One of the more remote hostels in Lakeland which is passed on the late Alfred Wainwright’s Coast to Coast route. The nearest public access point by car is the Bowness Knott Car Park which is two and a half miles away. It is one of two youth hostels in the Ennerdale valley. The Black Sail Hut, further up the valley, is even more remote.
