Hostelz.com Guest Reviews
5  Stunning I did not want to leave. When we arrived we were greeted with tea and muffins (freshly out of the oven) with the owners. They did free mussels for everybody every few nights. The rooms were immaculate and incredibly comfortable. Everywhere (windows and floors) were cleaned daily and there wasn't a bit of dust/dirt anywhere. Best kitchen I've seen. Kayaks, Fishing, Spa pool -- all for a small once off fee for unlimited use. I will be returning as often as I can!  , Ireland ()
5  This is without a doubt the best 'hostel' in the world. Words cannot describe the location, the quality, the cleanliness and the friendliness of Mike and Lynley who run and own the place. This place takes some getting to and if you don't have transport, it can be a bit of a grind but I guarantee it is worth every minute.  ()
