Our charming and endearing backpackers operates inside a Heritage-class building that was originally built in 1888. It's now fully refurbished and caters to the modern traveller.

Our on-site pub is a local English-style watering hole that provides a great chance to meet locals. It closes early so as not to disturb those who cherish their sleep.

For the cyclists we have a secure, lockable garage in which to store your bikes. We're conveniently located at the base of the Dun Mountain Bike Trail.

All of our rooms are ensuite and throughout the stay we the owners (Mike and Nani) will be here (we live next door) to help out in any way we can.

Look forward to seeing you soon!
Prices are per person per night.
