Overview

Our westernmost hostel, YHA Land's End is perfect for a value family break in deepest Cornwall. Tucked away, but with fine views to the sea, the hostel is a short walk from beaches and the Cornish countryside, so is equally good for surfing breaks, birdwatching and walking holidays.

Whether you want to learn about the historical mining locations made famous in Poldark or just relax on a sublime beach, we're a one-stop location for paradise and a perfect spot from which to explore a beautiful part of the UK.

This hostel is available on an Exclusive Hire basis only, so you'll get the entire place to yourself.
