The hostel is a magical place. One I never imagined I'd visit. It's a small but very picturesque town, with beautiful views and charming Scottish buildings. A gem in the Highlands. Very close to Edinburgh, which you can visit on your days off, and they also allow you to stay in other hostels in the same chain. I loved the flexibility, the beautiful work environment, and I made friends. The owners, Jo and Richard, are very friendly and always willing to make sure you have a good volunteer experience. I loved meeting them and stayed at their beautiful hostel I will miss you very much

This was my second experience as a volunteer in this hostel chain and it was really enjoyable. The whole space is cozy, comfortable and very well organized, making the stay pleasant and peaceful. I had the opportunity to meet incredible people and share unforgettable moments. I can't forget to thank Jojo, Richard, Dereck and Ruthie — each of them made this experience even more special in their own way. A special thanks to Jojo, who is always kind and often surprises everyone with delicious dinners. I am very grateful for everything and I highly recommend this experience to everyone.

My experience has been wonderful from the day I joined until the day I leave. The managers are excellent people and help you in everything, the work is not very heavy, they are simple tasks. The place and the location is excellent, I hope to come back one day because I really go back to Spain very happy and with an improvement in my English which is why I came. I can only thank all the people who made it possible Derrick, Ruthie, Richard thank you, thank you very much from the bottom of my heart. It is an experience I will never forget ❤️

The hostel was a home away from home. I had never stayed in a hostel before, but from the moment I arrived, Ruthie and Derek helped me feel at home. The work is simple and divided into shifts and teams. I had cleaning, breakfast shift and the night shift. So it's super organized! And you have plenty of time to explore the town and nature. It is a paradise for nature lovers and hikers and is only a few bus rides from Edinburgh and Inverness and Glasgow. I met so many amazing people also and will never forget this experience.
