Nikki and Patrick were awesome, sociable, supportive and really interesting hosts. The tasks were easy and well organised with room for flexibility. Even though I was mostly in charge of cleaning because of my short stay, I got to greet and meet a lot of great guests at the hostel who were backpacking across the Highlands. The hostel itself was always super clean and I never felt uncomfortable at my job. The staff accommodation was very comfortable and clean (credit due to my other colleagues) and the kitchen was extremely well equipped! Awesome!

It was an incredibly rewarding experience. If you're seeking a deep connection with nature, this is the perfect place. There's a wealth of hiking trails and breathtaking spots to explore. Plus, you can forge a community with fellow volunteers, which is truly enriching. The hostel is charming, and Nikki & Patrick are wonderful hosts

I couldn't have had a better first Worldpackers experience than this one! Nikki & Patrick are two of the kindest and most welcoming people I've ever met. They always make sure that you have everything you need and made me feel very safe (especially as a 19-year-old traveling solo for the first time). Work is manageable, tasks aren't complicated and hours are flexible & always respected. During my days off, I had loads of time to go on hikes, explore the area by bus & dip in the river/the hostel. Bonded closely with the other volunteers which made Scotland my second home and I can't wait to return!

I had the best time here! Nikki & Patrick are as good as it gets. I've never met people who care about their staff as much as they do. The work was manageable, clearly communicated, and as promised. Spent most of my free time in nature as there's not much else in the village, but this was a plus! I had a great experience that was made even better by the other volunteers. So much love for the people and my time in Scotland.

I'm leaving the place feeling very grateful for the experience. Patrick and Nikki are amazingly kind people, and as a 19 year old traveling solo for the first time, I've always felt extremely safe and comfortable at the hostel. The place is beautiful and I would recommend it to anyone in need of peace of mind and beautiful surroundings. I can't wait to come back someday

Wonderful experience. Felt welcomed into the hostel right away. Had an amazing time with the other volunteers, bonded quickly and closely! The work schedule is easy to move hours around to explore different parts of Scotland, very flexible! Variety in shifts - you will learn lots about working in hostel; checkins, cleaning, reception, bar, laundry. Well rounded tasks. Had a very positive experience and would recommend!

Minha experiência no hostel foi incrível! Nikki e Patrick são pessoas do bem e foram muito acolhedores desde a minha chegada na vila. O lugar é muito bonito e agradável. Tem muitas trilhas a serem exploradas nas redondezas, então é uma excelente oportunidade para quem quer passar um tempo mais perto da natureza. O trabalho foi tranquilo e sempre tivemos ajuda quando necessário. Nikki foi muito flexível quanto aos horários quando precisei de mais tempo livre para viajar. Realmente me sentia em casa, com minha família. Vou levar cada momento dessa experiência no meu coração para sempre.

My time here in the hostel was absolutely wonderful! Patrick and Nikki are so kind and are very helpful & involved with the hostel. The work is all very manageable and the hours are always respected. The hostel itself is super cozy, and Drum is stunning! There's lots of hiking to do and just being surrounded by nature was such a calming experience. The other volunteers were also amazing and made my time even better. I would definitely recommend this experience! I'm sad to be leaving and will miss it but am excited to come back for a visit.

My partner and I spent 2 months at Lochness the hostel and would recommend it to anyone. The hostel was cozy and comfortable, the team friendly and sociable and the work was enjoyable. We met lots of people coming through the hostel, were able to do lots of great hikes and visit Inverness and Isle of Skye. We were so happy to be a part of the hostel family. Thanks again Nikki and Patrick!!!
