Puttenham Barn Bunkhouse

Positiv Our stay was delightful. The accommodation was a hostel with basic format but having well maintained facilities for showering and cooking, a helpful warden, a respectful atmosphere between guests and some touches of delightful forethought. This was my 8 year old daughter's first experience of sleeping in a hostel so the extra blanket and hot water bottle (with jacket) available were lovely for her. The facility has obviously been kept with care by a team keen to promote the esthetics of access to nature particulalry through walking or cycling by providing a peaceful, practical rest place.

Negativ No dislikes.

Positiv Extremely good bunkhouse with all the amenities you could ever need. I especially liked the kitchen. Very good value for money. The people that run it really care about camping and it shows, as they've thought about everything.

Positiv Great bunkhouse in a listed barn. Simple, clean, and a nice pub 2 minutes down the road. When I visited the volunteers running the place we lovely, very welcoming. I'd certainly visit again.

Positiv Lovely place, super-friendly wardens - all volunteers - who did their best to ensure my stay was as comfortable as possible. Lots of nice touches such as tea/coffee/condiments if you have forgotten anything and a micro shop for essentials like porridge and toothpaste. There's a small kitchen and dining area next to the barn. (There are no shops nearby.)

Lots of games and local info etc with a very nice pub next door for meals and to meet the locals. Everything is very eco-centric so you get a discount if you arrive by bike of £3 a night! Even without this, you likely won't find anywhere cheaper in this part of the world.

You will be sharing the space with others if there are other people there but I was the only one when I stayed.

Negativ It is quite chilly in the barn but if you ask, you can have extra blankets and hire a sleeping bag. The shower is right next to the toilet so the floor does get a bit wet.

Also you can hear noise from A31 if wind in the wrong direction.
