We only stayed for one night in the hostel as we were breaking our journey south. Neil made us very welcome and our twin room was a good size with comfortable bunk beds. The kitchen and living space was well equipped and there were lots of labels and instructions on how to use anything and everything we needed to use.... More

We stayed at the hostel two nights after completing a 4 day off-road cycle tour adventure. It was the perfect place to recover, and I wish we could've stayed longer! Peter was very welcoming and friendly, and was more than happy to advise on mountain biking in the area. The room was just brilliant- you don't expect to be able... More

We had cycled over the highest point on the National Cycle Network that morning in the most miserable of weather. Cold winds and torrential rain had followed us from Pitlochry and by lunchtime we were cold and drookit. Our aim was basically to get to our digs in Newtonmore quickly, before hypothermia set in. We made really good time. However... More

Pete & Kathryn are very welcoming. The hostel has an excellent drying room and is well kitted out. There are plenty of showers/toilets. So although these are not en-suite, we never had to queue. We enjoyed sharing our days experiences with other hostellers. A real find which we would recommend to others. Close to lots of outdoor stuff, great walks,... More

As a couple with 3 young children, we were concerned about both a Highland ski trip and hostelling, but we need not have worried! Pete & Kathryn are very hospitable and very keen to help. They ensure the hostel is always clean and warm with great cooking, washing and drying (a separate room to dry salopettes and boots overnight was... More

This was a last minute booking and Kathryn was very accommodating. It is a small hostel with a preference towards the use of private rooms. The beds are extremely comfortable and the whole hostel is very clean. The kitchen is well equiped. The comfy lounge has a wood burning stove and is surrounded by comfy chairs. The owners are very...

After reading all the good reviews I decided to book a room at the hostel. When trying to enquire and book a place the person speaking to me was quite off hand about the dates and prices. When I asked was it ok to keep a dog in the car overnight the person became very aggravated saying ‘no no we... More

We are sorry you felt that we did not deal with your enquiry very well. Our hostel is small, we employ no extra staff and at times 'reception' becomes a bit hectic. Our prices and the fact that we do not take dogs is on our website on the 'News' page and on the 'Frequently Asked Questions' page. You will... More
