Berneray Youth Hostel
Berneray Youth Hostel
The hostel has 20 beds in total; bookings are not taken. Prices for 2008 are £9 per night for people aged 18 and over, or £6 per night for under 18s. The fee is payable in the hostel by either cash or cheque. There is no "lights out" or curfew policy, but please respect other sleeping visitors. The hostel has a very well equipped kitchen, heating, a shower, toilet and a coal-burning stove.
For practical reasons, and the well being of the children themselves, it is not possible to accommodate children under 5 years of age. No special facilities are available. Also, no dogs. People can also camp near to the hostel and use its facilities, for £5. For people using the hostel facilities in the day only e.g. to make a cup of tea, the charge is £1. Berneray is one of four youth hostels operated by the Gatliff Hebridean Hostels Trust.
