Keiraleagh House- Wollongong Backpackers

The hostel is situated very close to some of Australia's best surfing beaches. There are many beaches within a few minutes walk, as well as a fishing harbour and 2 lighthouses . There is a bike and walking track that runs for many kilometres along the beach front, for your outdoor entertainment. We are also very close to many bush walking tracks.
The hostel is situated right in the middle of town where there is a great café and bar culture , as well as many night spots. We have a very bohemian, bali-inspired hostel. The hostel is in a lovely heritage house which is eco friendly. We are solar powered and have a lovely back garden to chillout in.

The hostel has been mostly family run, but we are now needing other staff. I have owned the hostel for 25 years and live on the premises . Volunteers will be welcomed into our extended family

This hostel feels like home after a few days. The people are great and Kerrie is an angel. The work is super easy and only lasts a couple hours a day! If you want a chill couple of weeks with some really cool people this is the place to go.

this was my first Worldpackers volunteering experience, and I couldn't be happier with the choice. the hostel is really well located, the work is easy and explained every day and the facilities are great. Kerrie and Nathan are incredibly helpful and involved, and overall amazing people to have around. they really work to encourage socialising, making the hostel feel like a really homey little community. in short, this was a great experience that i would definitely recommend to everyone:)

Keirleagh house is a very loose hostel. A lot of international travelers hanging out and a great atmosphere to do whatever you like. Close to the beach and grocery stores. The work is basic housekeeping and sanding furniture. All together I love(d) my time here and will definitely be back! Thanks Kerrie for the good time(s)
