Dolgoch Bunkhouse

Ik was blij met: Warden was really nice and helpful. Was on time at the property and explained, even shared bit of history of this lonely but beautiful house in middle of the valley. Kitchen had lot of things which we were free to use, overall great experience.

Van de manager: Ian, so pleased you loved our hostel as much as we, the volunteers who run it, do! Do visit again!

Ik was blij met: Dolgoch is an amazing place to let everything go, reconnect with nature and understand what we really need. Went there with my 14yr old son for a short getaway. We loved the place, the other guests and especially the lovely warden Mary and her 2 friends. We had the most wonderful conversations in the evening. They really looked after us and the other guests. What made it even more special is that all wardens are volunteers. We didn’t miss electricity or WiFi. The kitchen is well stocked with hobs, oven, drinking water, pots, pans, utensils, crockery and cutlery. The shower can get really hot after a warm, sunny day. The location is really peaceful and quiet during the night and the day. Everyone is relaxed and you start feeling like part of a new family after a couple of days.

Ik was niet zo blij met: There is nothing to dislike if you don’t have unrealistic expectations. It is what it says on the tin, basic, no Wi-Fi, no mobile phone reception. But everything you need for your stay. Something to be aware of: if there are many people staying, the shower may be cold - but this adds to the fun ;-). The beds are comfortable- we stayed in the 4-bed private room - as long as you are less than 6 foot. And beware of the southern bridle path if you are hiking. It is very boggy for 1.5 miles and treacherous- rather use the road on the other side of the valley.

Ik was blij met: Jim the warden welcomed us into the cosy main room with a roaring fire after we'd been out in the rain for hours! The bunkhouse is in a beautiful, very remote, location. The accommodation is wonderfully basic - no mains electricity, signal or wifi! But the rooms were clean and comfortable and the kitchen had everything we needed.

Ik was niet zo blij met: Nothing!

Ik was blij met: The Hostel is totally off grid. No Electricity, phone signal or internet. Lots of indoor relaxing space with a very effective wood fire. (We stayed when the temperatures were just above freezing). There is a rack to dry wet clothes above the wood burner. Bedrooms have no lights so bring a good torch. Outside has lots of seating and in summer would be a great space to sit out in. Bedrooms were clean, laundry was freshly laundered. I'm 190 cm and found my bunk was a little short, but bearable, and the duvet was large and warm.
