Budget travelers know there's no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: Save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a little more.

    The accommodation was fantastic, big, comfortable, great location and stocked with everything you need. We loved the view of the sheep on the mount and listening to the waves crash on the beach. Well done on fabulous accommodation. The communal areas were lacking but the apartment wasn't. The balcony is wonderful, even in cold weather as you have a real feeling of spaciousness. FYI, you get cheaper rates at the hot pools by staying at Oceanside Belle 😊
