Remote location with a beautiful beach and good hiking options right from the hostel
The beds could be more comfortable, and there are no bathrooms in the rooms. For some the bathrooms and showersmean a walk outside.
Cooking facilities are good and the staff are very helpful and friendly
An overnight stay at a lovely location.
Great facilities and a nice private space behind a partition curtain.
The nearby amenities are also excellent. A small shop for essentials and a fish and chip takeaway, both of which are very reasonably priced, to say they have monopoly of the immediate area.
One of the nicest hostels I have stayed in for location and nearby amenities.

Did the job
Parking was cash only but luckily had that on us but finding the parking was difficult due to construction. Then the small hike to the hostel from the temporary parking was a bit much with bags and over a fence. Service was nice, beds were not very comfortable
We had a great stay at the hostel. Our room was spacious and clean and we had our own toilet. The host was nice and accommodating. The hostel was really close to the beach and the view from the place was scenic. We enjoyed our stay and defo recommend it to others.👍
Een leuke hostel vlak bij het strand. Wij hadden een kamer met 2 1persoons bedden. Bedden waren goed beddengoed schoon. Medegasten in slaapzaaltje naast ons, smeten erg met de deuren. Er zat een zware dranger op de deur, zodat deze met klap dichtviel. Ik schrok daar steeds wakker van.
Dat je pas om 17.00uur kon inschrijven vond ik heel laat en een nadeel.

This location is AMAZING — some of the most gorgeous beach scenery you’ll ever see. The staff are lovely and welcoming, and the lounge and kitchen are really warm and inviting.
