Equipment checklist

We provide ...

• ... most standard cutlery and crockery items, washing-up liquid and tea towels.
• ... each bunk has a waterproof mattress.
• ... a BT payphone - you probably won't be able to get a mobile signal in the valley bottom.
• ... satellite broadband (in the classroom) - see Warden for access details.

Each of you will need ...

• ... all your own food and drinks.
• ... sleeping bag (or sheet and duvet), pillowcase, toiletries, torch (advised).
• ... waterproofs and stout footwear if you're going out.
• ... some 20p, 50p or £1 coins if you wish to use the payphone.

And please remember ...

• ... bring everything you need - the nearest shops are 10 miles (16 km) away in Cleator Moor, and the nearest pubs are 5 miles (8 km) in Ennerdale Bridge.
• ... we don't have much power for hair dryers, straighteners, etc., but we do have limited 230v AC power to charge laptops and phones.
• ... to take your tins, bottles, plastics, away with you, as our local council don't offer recycling collections in this remote area!
• ... we are not permitted to drive beyond the turning area by the Youth Hostel, or to park on the forest tracks.
• ... we do not encourage extra driving on the forest track, and most roads in the area are narrow and winding.
