Lovely hostel near Man v Mountain start line

Stayed here as I was taking part in Man vs Mountain and this hostel is literally 2-mins away from the start line. Great hostel with nice dorms, comfy beds, clean toilet/shower facilities, a bar and a cafe. The staff were super friendly and even started breakfast service early to accommodate us runners which was great! Highly recommend staying here :-)

Brilliant location for a race starting at Castle

Easy check in although I was really late. Was very close to the road and it was Saturday night so a little noisy but didn't matter too much. Would happily stay again.
