Bunk beds were a bit short and the mattresses a bit thin but still got a good night's sleep.

Great location and great hostel. Really good kitchen facilities and a nice lounge with a wildlife viewing area.

We stayed at the YHA Dartmoor for one night, even though we only live an hour away, because our 10-year-old son had such a fantastic time there during his school residential. We thought it would be a perfect way to wrap up the summer holidays with a day exploring Dartmoor, followed by an overnight stay. The hostel was spotless, and the staff were incredibly welcoming and helpful. We highly recommend opting for the cooked breakfast – the quality of the food was excellent. The rooms were clean, and it was a real treat to wake up to such a beautiful view. There were plenty of toilets and showers available, and the shower itself was wonderfully hot. We’ll certainly be returning.

The atmosphere and the location

There seemed to be only one upstairs loo, although this wasn't a problem.

The warden Jane, was very welcoming and exceptionally helpful. The food was far better than we all expected , having stayed at other hostels before. Goo luck Jane, at your new hostel in Pembrokeshire!

Wonderful location. A return to an old favorite. We tend to book at last minute and have never found a vacancy in years.

I honestly have nothing negative to say. With this basic level of accommodation, me and my friend were both very pleasantly surprised with how comfortable we both were. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this location for anyone looking for a good value base to their hiking holiday.

This site has all the facilities you need and they are all done very well. The bunks we're extremely comfortable and the toilet and shower facilities were clean and always maintained to a high standard. Food was also excellent with breakfasts and evening meals providing the perfect start and finish to your days walking. The staff were all very accommodating and friendly and the location could not be better, with a short 20 minute walk to the main through road as well as the paths to start exploring this truly incredibly part of the country.

Beautiful old building with amazing character and superb value for money. Welcoming atmosphere and staff and the nature of YHA is you always end up chatting to other interesting people when in the communal eating area. Just an absolutely fantastic stay on our overnight motorcycle tour of Dartmoor. The perfect antidote to over priced, unecessary accomodation prices everywhere else. Loved it and definitely going to make a return trip in the future 😎👍

The only missing this we felt is about not having any cupboard in the room as we didn't have anything to hang our clothes. The bunk beds are not very comfortable.

Location and the value of stay, overall excellent facilities are there in its self service kitchen.

Bedroom walls were thin which could be a problem if you are a light sleeper.

Fabulous location. Lovely farm building. Very friendly and helpful host. Clean and tidy throughout. Facilities for bicycle storage. Good value. Would happily return.

All ok

Clean and quiet

Maybe somewhere to store or hang clothes in the bedroom….but then that would take away precious space.

Location is idyllic. The hostel is clean, comfy, characterful and good value. The staff are welcoming and accommodating.

Location and friendly welcome and service

Check-in is available up to 8:30 PM. A detail that is very easy to overlook if you are booking on the go and not checked the details of the confirmation email. Thankfully the lady on reception stayed late waiting for our arrival despite not been able to get in touch for confirmation of arrival time

Friendly and helpful staff.

Very friendly atmosphere with nice service, best location for Tor walking tour around the moor. You can also enjoy relaxing and comfortable interaction with other guests, if you want to.

Other guests not washing their cutlery properly: dirty forks and knives are not a good start to a meal. The room I was in had two bunk beds taking up all the space, it felt like it was almost blocking the way going in, the room would really need to be a couple of square meters larger to accommodate these two beds in that angle.

The location is amazing, it is in an idyllic setting: literally the most beautiful forest I have ever seen. The host was very helpful and agreed that we would be able to check in late. The period building is beautiful.

The beds are not large enough for some tall people

The location of the YHA in the middle of the Dartmoor national park was perfect for a quick overnight stay. The english breakfast was very nice as well as the communication at the reception
