Description:
This Victorian folly resembles a tiny, turreted castle and perches on the hillside overlooking the historic village of Eyam, famous for its tragic past. Two thirds of the village population was wiped out during the Great Plague of the 17th century, and you can trace the tale with a wander through the village to see the Plague Cottages and parish church. An ideal location for families, YHA Eyam sits on the boundary of the contrasting landscapes of the White Peak and Dark Peak, there’s also a varied array of excellent walking.
