The accommodation is now bright, comfortable and cosy with full gas central heating throughout. The relaxing guest lounge has a wood burning stove, comfortable couches and a television, an ideal place to put your feet after a long day walking/cycling/sightseeing. The fully modernised kitchen has a gas hob and electric oven, as well as a feature wood burning range cooker. There is a twin bedroom, a family bedroom ? sleeping up to 6 people, and two bunk rooms - one sleeping up to 8 and the other sleeping up to 12 people. The hostel also has a drying room, laundry and secure bike shed.

Continental breakfast is provided in the hostel along with fresh bed linen, duvets and pillows, all at no extra charge. The award-winning Scottish Lead Mining Museum is also only minutes from the hostel where you can experience a real lead mine and then enjoy the scones in the tearoom!
