Nice little resort-style camp. Bungalows are spacious, only four beds to a dorm. Table tennis, swimming pool - both excellent and free! Shuttle bus to get you in to town is handy as it&'s about 30mins walk in. No cost breakfast (toast and spreads) and all day tea and coffee both handy. And television room is pretty decent, like a little cinema with a very good selection of films. Hot showers too.

This is an amazing hostel to stay at in Agnes Waters. It is a 5 mins bus ride out of town but they supply a shuttle service for travellers which runs each and every hour and was always on time when we needed to use it. The hostel is on large grounds and is more like a resort. The staff were great, rely chilled out as properly as the hostel was so calm which suited us perfectly. I would definitely recommend staying here when you come to Agnes Waters - there really is not much to do in town here anyway so you wont need to spending your nights hitting the town due to the fact there isnt one so the bar at hostel is best and when u buy a drink on tuesdays you get free sausage sizzle! We had a double room which looked more like a hotel room than the hostel rooms we have been used to - it was really clean and had ensuite and telly and they have tons of free dvds you can pick from to watch within your room. This hostel was noiseless and we had no problem with noise or other individuals staying there. The kitchen is small but it was never really busy when we wanted to use it.

Great location in lovely surroundings but in case you need to sleep dont stay here. Travellers yelled and sang really loudly until late along with the matress was incredibly thin and uncomfortable. To their credit, though, when we went and complained each problems were quickly rectified.

Great Kitchen and bbq area. Pretty location. Very good public areas. Would use it again if visiting 1770.
