Basic hostel accommodation with the one toilet, shower and small kitchen shared with any motor homes and campers. A comfy bed but bring your own bed linen or sleeping bag. Great scenery surrounding the hostel and ample parking. I was Munro bagging and needed a base camp which this facility provided 👍

Not ideal when travelling light

I was doing the NC500 as a solo traveller and stayed here as the last stop. The rooms themselves were clean, but keep in mind that there are no towels or quilt in the room. As someone who was travelling light, this meant using my t shirt as a makeshift quilt. I would’ve actually got some sleep with this setup, if it wasn’t for another guest snoring next door through the night. Of course, this isn’t the bunkhouse’s fault, but just note that the walls are very thin, and earplugs do help a bit but still won’t keep all the noise out. I was pleased to have the kitchen, and as I said the room was clean, but I stayed at 5 places on my trip and this was comfortably the worst value for money.

**Key point is only a pillow and pillowcase are provided** I stayed for one night in the Bunkhouse. Look it is what it is. A cheap place to lay your head. Luckily I saw the reviews and brought a sleeping bag and towel. The place was sweltering when I arrived as it had been a really warm week. No windows were open due to midgies and firm instruction not to have windows or doors open for this reason (although staff could have had them open during the day for ventilation I think). Everything was superficially clean but there was staining on doors, surfaces and floors. It was fine but just takes an entail of breath to say 'its fine'. The walls are paper thin and the floor is sprung as i think the structure itself is more like a large portacabin type structure. There was a neanderthal in the room next to me and I could hear every fart, burp, crisp crunch and snore he made. Every step taken also reverberated through the whole floor. The positives: the price of course. But also the beautiful lodge next to the bunkhouse (the bunkhouse is part of the same property which is not quite clear). I got scrubbed up and went in there for my dinner, a coffee and some drinks. Divine. Staff were super and the dining room/drawing room areas are a real treat. It was lovely to have access there just to sit and enjoy the summer evening with a beautiful breeze coming in the grand windows.

Varning, Äk inte hit

Inga lakan/sÀngklÀder, inte ens en vÀrmande filt. Ingen info vid bokning om att detta inte fanns. Ingen vÀrme pÄ rummet/huset, 15-16 grader pÄ natten. Ingen direkt hygien, en toalett med dusch pÄ samma toalett pÄ 6 boende, detta tar tid pÄ morgonen. Jag har bott i bÀttre strÄhytter pÄ stranden i Indien/Egypten. Detta sÀmsta stÀllet nÄgonsin under 40 Ärs resande. Rekommenderar att ni tar bort det,

Minimalistic

Hiket/Walker place. Should just offer bedding at booking? Who carries bath towel? Unusual spot, unspoken service, solitude.

happy Hikers' & Bikers' & Kayaker's Wee Hoose

A friendly welcome & a Cosy Clean Comfy Bunkhouse to arrive & as a base for adventuring around Loch Maree & Ben Eighe area. I was glad to find this simple accommodation - (no bunks, nice single rooms) - as so much has been 'upgraded' to standards & prices beyond the needs or budget of this rambler. With about 6 rooms, it's conducive to social friendliness & sharing travel tips. In Autumn & Winter, a covered outdoor or indoor drying area for damp kit would be a real plus But no complaints. Lovely Hotel next door to visit for a bit of pukka country life vibe.
