Nice stay at Crianlarich Youth Hostel
We had a nice stay at Crianlarich Youth Hostel. The bedroom was spacious, the common kitchen was well equipped with enough space for several groups to cook, and there was a nice and large common area.

Short one night stay
Be careful for checking in times as they shut up exception by 21.30, so don’t get delayed in traffic. Locations is great for exploring the mountains, and hostel was perfect for group of friends stopping for one night (or longer) for walking in the area. Bathroom and kitchen facilities are good and very convenient for use, and they have laundry equipment and drying rooms for dealing with wet clothing.

Paid £6 for breakfast, there was only bread/ toast to eat, coffee and tea could be made, however due to shortage of cups I had to wash my own. Very expensive slice of toast and cup of tea.
