Acheninver Hostel

If you think, the world has come to an end here at the parking lot you are mistaken. You descend 500 yards down the hill on a scrubby trail to find the hostel overlooking various bays and islands. The view from the terrace is breathtaking. The main house, mostly wooden, offers bedrooms (dormitories) divided only by curtains and sanitary facilities outside the building. Everything is in clean and tidy condition, the kitchen and common room offer cozyness and what you need to prepare your meals, free coffee included. The landlord is very friendly and helpfull and makes you feel comfortable. Of course, the entire premises is no luxury residence, but you get compensated by an outstanding location in the wilderness. The room rates reflect this specific location.

If you crave a bit of peace and enjoy wilderness then come here. The location was totally awesome! we had a pod (with our own loo and shower) which sat just behind the hostel and next to flowing stream which ran to the coast which was beautiful. Ruth is a great host and went out of her way to support and keep guests informed. Please note her message re access, the last part of the drive to the location was mostly single track with passing places, then you walk to the hotel from the carpark. Thank you for the wheelbarrows! we defiantly make use of those and then a narrow bridge to the building. The hostel had a kitchen with cookers and microwave and every piece of crockery and utensil needed! The pods also had crockery and a microwave. Buy food and drinks before you come....but do come!
