The hostel is open all year round to groups and open to individuals and groups March – November.

Dorm beds and private rooms are available, as well as Shepherds' Huts and the hostel sleeps up to 57 guests including the traditional Shepherds’ Huts which are hand crafted locally. The four Shepherds’ Huts sleep two people in each.

Originally built in 1943 for the land army girls, its now modern facilities include a large dining/common room with Wi-Fi and tables and chairs, and a reasonably priced restaurant using local produce where available. There is also a good-sized drying room which is perfect for hanging wet clothes and boots. There is free onsite car parking, secure cycle storage and all areas are fully accessible throughout. 

There are great self-catering facilities if you want to cook for yourself including new cookers and a new fridge, fitted units and stainless steel preparation surfaces. There is plenty of crockery, glassware, saucepans and cutlery. There are also breakfast options available at the hostel.

Painstakingly reproduced by local craftsmen, these mobile shelters replicate those once wheeled into the Cheviot Hills to allow shepherds to tend their flocks. These traditional hand crafted Northumbrian huts sleep two or three people in bunk beds complete with warm duvets. They also have electric heating and lighting and are fully insulated from the elements.

This hostel is occasionally made available for hire on an exclusive basis. This means that you can have the place to yourself and choose how many of your friends, family, club mates, etc., join you. We allocate availability for exclusive use in blocks, typically up to 90 days in the future. If you are looking for space to stay with us on a normal shared basis, and can’t see any availability three months or more into the future, then this hostel may be being held for Exclusive Hire. You can check availability for Exclusive Hire on our dedicated website.
