We understand better than anyone the implications of travelling with young
children. That is why we are doing all we can to make your hostelling
experience memorable for all the right reasons.
Children and families are welcome at all our hostels, although we have
highlighted a number of hostels within our network as being “Family
Hostels” as they are particularly well-suited to travelling with
and entertaining younger children.
Family hostels not only have private rooms available, many with en-suite
facilities, they also carry practical items such as travel cots, high
chairs, microwaves and toys.
In addition there is normally a TV and games room as well as extensive private gardens on site where the kids can let off some steam.
Close to great attractions and activities, these family hostels offer
a great base from which to explore the area. Our helpful staff are a great
source of knowledge on places to visit and things to see and do.
Hostelling is a very friendly and relaxed way to travel and our ethos
actively involves children.
