YHA Grinton Lodge - Hostel  

Perched on the southern slopes of Swaledale in Grinton, this hostel sits inside the Yorkshire Dales National Park. It’s about 1 km from the village centre, 0.7 miles from the Stef Ottevanger Sculptures and roughly 10 miles from historic Richmond — the Coast to Coast walk passes close by.

A former shooting lodge with exceptional valley views and a rugged, cozy vibe. Choose from 17 guestrooms or one of five new camping pods that sleep up to a family of four — perfect for family-friendly stays. Expect communal spaces like a living room and kitchen, plus direct access to walking and mountain-biking routes.

On-site bar and restaurant, communal kitchen, complimentary Wi‑Fi and free self parking. Garden, library, picnic and BBQ areas, playrooms for kids, an arcade/game room and guest laundry. Wake up to sweeping Swaledale views and head straight out for trails or rides.

Complimentary wireless internet throughout and a reception hall suitable for group meet-ups or events.

Restaurant and bar/lounge serve tasty meals and drinks after a day outdoors. English breakfasts are available daily from 7:30 AM to 9:00 AM for a fee, and the communal kitchen is handy for self-catering.
