Berwick Backpackers

Berwick Backpackers has received fantastic reviews from some of the top backpacking guidebooks. This includes: Lonely Planet - This excellent hostel is basically a series of rooms in the out buildings of a Grade 2 listed Georgian home around a central court yard, has one large comfortable dorm a single/twin and two doubles all en suite. It also has net access. Highly recommended.

Also: The Rough Guide - Not so much a backpackers (though there is a six bed dorm, beds £14.95) as a self styled superior budget bed and breakfast. The rambling place (Part was once a shoe factory) has simple but smartly decorated en suite rooms available as single/twin/double and triple, one with a gallery, another with a private kitchen, all very tastefully done. There's a fully equipped Kitchen/Lounge plus Internet access. Prices include a self-service continental breakfast.
