A real gem, good with the view of wild Atlantic. Very nice and welcoming hosts and very tasty food. Cherry on top, they offer vegan options too. Brownie is awesome. We will give more detailed review on our YouTube handle @DocsOnTrail

Lovely spot, stunning views with the right weather. We went to the cafe as well, which was lovely but pretty expensive. Very good vegan options and it's a great place for enjoying a book or a bit of quiet.

Stopped in by chance (for lunch) but it was worthwhile. Reasonably priced 'cafe style' food and drinks served by friendly staff. Be sure to enjoy a few minutes taking in all the wonderful scenery.

Beautiful setting overlooking the sea. A peaceful, gentle and safe place to reset. The volunteers who run the hostel were so lovely and helpful and the cafe onsite serves deliciously snacks and drinks to recharge your batteries. Thoroughly recommend.
