Callander Hostel

Review of main hostel, not the pods which looked excellent. Good location, friendly staff on arrival and great garden space for relaxing...however I wouldn't stay in the main hostel again...clean room and shower facilities but the room window opened only a couple of cms but when shut blocked out none of the noise from the cars passing directly in front of the building until well after midnight. The kitchen was well-equipped and the common space large and clean. The main negative was the comfort of the bed. I'm not particularly heavy at 75kg but when lying on my side I could feel each mattress spring to the point where I considered getting my camping mattress and lying on the floor. For context the previous night I'd wild-camped and slept much better. The hostel is run by a social enterprise which I'd love to continue to support but not until they improve the beds!

Awesome place,really nice chap at check in,the pod was lovely with every amenities you could want,lovely and clean and cosy.

Comfortable, provided everything we needed, peaceful setting, have no complaints

Simple and convenient.

The hostel is nestled into the charming village of Callander with a spectacular view of Ben Ledi. The hostel is immaculate and cozy. There is a full kitchen with a lot of care and intention put into recycling and composting. There is an ample and comfortable dining area with foosball table, books and some games. Our room was clean and comfortable with a small table, refrigerator and two bathrooms. We really enjoyed our stay in Callander.

We stayed in the pods that are on the property and they were perfect for us! Very comfortable and well appointed, with everything you might need. I definitely would stay there again. Very short drive to Doune Castle and Dean Distillery.

What a fantastic stay I had recently in one of your superb pods! Wonderfully decked out with everything that's needed! With a stunning view of Ben Ledi across the meadows! I will definitely be returning!"

Friendy staff.

Really nice building with shared kitchen and garden at walking distance from the center. Room was basic but clean and quiet. Private parking on the backyard and nice staff.
