A quarter-mile walk off the road a couple of miles southeast of Achiltibuie, this off-the-beaten-track hostel has a remote, serene location that's one of the country's best. It's a cosy spot, and has a female dorm with single beds, a male dorm with bunks and three en suite huts sleeping two to three. There's a kitchen, and some limited supplies are available.
