Support Our Hostels




Staying in a hostel will be a different experience for a while but there will always be a warm welcome.

Reopening our hostels safely means that many of the communal facilities that make a stay in one of our hostels so great are not always available.  We hope you do choose to stay at one of our hostels.

What makes hostels so great


Those memorable evenings spent chatting with other guests in our hostel lounges, swapping stories about what you’ve been up to that day and where you’re heading next.

The ability to knock up a cordon-bleu meal or simply use the microwave in our kitchens.

Keeping your costs down by buying a bed in one of our dorm rooms.  That feeling of setting off in dry clothes the next morning after using the hostel drying rooms.

Your support is vital 


A recent survey of our hostels revealed that without further financial support a third of our hostels may not survive to Spring 2021.  It just shows you don’t know what you’ve got until it’s gone.

We’re lobbying the Scottish Government to raise awareness of the particular challenges our hostels are facing and to ask for consideration in the allocation of any future financial support.

Please support our campaign posts on our Facebook page and share them with your friends.

Support from others



We also had support from, BBC An La



 The Great Outdoors magazine



and Munro Moonwalker's Blog who’ve highlighted the plight for hostels.
