The place is magical! I have never seen so many stars at once light pollution is minimal, and you can even hear stags from the nearby woods. A true heaven for hikers, simply something special. The people we met (I presume the owners) were very kind. Access to the kitchen is great. The room was basic, as expected, but the bed was very comfy to my liking. This place has massive potential with some investment, they could easily charge double for these rooms. I would definitely stay again.

Spent my weekend at the Ariundle Centre Bunkhouse in mid September. The place was busy enough, but not crowded. Met friendly people, enjoying a variety of activities. Made a new friend. Really appreciated the helfulness of the Ariundle Centre volunteers. After my first night, I discovered I had acquired a screw in my tyre. And I was assisted with good advice and the offer of a trolley jack, which made the tyre change quick and straightforward. That gesture allowed to save a lot of time! Also, I really appreciated the Ariundle people's hospitality and responsiveness. I will definitely stay here again in the future.

This is a very rundown property with limited amenities. The Yellow Bunkroom was tiny and the bathroom was very old. A neighboring dog barked throughout the night. The pictures were very obviously taken many years ago.

While I understand this is an accommodation, not a hotel, there were several concerning issues during my stay. The cleanliness was far below acceptable standards—the room wasn’t just dirty, it was filthy, with trash left behind from previous guests. Additionally, there was no lock on the room door because a previous guest had taken it, leaving us to use a knife to get back in. The toilet was dirty, and contrary to what is advertised, there is no Wi-Fi in the rooms; it’s only available in the dining area, which felt misleading. The only positive aspect was the availability of a laundry machine. However, it seems they are either severely understaffed or possibly have no staff on-site. Be sure to bring your own towel, as the one provided was extremely dirty. Overall, I would not recommend staying here—it’s simply not worth it.

Staff were excellent, and very hospitable. The food at their restaurant/cafe was simply superb. The room was decent, pretty much as advertised. A couple of minor issues about the facilities were brought to the owners' attention, but otherwise, the stay was a very pleasant experience. Thank you!

Ariundle is one of a kind! Kate and Laura were incredible hosts and went well beyond the call of duty. One of our party left their passport when we left and Laura was so supportive and helpful. The room was excellent, older but clean and the beds are comfy, and the food at the tea room, wow!!!!!

The lady who I spoke to was really lovely as we were running late but we were still able to access the room. This was a very appreciative from a very exhausting climb. Only disappointment is that we didn’t get to try the home cooking.

BAD - They double booked our room GOOD - They found us somewhere else to stay within two hours. BAD - We had to pay again the new place upfront then claim a refund from Expedia after the trip. This review is not an opinion, these are the bare facts

This is a great place located around a mile or so from Strontian, off the beaten track. I had the twin (bunk bed) room in the bunkhouse next to the kitchen. Room was clean, tidy with a separate toilet, shower, sink. The TV and Freesat did not work (no channels) but frankly that didn’t matter as the weekend was about getting away from the Rat Race. Bed was small (but I big), but comfortable. The sound of a babbling brook, the smell of wood smoke and stars in the dark sky at night was enough entertainment for me. Kate, Colin and the young man in the Ariundle Centre next door were all friendly and welcoming. The Ariundle Centre is a real gem! Highly recommended!

Hideaway in the woods

It was nice and warm,the mattresses could do with upgrading and tv,s that work but the staff were awesome,especially the girl who makes the awesome cakes there especially the scones and i told her so.it is in the middle of nowhere so is hard to find but once there its stunning. Plus we were very lucky to witness a pair of eagles fly over us.

Very Dirty and Messy

Very very dirty and messy. No clear direction as to which bunk, many bunks with old bedding on. Dirty nappies from long ago in the bin. Milk months old in the fridge and smelling. States wifi but none and no phone signal so made work I had planned to do very difficult, wouldn't have booked if I had known this. Needs a lot of TLC and cleaning.

We booked a room a few weeks prior to our trip, upon arrival we were assigned the self contained flat with its own kitchen! We were delighted. The area is gorgeous, very remote and peaceful, with lots of scenery within easy walking distance. All of the staff were lovely, very friendly, as were the other guests we came across. Great knowledge of the local area and walk / shop suggestions. It's a great base in this part of Scotland, we got up early to go and see the Glenfinnan Viaduct, the location let us get there early! Next time I travel to the Fort William area I'll definitely be staying here again!
