not " new " - its been open a while - but a definite alternative for a nenthead trip
sleeps 24 max in 3 bunk rooms
pros :
new
very good showers :)
closer to the nent mines [ hagg gill adit is built into the side of the bunkhouse :)]
tents / caravans / motorhomes [ with electric hook up and a foul water dump point ]
kit washing trough
cons :
no proper drying room - this is the most serious " flaw " for a mine explore trip
quite small lounge [ the conservatory is large - but its got plastic chairs ]
£18 / night bunkhouse [ tents are £9 ]

adjacent to the A689 [ alston > nenthead road ]
