Loch Ness Backpackers Lodge
The Loch Ness region is spectacular - lovers of the great outdoors will have a field day with us in Drumnadrochit. There are dozens of great places to go and explore on foot from our doorstep.
The hostel is a lovely relaxed place to be, and although we all work hard we really enjoy spending time together and with our guests. The more fun we have, the more fun they have!
We (Nikki and Patrick) took over the hostel in August 2016. Patrick has worked in hostels for years and is loving finally owning his own. We have two young kids, Joni and Finn, who are always around somewhere causing havoc and distracting us all, volunteers included! We also have a dog who is equally distracting but much loved by volunteers and guests. The volunteers we've had so far have been the life blood of the hostel, setting the tone and keeping things running smoothly. We encourage all volunteers to really enjoy their time with us by going off and exploring the Highlands, and we do what we can to enable that. Back at the hostel, we organise regular incentive schemes and fun parties to keep the team motivated and involved.

I have no words to describe what this summer here has meant to me. Nikki and Patrick are wonderful, always supportive and willing to help. The hostel is so well organized that working hours just fly by. I was lucky to share this experience with amazing volunteers who are now friends. The village is surrounded by beautiful trails, the people are lovely, and Inverness is very close, with plenty of places to explore on days off. Without a doubt, this has been one of the best experiences of my life. Thank you so much for the opportunity—I hope to see you again soon! 💜🏴✨

I absolutely loved my time at Loch Ness Backpackers Lodge. Nikki and Patrick are amazing, I immediately felt at home and a part of the team. Hours and tasks are very manageable and there's always someone around to ask questions if you need help. The lodge itself is very cozy and cleaning is taken very seriously. The location is great and the views are amazing. It's close enough to Inverness for a nice getaway on days off and the locals are very nice.

I really enjoyed my time in Loch Ness at the Backpackers Lodge, where Nikki, Patrick, their two kids, and cute dog made the hostel feel very home-like. The other volunteers were all really lovely, nice people, and I couldn’t have hoped for a better volunteer opportunity! The hours were all as agreed upon, the work straightforward, and you received weekly grocery money, which was appreciated. My favorite thing to do was go blackberry picking in my free time so I could bake in the staff kitchen! I especially enjoyed my trip to Inverness, the group pizza night, and hiking in Glen Affric.

Nikki and Patrick were extremely welcoming and gracious hosts during my stay in Drum, with the work tasks being very clear and reasonable, the work hours/shifts being respected and the work schedule flexible and planned out far in advance. Places to eat and buy some groceries are within walking distance, while the closest city with cheaper options is a 25 minute drive away. Drum is a great spot for people looking for a quiet escape from city life, Loch Ness and a base for great hikes, would recommend :)
