shower/toilet air ventilation stayed on for 2h when it should turn off after max 5 min. so lost 2 hours of sleep until it finally turned of at midnight by itself. reception person wasn’t much of use. not really helping or offering solution, and i had to suggest possible solutions to the problem to try fix problem.

everything very clean and in good condition. fabulous shower in ensuite. good storage. great facilities for each bunk
kitchen very small for the number of people in hostel. kettle smallest I have ever seen which was very odd. Would have been great to have a comfy "common room" separate or adjacent to kitchen for relaxing in as no space to relax in dorms

The staff were really very kind and good humoured. It makes such a difference to your enjoyment of a place. They were always available to help with anything. The breakfasts were amazing. Very generous portions. The whole place is excellent value (we stayed in the hostel) and having access to the bar / restaurant made the week's stay a great mix of self catering and having reasonably priced dinners in the restaurant. The kids menu is excellent.
The hostel could benefit with some external cladding to help it blend in with the natural environment, but I appreciate that's a costly job. Overall it was a fantastic place for a week's holiday.
Perhaps a little more vegetarian food on the bar menu and access to a microwave in the hostel kitchen.

The mattress was hard in bump bed it didn’t affect the children sleeping but def I didn’t sleep so well . When I go again I would bring a sleeping bag and maybe sleep on top of quilt that is supplied .

Beautiful location. Room clean

The activities are fantastic. A few not running due to current restrictions but we were not left disappointed at all.... We had a hostel room all to ourselves so we couldn't fault that space. Staff are friendly and helpful. Breakfast was brilliant and plenty of choice.
These are more of note to everyone as they didn't take from our overall experience. A chair in the hostel room woud be good. Some outdoor games for the kids (indoor is closed at present) and possibly a playground for smallies would also help families. There is food available in the restaurant and a small gift shop/cafe shop but you know when you've been as they sure do know how to charge. In saying that they are not massively overpriced but lets be honest with a family of 5 for dinner and lunch each day it adds up way too fast. Nearest fastfood is 30 min away and same for a decent shop if you wanted to buy food for cooking at the hostel kitchen. We didn't know you needed to book breakfast times or dinner times so that left us with harsh times to chose from as that's all that was left. Personally i think you should only be allowed book these on the day of check in to give everyone a chance to chose regular times. Wifi available but shocking poor quality so the teenagers will get a technology detox too...haha... I've been on stronger dial-up connections.
