Working at the hostel is a truly authentic rural Irish experience. For this reason I'd be lying if I said it didn't take a few days to get used to some of the idiosyncrasies of the place, but once I accepted these I had a great time. Work is hostel work mixed with manual tasks so there was plenty of variety. the hostel is full of locals and the live music is spontaneous and authentic. The Guinness is superb! We received three decent meals a day - be prepared to eat late as the restaurant gets priority. It is remote so be prepared to hitch hike, bike or walk long distances to get around.

The owners Pat and Alice are friendly and lovely with the volunteers. I really enjoyed my time in the hostel and the people I met there. I will never forget the cozy nights with music in the Pub.

It was my third volunteering, and not my best for sure. Wrong period of the year (not many people in the hostel), and another helper always on my back telling what to do or not, basically acting like the manager, while Pat, though he is a really nice man, was not here til 6 pm. We had quite a lot to do with really few fun in exchange, and moved from one room to another all the time depending on guests. I can't really figure out what was really expected from me and what was my colleague's desire and orders. I guess it's a really nice place to stay with nicer colleagues in the summertime.

I had a great time @the hostel, beautiful well preserved victorian house, next to a mystical forest, there is a pub in the property w/ a cosy fireplace & live music. The island is beautiful x1000, breathtaking sceneries, however is a bit dificult go around it, you need a car or really good condition to ride a bike. Take a walk around the hostel, there are many lakes, sheeps and the ocean on walking distance. The owners are great people, Pat is nice, funny & easy going person and his wife Alice is strict but lovely. definately recommend it! Thank you very much for having me!
