Volunteering at the hostel was such an amazing experience! The views are gorgeous from every angle, and there are plenty of hikes nearby. Bonus points because you can even see sheep right from the kitchen window 🐑. The work is easy and we are usually wrapped up before our shift ended. We get 2 days off in a row a week so it was nice to use that to explore more of Ireland. Mario, the manager, is super friendly and always happy to help or suggest little adventures if we have the free time. The other staff there was absolutely wonderful! It's got a really positive and peaceful vibe going on.

Staying at the hostel Letery is a truly unique experience, you won't regret going. Aside the beautiful surroundings, where you easily have the ocean, mountains, lakes and trials at you eye sight, the vibes and work are great for volunteers. It's perfect if you search for a peaceful intimate contact with nature, connect with travellers from all over and improve your language skills. The exchange really worth it. The place is at good hands with its new manager, Mario, who's a great host and make all the efforts for the volunteers to have the best possible experience. Many tnx to the whole team ✨

Volunteering at the hostel is one of the best decisions you'll ever make. The hours and tasks are simple and easy, the surroundings incredible, and the people you'll meet - I don't even have words for. I met so many people from around the world and made close new friends with the other volunteers. Most importantly, the manager, Kenny, is fantastic - fabulous to work and hang out with, and is a truly kind person who goes above and beyond to make sure you have a good stay. Cannot recommend this experience enough - I'm sure I'll be back soon!

I had a great experience at the hostel! The work was easy and the hours were respected, most of the time you'd be able to finish early. The surroundings are beautiful with multiple hikes nearby. Be aware the closest town is a 15 min drive away so you really are in the middle of nowhere. You meet great people, guests and other volunteers. Kenny our manager was very kind and always there to help out when needed. I really enjoyed my time there and I highly recommend this experience!!

My experience at the hostel was just amazing. I had the opportunity to meet many people coming from different parts of the world and l improved my English a lot. Kenny is an amazing manager, always ready to help you and making sure to provide a cozy and welcoming environment. The working schedule is respected and not difficult at all. You have to be ready to be surrounded by nature, also because reaching other places is kinda difficult so you will be spending most of your days at the hostel or nearby. I really recommend this experience💗

What a perfect experience! From the moment I got here I felt welcomed and cared about. The landscape is absolutely stunning. Kenny is a really fun and great manager. Hours are respected and often you finish early. Since you're kind of in the middle of no where, we spent most days just watching TV together as a group of volunteers or playing board games. It was such a great break to have in the middle of long term travel. The work is super easy and straightforward and the people are great. Could not recommend this enough as long as you are aware that there truly isn't much to do in the area.

This was my first volunteering experience, and it was absolutely amazing. If you love nature and a friendly, chill vibe, this is the place to be. Kenny is such a great manager, always making sure everyone feels at home and has the best time. The tasks are simple and way more easier when you do them as a team, and I got super lucky with awesome volunteers and meeting cool guests. I'll never be able to thank the hostel enough❤️

I loved my stay at the hostel! It was an enriching experience, which allowed me to meet lots of lovely people. Naseem and Kenny are two great managers, welcoming, caring and attentive. The work isn't hard and there's plenty of time to explore the beautiful surroundings of Connemara. I highly recommend this place ;)

My stay at the hostel was a really great experience! Naseem is a very kind host and the work is quick and easy. The nature surrounding the hostel is also stunning, though I would definitely recommend bringing some waterproof shoes. :) In general, I would definitely recommend this place for a calming and fun stay, spending time in nature and making some new friends (and seeing lots of sheep)!
