to find and a great location for surfing and exploring Cornwall. As a solo female traveller I felt really safe and would not hesitate to stay here again. Cannot recommend enough.

    One of the best hostels I've ever stayed in. The staff was lovely, the beds were great, the room was silent and the bathroom was very clean.

    Beautiful cliff top location with stunning sea views (especially from the inn’s terrace). Good basic hostel facilities. Shower good enough. Good staff at check in and bar. Burger and chips, coleslaw at bar on terrace good. Not cheapest but 25% off for being a hostel guest nice.
