Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    The cottage we were given looked tiny from the outside but was spacious and had plenty of room for four adults with two enormous bed and 1 separate bedroom. The bathroom was amazing. Loved the vintage touches with the old style writing desk table and vintage bath in the bathroom. Great to have laundry close at hand and safe bike storage
