'Am Bothan' is a bunkhouse with a difference, offering its own very special brand of hospitality. Nobody who stays here will fail to be enchanted by its splendid location and views over The Sound of Harris, nor will they easily forget the imaginative and resourceful style in which this new asset for Harris has been created. Situated within km of the Leverburgh ferry 'Am Bothan' hostel welcomes people from all walks of life: making it an ideal stopover, or more longterm base, for anyone wishing to explore the charms of Harris or of The Western Isles.
Big comfortable ones of course! We pride ourselves on the quality of our rooms and facilities and trust you will agree that they are way beyond what you normally expect on the backpacker…
Why not stay in a real highland castle? Carbisdale Castle Youth Hostel was built for the Dowager Duchess of Sutherland.
Please note a compass and a map are required for navigating to the hostel. Glen Affric offers a unique rustic experience.
