The best way to find availability is to use the calendar on each hostel page.

When you choose to stay with YHA you are supporting one of the nation’s leading youth charities. Our hostels welcome people of all ages, and one of the unique features of YHA is how our hostels can accommodate school and youth groups, adult groups, families and individual travellers. 

In 2020, YHA appointed an independent safeguarding auditor to review YHA admissions arrangements. YHA asked what a leading youth charity could do to further improve its arrangements to provide a safe environment for all of our guests and, in particular, young people. The recommendation was to implement a request for photographic ID to those that wished to use our services. As a result we have implemented these recommendations and updated our admissions policy and booking terms & conditions.

When staying with YHA, all guests over the age of 18 need to provide photographic ID for dorms, private rooms and Camping & Cabins bookings. Only the lead booker for Exclusive Hire needs to provide photographic ID.

Thank you for your support in making YHA an even safer place.

How can we help with your membership?

There are two different membership options, depending on how you want to pay (both provide the same great benefits).

You can choose to pay for your YHA membership annually by rolling direct debit, or a year at a time via debit/credit card or PayPal.

Direct Debit is the easiest way to pay for your YHA membership each year, helping us put more of your membership fee towards our amazing charitable cause. This option is £20 per year.

Your annual membership fee will be taken from your chosen account on or around the 1st of the month after your original purchase. We'll remind you before the payment is taken and you'll get a new membership card in the post each year.

Members are such an important and valued part of our movement, strengthening our voice and helping to shape the charity’s direction of travel. Join today and together we’ll continue opening up a world of possibilities for young people. You'll also get 10% off every stay (plus an additional 5% if at least one guest is under 26), discounts on a range of big outdoor brands and more.
