Kirkby Stephen Hostel, hotel in Kirkby Stephen

With a central location 4 minutes’ drive from the train station, Kirkby Stephen Hostel lies between Cumbria’s Lake District and the Yorkshire Dales.

Booking a room in a dorm is always a risk, but I was fortunate to be the only one in the room so could make myself very much at home. It's a beautiful unique place with lots of character. The ensuite shower room was a big surprise - modern, clean and far better than you can sometimes get in a regular B&B! I only wish I could have stayed a bit longer to make the most of the facilities and the local area. It would also be fun to come in a group. I did not meet Denise but all the communication both online and on arrival (plus instructions in the hostel) was easy to follow and I felt safe as a solo female traveller.

The Fat Lamb Country Inn and Nature Reserve, hotel in Kirkby Stephen

Idyllic spot. The pub is also a wonderful mini motor museum so there's lots to see and look at. Fabulous walking on the doorstep. A friendly welcome and nice evening meal. Proper pub grub. Our room was a little tired and dated but spotlessly clean. Thank you 😊

    Walks and cycle rides in every direction (roads not too frightening); both sides of Mallerstang worth walking as well as the valley (Garsdale rail station at far end); near Pennine Bridleway, on C2C I think; historic with the viaducts, Settle and Carlisle Railway

    Didn't really stay long enough to explore Kirkby Stephen,...

    Didn't really stay long enough to explore Kirkby Stephen, just two days to do two hill walks, but it seems to have a lot of potential for me to return and explore its history etc. Disappointed that information at bus stop was poor - one timetable was too high to see, and the route of another service wasn't obvious to the visitor. Also, some public footpaths in the surrounding countryside were very difficult to follow because of poor signage - some is very old and confusing.

    This is an excellent farmstay, beautiful location, close to local village and pubs. The views are idyllic. The room and facilities were exceptional, we stay in alot of b&bs and hotels, and would highly recommend this farmstay. The breakfast was varied, lots of cereals, fruit, juices and the full English breakfast was exceptional - proper high quality bacon and sausages - thank you very much. Angela and her team looked after us very well. Very warm and welcoming after a long drive.

    Nice room (with a fan) and view over market sq. The lady who checked us in I think her name was Jules deserves a pay rise…she has all the customer service skills required to encourage return visit. The young lady at breakfast was also nice.I would recommend the Pennine hotel and would rebook.

    I loved Kirkby Stephen Hostel for the drying room. It was such a welcomed facility on a very wet weekend. Denise is a lovely host, very welcoming. The kitchen and communal room were well equipped and in such a lovely setting of the old church.
