Ben Lettery Hostel

Ben Lettery is a small, friendly independent hostel in the heart of Connemara We’re all about great value, a great vibe & great times. We love to get out hiking and explore the areas aound us. Enjoy pizza nights with some tradional irish music by the fire.

We pride ourselves on our orginal Irish backpacker family experiance. We like to work with like minded people. We love to know what is going on around us and the events/ activities to attend to. We are an outdoors gang and love to hike, cycle, swim and the odd day of kayaking. We work very hard to create this vibe for our guests, so that both the guests and oursevles enjoy it. :)

Fue mi primer voluntariado en Ben Lettery y sin pensarlo volvería. Fergal y Donna son personas muy amables, preocupadaa y pacientes con las barreras del idioma. El trabajo no es pesado y siempre trabajamos en equipo. Además el lugar es muy bello, tiene una atmósfera natural increíble y puedes desconectarte del mundo si lo deseas. Gracias a la confianza entregada por el equipo pude mejorar mi inglés y compartir experiencias con el equipo y con viajeros del hostel. Sin duda me sentí en casa.

fue mi primer primera experiencia en worldpacker y realmente estuvo increíble. El trabajo no era pesado, tareas de recepción y limpieza dentro del hostal. Fergal y Dona son personas realmente amorosas y dispuestas ayudar. Realmente me hicieron sentir parte de una gran familia, volvería aplicar sin dudar a este lugar maravilloso ❤

If your looking for a nice experience this is a really good one.
The enviroment of the hostel is really cool and the manager - Fergal, he is a really nice guy and he understands the concept of volunteer work perfectly. He always helps volunteers with schedules and makes sure their exchange is fun. Hours worked are exactly as agreed.
This experience provides an immense contact with nature, culture and guests.
Thank you Ben Lettery Hostel!!

Fergal was a fantastic host. He was kind and welcoming and full of stories and history. He was flexible with my needs and helped me settle in. The work was very reasonable and left plenty of time to visit neighboring mountains and lakes and to relax by the wood stove.

This experience at the Ben Lettery Hostel has completely changed me. I have met lot of people I would carry in my heart forever.

I especially say thanks to Fergal for being such a great manager. He is attentive and patient and He taught us how a hostel is run from housekeeping tasks to reception activities. He drove us frequently to Clifden for groceries shopping and sometimes he drove us to sightseeing around the beautiful area of Connemara.

Dialy tasks are simple and easy to do and all of them could be done in the working hours.
