Brilliant Hostel experience. Thank you!

Liked: Self catering facilities, the drying room, the lounge, the staff, meeting people. Spacious bedroom and relaxed welcoming atmosphere. The grounds were great for the kids to play games in.
Disliked: Some of the showers needed more oomph. Slightly weird toileting arrangements - one sink to three toilets, three sinks to one toilet - but really not a big deal.
