With regret due to Covid-19, Dolgoch and Ty'nCornel Hostels will continue to be closed throughout July, August and September. As soon as reopening plans are decided, this message will be updated.

Elenydd Wilderness Hostels - Independent Hostels in Mid Wales, UK

These former Y.H.A. Youth Hostels are both in a remote upland region of Mid Wales, where the cry of the red kite is more common than the sound of the car.
This is a land of rocky outcrops, forestry and meandering rivers; the Tywi being the best known, where you will experience a solitude almost impossible to find elsewhere in Wales, England or the UK.
The hostels/bunkhouses are perfect for individuals, couples, family breaks and groups.
You can also camp under our incredibly dark skies. Duke of Edinburgh's Award participants are offered concessionary camping rate

Dolgoch has 20 beds in 3 rooms sleeping 4, 6 and 10, Ty’n Cornel sleeps 16 in two rooms of 8.
Both hostels have wood burning stoves for cosy, fireside evenings.
Around the hostels in the Cambrian Mountains and across North and South Wales there is a wealth of things to do - walking and hiking on remote paths, cycling on quiet roads and forest tracks, star gazing in amazingly dark skies, exploring local places of interest or just enjoying a peaceful, tech free individual, group or family break.
We’re proud to have 5 star Tripadvisor ratings for both hostels.
