Old Mill Hostel

Westport is a very exciting place to be, especially during busy seasons. Volunteers are able to see this up close as the hostel is located in the heart of the town centre. Volunteers have their own separate accommodation (including bathroom) from the hostel so it's great to have your own space. You will volunteer for 5 days per week, roughly 4/5 hours depending on the day. This is often much less as all morning tasks can be completed faster depending on the number of checkouts. You will also have 2 days off where you are free to wander about Westport and its surroundings - this is also possible on the days when you are working.

We like for volunteers to feel like part of the team from the very beginning. Living in a hostel is a dynamic environment and there is always something new and interesting to discover. We aim for our volunteers to enjoy their time in Westport as much as possible for however long they stay with us. As it is a family-run hostel, there are only a few members of staff and this allows volunteers to develop close and interpersonal links with us all.

My time at the Old Mill Hostel was amazing! Niamh is a lovely host — super funny, kind and always up for a chat. The tasks were easy to manage and since you never do them alone, they’re done quickly. Which leaves plenty of time to explore beautiful Westport and the surrounding area. The best part was definitely the people, especially the other volunteers. We made a lot of funny and nice memories together and they quickly became like family to me. As this was my first volunteering experience, I couldn’t have asked for a better place or host. Thank you!

I had an amazing time at The Old Mill Hostel. The hostel was nice and Westport is beautiful. Niamh and all the other volunteers are lovely and it felt like a home. The shared volunteers rooms were cozy and the work was pretty easy and scheduled. I would definitely recommend volunteering here.

I had a lovely stay at the Old Mill Hostel. Niamh is a great host and communication was very easy. The hours of work and tasks are just as agreed on- we actually always finished early. I had a really nice team and we worked together well. Also you will meet lots of different international travellers!
The rooms are small but cozy. Only thing I disliked was the shower- which can be quite the challenge..
Other than that you must know that Westport is a really (nice but) small town. But there are other beautiful places around! If you can- come by car, the buses only arrive a few times a day.
