I genuinely liked everything about the stay. William gave me an incredibly warm welcome, and all the important information had already been sent by email beforehand.
He even took the time to write down some local highlights and tips for the area, which I really appreciated.
The bed was incredibly comfortable, and the room was a great size.
As a solo traveler, I felt very safe throughout my stay. The doors were secured with individual codes, and I could conveniently park my car right behind the house.

It’s a great location and the best hostel I’ve stayed in for a while. The room was pretty good and the breakfast provided and the kitchen facilities were great. The staff were amazing as always and very accommodating and kind.
Great location, lovely and clean, beds were comfy, the check in staff were very welcoming, would highly recommend this hostel. I travelled on my own and felt very safe
Beautiful remote quiet location and clean modern facilities. Best hostel I’ve ever stayed at and fabulous value for money. Only downside was that noise could be heard so easily from adjoining rooms 🤭 plus the bunk bed mattresses, whilst fine for kids, had hard springs for a teenager but the staff kindly provided a mattress from a fold out bed as a topper. Whilst overall the staff weren’t very friendly, they were extremely helpful and accommodating.
Great location, very friendly and helpful staff, clean facilities and comfortable rooms. One of the best hostels I’ve ever stayed in.
The best value for money - hostel I have been in Ireland : really cheap, overall god quality of facilities, quick check-in : check-out and perfect location ! Highly recommended for small budget travellers !
