'Judith and Tony make you feel extremely welcome and the accommodation offers excellent value in an ideal location. Sharing a hostel next door to a pub means you never get bored and certainly never get lonely. I would recommend this to other people working in the area at BAE or Sellafield and at these prices, it's a place that shouldn't be missed'
