"Thank you and all the team for another fantastic time at your wonderful hostel. We're all really energised from our adventures and all of us felt really warmly welcomed as before. We especially appreciated coming to our assistance when stuck at Seatoller on our last day - fortunately it all worked out in the end. We hope to be back at some point."

Blundell Family, May 2019
