History
YHA Streatley-on-Thames has the very proud history of being a youth hostel before youth hostels were invented! In the early 20th century the family who owned Hill House had links with a very poor diocese in south London and invited children who lived there to spend a holiday at their big house. In 1935 the family gave the house to the fledgling Youth Hostel Association because they supported YHA's charitable aims.
