Jim the warden welcomed us into the cosy main room with a roaring fire after we'd been out in the rain for hours! The bunkhouse is in a beautiful, very remote, location. The accommodation is wonderfully basic - no mains electricity, signal or wifi! But the rooms were clean and comfortable and the kitchen had everything we needed.

Nothing!

The Hostel is totally off grid. No Electricity, phone signal or internet. Lots of indoor relaxing space with a very effective wood fire. (We stayed when the temperatures were just above freezing). There is a rack to dry wet clothes above the wood burner. Bedrooms have no lights so bring a good torch. Outside has lots of seating and in summer would be a great space to sit out in. Bedrooms were clean, laundry was freshly laundered. I'm 190 cm and found my bunk was a little short, but bearable, and the duvet was large and warm.

Location...remote. friendliness of staff.

Midges.

Lovely peaceful place, well kept and clean. Surrounded by beautiful scenery, amazing, plenty to see and do. Plenty of soap in toilets and showers and kitchen. Nice kitchen with plenty of kitchen wears to use, and a good seating area inside with games and books and a seating area outside. There was a useful sink in our room too. The wardens were very kind and helpful, they welcomed us and gave us good advice about where to visit. Our children were all excited about staying in a hostel, even with no wifi and having to use torches at night. The stars at night were spectacular. We would recommend this place.

The only inconvenient part of our stay was having no wifi or signal, but we still enjoyed ourselves anyway.

Friendly staff, stunning countryside!
