History

Superseding Burley Youth Hostel, YHA New Forest has been in operation since 1959. A former family home, Cottesmore House was converted to take up to 36 guests at a time.

Fast forward to 2017, the hostel received a huge refurbishment. Improvements to the bedrooms, bathrooms and common areas wade to bring the hostel up to modern standards.
