This place is great! This is one place I plan on coming back to. The building and the things inside are a bit older than preferred, but it works. This place always seems to have a good crew. Special shoutout to Jake the manager, and Lin who'll most likely be there next year. Absolute Legends! The hostel is in a great place for travelling to the islands, going to the woods, or just having a dram of whiskey at the distillery! All in all, the work was easy, well managed, and very reasonable. I feel privileged to have spent time here.

In the month I was here, I had the best time and honestly felt like I had found a family here! the hostel is a small enough town to have local charm but big enough that there's things to do ( like go to Markie Dans ;)). The schedule was organised in advance so we could plan to see all the beautiful things in the area and was very flexible. The times of the shifts were respected and the work was clear; very easy for volunteers to settle in. The work environment was great and you get to know the other volunteers so well from staying in the staff dorm.

I had a great experience in the hostel Worldpackers, Jake and the staff were amazing and I had fun there. The tasks were easy to do, also I like that you can choose your schedule. The town is really beautiful, you can walk around or go to the islands in your free time :)

I had the absolute best time at the hostel, the hostel is very fun, social and overall a great place to spent your time. The work is very easy and afterwards and on your days of you have more then enough time to enjoy the beautiful the hostel and the islands close by. I worked with many amazing people here and there was always a good vibe within the staff. It's a great hostel experience you want to be social, play a few games of pool, see a lot of amazing nature and if you enjoy cute and small coastal towns. I will forever cherish my time here❤️

Volunteering at the hostel was a wonderful experience! Jake and the rest of the staff were really amazing, it was a very welcoming and social environment! the hostel is such a lovely town with lots of great hiking, walking trails, ferry trips, and activities nearby. There are lots of nice cafes and shops in town to explore, as well as the beautiful nature around. The work here was also clearly communicated and allowed for lots of free time to explore after our shifts. I'm really grateful for my time here and the wonderful people I met- I would absolutely recommend this volunteering experience!

The hostel is a really nice coastal town with lots of access to the nearby islands so there's always something to do or somewhere to go on your afternoons/day off. The hostel and everyone was very welcoming and social, and the tasks were really clear for each shift which I really appreciated. Would definitely go back :)

The hostel was a great experience from the arrival. The team collaborated to share the workload and accomplish daily tasks. Plenty to see nearby from castles 🏰 to live music and highland dance nearby.

Had a great time here and met some awesome people. Jake (the manager) was also great. He was respectful and appreciative of our work and time which I think is very important. Hostel was cosy. Only issue was terrible wifi so keep that in mind if you need it for work. Overall had the best time and would definitely recommend staying here!

The hostel was my first ever volunteering experience and I couldn't have asked for a better one!! The team and Jake as the manager made me feel home from the very beginning on! The whole working environment is very relaxed. You can do double shifts, which allows you to have several days off per week. Thats something I really appreciated, because it gave me the opportunity to explore the hostel and the surrounding area. I would recommend this hostel to everyone who likes to spend time in nature while also immersing in the local culture. I loved it so much!!!

There is usually not much going on, so if that and the beautiful nature (beach, islands, mountains, etc) is your thing, you'll love the hostel! I didn't really know what to expect from the hostel before going there, but after two weeks I was sad to leave this adorable little town. The work was straight forward and I liked that we got to make our own work schedule and decide on our days off. Jake and the other volunteers were super welcoming and made sure to answer all my questions :) Thanks Jake for the good time, I felt like I could learn a lot and always enjoyed the tunes on the hostel jukebox, tah!
