Tintagel Castle
Set high on a craggy peninsular overlooking a dramatic stretch of Cornish coast, Tintagel Castle offers much more than regular English Heritage ruins.
Just 50m from the sea, and offering some of the best coastal views of any YHA hostel, YHA Treyarnon Bay is a lively, mid-sized hostel on the north Cornwall coast. The hostel has something for every hour of the day for guests of all ages, from gig nights to surf lessons, as well as the excellent Trey Bay cafe.
Treyarnon Bay has a popular, family friendly beach, a great spot for bodyboarding and surfing, and the ever-popular seaside town of Padstow is just 4 miles away.
Dorms are not currently available.
Dorm rooms have multiple beds and are shared with other people who may not be travelling together. They are usually more affordable than private rooms as you'll be booking a bed rather than the whole room.
A typical shared dorm room includes bunk beds, a reading light and a storage cupboard for each guest.
Children aged between 12 and 15 can stay in dorm rooms as long as an adult of the same gender accompanies them.
Shared shower and toilet facilities are located near to the room. None of our dorm rooms have en-suite facilities.
Want some privacy? With a private room, you'll be booking the whole room for your stay.
Private rooms typically include a storage cupboard and reading light for each bed, plus a wash hand basin.
Shared shower and toilet facilities are located near to the room.
For added privacy, relax with your family, friends or by yourself in a private en-suite room.
Private en-suite rooms typically include a storage cupboard and reading light for each bed, plus shower and toilet facilities solely for the people in your room.
Like camping but with a few added extras! Our Landpods sleep up to 4 people, on two double mattresses and a single futon mattress, which doubles up as the seating area. All bedding is included, plus duvets and LED lighting.
Landpods don't have heating, so are more suited to the those who like a traditional camping experience. Even in the colder months, it’s nothing a couple of warm, cosy blankets can’t fix! There is a bench and BBQ firepit outside, so make the most of the great outdoors and dine al fresco.
Our spacious bell tents are fully kitted out with a double bed and three single futons and can sleep up to 5 people with all bedding included.

The hostel boasts spacious grounds, just 50 metres from the sea, with beautiful views across the bay and rugged cliff tops.
Our team here changes in number through the year but there is always an amazing force behind the work they do. Our team have an amazing knowledge of walks, beaches, surf, and other local know-how to help you find your way on your adventure.
Manager recommends: Closer to home take a short amble over to Constantine Bay at low tide for a mini-beast hunt or down to Treyarnon Bay for some fun bodyboarding and a dip in the tide pool. If you fancied something a little further afield, get your boots and start walking! We are super lucky to be located on the South West Coast path. You can travel north to Padstow or head over the other side of the Bay towards Newquay. You certainly will not be disappointed with the view!
