We can sleep up to 20 people in bunk beds spread over 6 bedrooms. We offer private bedrooms suitable for individuals, couples and small groups, or exclusive use for larger groups.  We are dog friendly by arrangement.  

The bunkhouse is situated alongside the Beacons Way long-distance footpath and we are across the road from the New Inn & Beacons Backpackers, popular with both locals and visitors, and well known for its excellent real ales, friendly atmosphere and great food.

We are open all year round and hope to see you soon!
