Reviews of The Smugglers Hostel
My family and I stayed at the Smugglers Hostel last summer. I must say that it was the highlight of our trip and we were all over Scotland and parts of England. It’s nestled in beautiful wee Tomintoul where there’s fabulous peripheral landscape, friendly people, and even live music at night! A displaced Scot from 200 years ago certainly feels like she came home. Kenny, the hostel manager was fantastic and even showed us on a big map where are people likely came from a couple hundred years prior. Our room housed all 6 of us, was completely secure, and was impeccably clean as were the shower rooms. Access was easy with a code. The dining area was big and bright and cheery. We even took in the Highland games while we were there and I’ve never felt so Scottish in my life. I very much appreciate all that was done to make our stay amazing and it’s the first place will all be hitting on our next trip to the motherland. Thank you Kenny and Tomintoul!
We wanted to camp in Tomintoul and were surprised to find a fantastic little walled camp site right next to the Smugglers hostel! The warden, Kenny made us most welcome and for a reasonable fee we also had access to the hostel kitchen, showers etc. All immaculately clean and well kept! One of our best camping experiences yet! Kids enjoyed Bike Glenlivet trails and fishing in the local river (permits available at village Post Office/village store). We will be back soon! Thanks Paula, Pauline and the boys!

Last year at this time we arrived at Kenny's hostel after long strenuous hikes. We had a nice, cozy and relaxing stay and got a lot of good tips from Kenny for the next hike. He was also able to give us qualified information and recommendations about all the distilleries in his area.
The hostel is very clean, well-kept and very cozy. You have a lot of space to cook and sit together. Kenny is a very attentive and warm host!
