The Experience

We’re a small hostel right by the sea - scenic, peaceful, and often sunny! We opened in 2016 and have built a strong “boutique hostel” reputation over the years. We’re looking for a responsible, genuine, and cheerful person to help out. Our guests are mostly hikers, amateur sailors, birdwatchers, school and uni groups, and plenty of fish-and-chips lovers. We’ve had consistently great reviews, and a big part of that is down to our awesome helper

This was an absolutely amazing experience. It was my first ever world packers experience and I couldn't have asked for a better opportunity. The hostel itself is beautiful and very well equipped. The work is very simple and straightforward. The town itself is very quant and beautiful perfect costal getaway. The real standout of this whole experience is definitely the people the other volunteers were amazing but Darius really made my stay amazing. He's very accommodating and welcoming, He's so kind and gracious and you can tell he loves having volunteers. I highly recommend staying here!!

It was my first volunteering experience in a hostel and that was wonderful ! I highly recommend it. Darius was very welcoming, friendly and took the time to show us the local area. The hostel is beautiful and so peaceful. It felt like home. This part of Scotland is so beautiful and there is so much to see around. I was only suppose to stay for 2 weeks but I quickly decided to extend my stay to enjoy it for even longer. I'm really grateful for this experience and will come back for sure !

I had a great stay at the hostel. It's a great place along the Fife Coastal Path. The host, Darius, was very friendly and took us all over to different villages/cities, castles, cliffs, etc. We were never bored! The accommodations were nice and clean and the hours were respected. It's a small place so it's easy to meet other travelers as well. I would definitely recommend this experience! Thank you Darius for a great stay!
