YHA Edale Activity Centre

A great youth hostel, half an hour walk from the village of Edale, across the fields.
Lovely clean, warm rooms and friendly staff.
We hired a private room, which was ideal for our family.
A great games room is available and there are nice communal areas which are spotlessly clean.
Food and drinks are reasonably priced and the staff are very friendly.
There is plenty of free parking and lots of walks in the area.
Tip-take any provisions with you as the shop is a trek away and you may find it hard to park in the village.
peakdistrictwalks.net is a website we use for walks but the YH also has plenty of free ones.

Very convenient youth hostel for walkers and other local outdoor activities. Rooms are very basic as you'd expect from a hostel, and the main attraction is the beautiful rural setting. Useful to have access to a kitchen also. Be aware if arriving on foot or via public transport that it's about a 30 min unlit footpath walk from the village centre/train station so do bring a torch and appropriate footwear if arriving late. One point is that it would be useful if the WiFi can be improved as phone signal in the area is bad and the WiFi seems to only work in the main building, not the rooms. It is also relatively expensive to stay here for the standard of accomodation but does reflect the lack of other options in the immediate area!

Excellent hostel. Great location for walking. I got a very good price for the private room. The room itself was clean and comfortable and spacious. Staff all very friendly. Food service quick and great experience. I don’t usually like hostels but found this one to be very good.

Very friendly staff. Clean and comfortable room and pretty quiet for a busy hostel. Beers and coffee from reception were great, in fact, the coffee was awesome, and miles better than most hostels! We will return

Great place to stay! Very polite and friendly staff. The hostel is located in a beautiful scenery! We had breakfast there and it was more then enough and good. We would highly recommend!

Stayed here about 10 years ago though I have 1 queryto owner are your private room rates still very reasonable.lovely view main reason I come here.though the road to yha was something of mission to find due to laughable road signs and limited technology 10 years ago as edale something of a technology black spot valley .
Nice place though room about what would expect in a hostel type building.do you still offer a wide variety of activities and can you book once your their.

A really well set up hostel in a great location! Very friendly and helpful team. Clean, well-maintained facilities. Lovely setting in the trees. Definitely recommend!

Very clean, friendly staff, good food and reasonably priced. They even have a drying room for wet clothing.
