"Fantastic, characterful hostel with great facilities and a lovely vibe"

10.0

Self contained family room was fantastic with a great shower. The building is old and characterful and has been decorated appropriately with loads of facilities. Especially like the hammocks in the garden. Comms was excellent too with lots of info before we arrived. Yes, it is a hostel but probably the best hostel we've ever stayed in!

Loved the backpacker vibe, the old house was great and the atmosphere was friendly and fun. Nice little town and area around were easy walk away.
