The Experience
Hi! We are a small hostel in the Scottish highlands, we are needing a volunteer to help us with general household duties. Making beds, hoovering, toilets/showers, gardening etc. Cleaning starts at 10:30 am until 14:30 pm so you still have your day to explore. 24hrs work a week, 6 days a week for 4 hrs a day. If you think you'd be a great fit for the team let us know!

This was my first volunteering experience and it was truly positive. the hostel and its surroundings are surrounded by nature, offering peace, tranquility, and countless trekking routes with beautiful landscapes. The hostel is cozy and welcoming; I felt very comfortable during my stay. Tasks are simple, and the work schedule is well organized, giving plenty of time to explore. David is friendly and attentive, making sure you feel at ease. I highly recommend it for anyone seeking a rewarding volunteering experience in nature.

The hostel is a perfectly located hiker's paradise right at the heart of the West Highlands. As a volunteer, you'll have plenty of time to explore all the easily reachable attractions and hiking trails in the area. The hostel itself is very cosy with a beautiful lounge and stunning outside views, while the outdoor firepit offers a great spot for both guests and volunteers to gather in the evenings. I felt welcome right from the start and thoroughly enjoyed my experience. Thanks again to everyone who made my time here so special. Highly recommended!

I stayed for a month. And I enjoyed every single day. My stay was wonderful, the managers are awesome. There was something at anytime, I really liked the hostel; it's so pretty and the Hostel is beautiful as well. I'd totally recommend to volunteer here and see it for yourself!

I had a great time volunteering in the hostel. The hostel is in a great location with gorgeous views. The work is pretty simple, and when it's all done, you have plenty of time to explore the local area (including Ben Nevis, if you prefer). You will meet people all over the world - both volunteers and guests :) This was my first Worldpackers experience, which came with some unforeseen challenges I had to deal with. The team there were very understanding and supportive. So if you're a first-time volunteer I also recommend this experience.
