I liked this place but it did remind me of a boarding school due to the large old building on its own grounds. I liked the atmosphere and the kitchen was well equipped and the staff were pleasant.. Showers and loos were just fine if basic however the dormitory was a little small and without lockers. I paid 18 euro... More

First of all I've read all of the former reviews and they are all correct in their way. This is an old "english" manor house which has been transformed into a hostel. There is no fanciness to it but it does have an old world charm about it. The strange thing was it felt as if I had joined a... More

Building looks great. Rooms just not up to the price. Asked for a room with 2 beds. Got 2 bunks that squeaked. Dirty. No ensuite for price similar to a B and B. Cost way over the top for quality. Several things didnt work. Toilets and shower old and grubby. Cleaning done by residents who dont pay and so dont... More

We stayed there as part of a Wilderness First Aid course, we were there for 2 nights. The first night we had a room to ourselves (my wife and ) which had 2 bunk beds, and the second night we shared with 2 people on the course. This was fine, all arranged before we booked. the toilets and showers were... More

When arriving at the hostel it was all WOW at first sight. A beautiful old house in a nice - well - kinda park, quite remote, quiet, just what I've been looking for. 18 Euro per night for a 12 bed dorm was the first time I thought about having made the wrong choice. But I hadn't seen the dorm... More

My husband and I had booked a private twin room, so I was very surprised to be in a room with two bunk beds (four beds total) and even more worried that our room would not be private when I overheard the girl at the desk saying they were full for the night. However, we were the only ones in... More

I had a really wonderful time at this hostel, the environment was beautiful but the best thing was the atmosphere, it was very friendly. felt more like a home or something, than a hostel. the staff was really nice and we had fun here. Just wish we had stayed longer, I really want to go back soon =) More

Beautiful grounds, and area, lovely house. HOWEVER, my friends and I (ages 23-25) were fully half the age of most of the other visitors. We drove in from Dublin on Friday night to a totally quiet, sound asleep hostel at 11 pm. It is just 'around the corner' from a pub, but the corner is a sizable distance down a... More
