Eden Lodge Falmouth Cornwall

The Hostel – powered by Snoozebox

YHA Eden Project accommodates up to 234 guests in 60 modern en-suite bedrooms made from shipping containers, in keeping with the Eden spirit of sustainable living and finding new uses for everyday items. These comfortable rooms are equipped with all the conveniences you expect from YHA and much more, including TVs in each room and full air conditioning, making them a fantastic base for your holiday in Cornwall. With their clever use of space and high specification bathrooms, the rooms are perfect for families and individual travellers. The hostel is open every day of the year, but the Eden Project is closed on Christmas day.

Please refer to our 'How to get here' section for how to access the hostel after Eden Project opening hours.

Wild Camping

Please note that camping is sold per person and not per pitch and so, during the booking process, you will need to select the number of people that you wish to camp.

The campsite is situated within the magical grounds of the Eden Project, just a short walk away from the Eden Project entrance gates and a couple of hundred metres away from the main YHA Snoozebox hostel. It provides camping for approximately 80 people onsite. You can either bring your own tents or hire a stylish festival-inspired bell tent. Check in at our main reception before setting up your tent - the camping field is on a slight slope, just a few minutes away from the Snoozeboxes and up a country lane and two small sets of steps.

There is a separate heated shower and toilet block for exclusive use by people camping and we have a fine selection of teas, coffees and local and international beers and wines. A continental breakfast is available in the morning. Other food and drink is available from within the Eden grounds during standard opening hours.

Vehicles are not permitted on the camping field but can use the drop-off point at the end of the field. Please note we do not provide electric hook-up or hard standing pitches. Motor homes and camper vans are not permitted - we can only accommodate tents for access reasons. Guests are not permitted to stay in their vehicles overnight.

Bell Tents

Get the festival-inspired glamping experience with a beautiful bell tent! These sophisticated and spacious tipi-like tents are fitted out with a double futon bed and three single futon beds plus all bedding is included - there's enough room for 4-5 people to chill out in! There are six bell tents at YHA Eden Project - four standard and two premium. Premium bell tents sleep four people and have the addition of a woodburner to keep you cosy. You'll feel right at home in the Eden Project with their eco-friendly solar lighting and comfy bean bags. Bell Tents are available to stay in from Easter until the end of September.

The walk to the bell tents can be quite strenuous but is more than worthwhile. People with mobility issues may need to bear this in mind.
