- "Great location with walking distance into town" - "Excellent youth hostel " - "It was great. So much better than expected. Beware only three people can cook at a time as there is only three cookers. That said the kitchen is a very good size and generally well equipped. Good sized dinning room. Overall the centre is well equipped, serviced and friendly helpfull staff. Add to boot about a ten minute walk to the town for supplies etc."

Guest Reviews:
- "Staff were friendly and helpful, location handy and beautiful, with red squirrels nearby and nesting house martins. My only suggestion would be that - as we should be reducing meat and dairy consumption for environmental reasons - vegetarian breakfast should be the norm." - "Perfect for the one night we needed to stay." - "Very conveniently located near multiple hiking routes, and right in front of the bus stop from/to Aviemore. Very clean and comfortable, and the receptionist was very helpful and friendly!"

A sunny and peaceful 6 bunk dorm with en-suite facilities.
The space
Our accommodation is adjacent to our bar/restaurant, The Old Bridge Inn. This is a popular eatery, open 12pm to 11pm daily, so there is the possibility of some noise from there depending on your room.
Please also note, a trainline runs the length of Aviemore, so like all centrally located properties here, we are subject to the noise of trains (though they are quite infrequent).
Our accommodation has 7 en-suite rooms over 3 floors. 2 of the rooms are shared bunk rooms (1 for men, 1 for women). Our self-catering kitchen is shared by all guests.
The front door and all bedrooms are accessed by keypad, codes changed regularly and communicated to you prior to arrival.
