Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    A charming Swiss chalet-like hostel full of character, warmth, and nice touches for guests. Tristan is a natural at hospitality, with an innate sense of guest need. Warm, cosy rooms, a log fire, comfy beds and armchairs, a well equipped kitchen, a place radiating backpacker hospitality at its best. Highly recommended. Will remember it well.

    A lovely place in a great location, so very handy to village, pools, walks and biking tacks. The garage was a wonderful bonus as we were able to keep bikes and associated equipment safely stored.

    2 bunk beds meaning there was space for 4 people. These bunk beds had a decent amount of space at the end for bags. Plenty of parking, each check in and out. Nice quiet location for a cheap but tastefully done holiday camp.

    A very reasonably priced budget hotel/hostel. Very warm, welcoming staff, clean kitchen and a roaring fire in the shared lounge area when it suddenly got cold.

    it was advertised as a lodge but it was a backpacker place so I was disappointed, although it was cheapish and the toilet was close to our room.
