Never stayed at a place like this before so didn't know what to expect. Had a great time with room mates. Fun place.

Hartfield House Hostel offers pet-friendly accommodations in Applecross. Free private parking is available on site.

This is the third year in a row we’ve stayed here, and we’ll be back again. The location is stunning! We’re into our road cycling and there aren’t many better places to base your road cycling out of than here. I particularly like cycling along the coast to Shieldaig and then back over the notorious Bealach na Bah! The cooking facilities here are as good as anywhere I’ve been, plenty fridge space (and even a freezer), and there’s a dishwasher which makes it a lot easier to tidy up after breakfast and dinner. There are decent dining options nearby in the Walled Garden and the Applecross Inn, as well as an ice cream van. There are laundry facilities here too which come in very handy when you’re having an ‘active’ break. On our holiday my partner sprained her ankle and the staff were so supportive and helped out whilst I was away for the day, helping her move a chair outside to sit on. The staff do an amazing job at keeping the facilities super clean which I think is really important to guests.

    Highlander Hostel was perfect for our one night stop near Isle of Skye (right across bridge). The beds were comfy with a nice charging port right by the bed. But the best thing about Highlander were the owners (w/ the hotel next door). They were so kind!
