Four youth hostels in the Penzance and Land’s End area. Lelant Downs was the first...

Derwent Hall, built in 1672, a former residence of the Dukes of Norfolk, was also a youth hostel before it disappeared under water.

"in 1932 facilities were ‘fairly basic’ ... no electricity and we had our own private water supply."

How about B for Boggle Hole, because I love that name, and the place, and the walk along the coast to Robin Hood's Bay.

Might as well start with Acomb 1933-2006, because I love the photos, its link with the Trevelayns and that sign! Acomb Youth Hostel 1933-2006
