Welcome to the Gatliff Trust Website

With the greatest regret the Trustees have decided to close our three hostels in the Outer Hebrides to help stop the spread of the Coronavirus- COVID 19.

Click here for further details.

The Gatliff Hebridean Hostels Trust is dedicated to running Berneray, Howmore and Rhenigidale hostels, in partnership with islanders, to a sound basic standard. Its goal is to provide hostellers the opportunity to stay a while to experience and maybe come to love the unique culture and natural environment of the islands. The Gatliff Hebridean Hostels Trust was founded in 1988 and is part of the SYHA family.

Gatliff Hebridean Hostels Trust

Our registered office is hosted at the Stornoway Offices of Third Sector Hebrides, 30 Francis Street, Stornoway, Western Isles, HS1 2ND. The Trust is a Registered Scottish Charity, number SC 013360

Newsletters

We publish two newsletters: The Hebridean Hostellers Newsletter twice a year, and the annual Newsletter of the Crofters' Hostels. Both are sent to those who join the Trust (membership £10 annually) and the second is also sent to all who visit our hostels in the year.

Advanced Bookings

We are not able to take advanced bookings at any of our hostels but you are unlikely to be turned away. For this reason we are also unable to predict availability.
