Ariundle Accommodation

The place is magical! I have never seen so many stars at once light pollution is minimal, and you can even hear stags from the nearby woods. A true heaven for hikers, simply something special. The people we met (I presume the owners) were very kind. Access to the kitchen is great. The room was basic, as expected, but the bed was very comfy to my liking. This place has massive potential with some investment, they could easily charge double for these rooms. I would definitely stay again.

Spent my weekend at the Ariundle Centre Bunkhouse in mid September. The place was busy enough, but not crowded. Met friendly people, enjoying a variety of activities. Made a new friend. Really appreciated the helfulness of the Ariundle Centre volunteers. After my first night, I discovered I had acquired a screw in my tyre. And I was assisted with good advice and the offer of a trolley jack, which made the tyre change quick and straightforward. That gesture allowed to save a lot of time! Also, I really appreciated the Ariundle people's hospitality and responsiveness. I will definitely stay here again in the future.

This is a very rundown property with limited amenities. The Yellow Bunkroom was tiny and the bathroom was very old. A neighboring dog barked throughout the night. The pictures were very obviously taken many years ago.

Great place in a beautiful setting.

While I understand this is an accommodation, not a hotel, there were several concerning issues during my stay. The cleanliness was far below acceptable standards—the room wasn’t just dirty, it was filthy, with trash left behind from previous guests. Additionally, there was no lock on the room door because a previous guest had taken it, leaving us to use a knife to get back in. The toilet was dirty, and contrary to what is advertised, there is no Wi-Fi in the rooms; it’s only available in the dining area, which felt misleading. The only positive aspect was the availability of a laundry machine. However, it seems they are either severely understaffed or possibly have no staff on-site. Be sure to bring your own towel, as the one provided was extremely dirty. Overall, I would not recommend staying here—it’s simply not worth it.

Staff were excellent, and very hospitable. The food at their restaurant/cafe was simply superb. The room was decent, pretty much as advertised. A couple of minor issues about the facilities were brought to the owners' attention, but otherwise, the stay was a very pleasant experience. Thank you!

The food was amazing, it was the best cottage pie ever. Kate is a delight!

Ariundle is one of a kind! Kate and Laura were incredible hosts and went well beyond the call of duty. One of our party left their passport when we left and Laura was so supportive and helpful. The room was excellent, older but clean and the beds are comfy, and the food at the tea room, wow!!!!!

Enjoyed staying here. Very quiet place in middle of the fields. Helpful staff. Fresh food. Lovely village!

Property is bit old and lacking maintenance.
