Space for the whole family at Easter.

February 14th 2023

Whether its a family gathering or a large walking group Kyle of Tongue Hostel can accommodate. The moving scenes of the Scottish shoreline contrasting with the rugged mountain Ben Hope serve a gorgeous backdrop for your Easter away.

A wonderful stone lodge, located far from pressures of the everyday. The atmosphere is second to none with truly astounding scenery right from the doorstep. Just stepping outside rewards a panoramic view of the Scottish countryside. Just to the South of the Hostel lies the Stoic ruins of Castle Bharraich, thought to be over 1000 years old. There’s no shortage of walks around Kyle of Tongue and even a pub within walking distance. However it’s the Hostel that really shines, sleeping up to 36 people inside and ample room for camping/caravaning its perfect for large get-togethers. Self catering facilities make cooking feasts a doddle and there’s plenty of room to enjoy it. Sound like your kind of Easter?
