Meals are taken in the L-shaped dining area, where walkers, climbers, paddlers and all outdoor enthusiasts get together to exchange stories of the day's and past activities.

Guests can prepare their own food, or take advantage of our excellent cooking! We are licensed, so you can purchase a drink or two with which to enjoy your meal.

The accommodation at Station Lodge sleeps 24 people in three dormitories and a twin-bedded room. The full size wooden bunk beds have plenty of headroom between the bottom and top bunk.

All bunks are provided with a full set of bedding. We would prefer people not to bring their own sleeping bags.

There are plenty of showers and toilets, also two drying rooms with commercial dehumidifiers.

The kitchen at the hostel is modern and fully equipped for 24 people. You can cook your own meals, but many guests prefer to sit with a drink - we are licensed - by the open fire whilst we prepare a freshly cooked meal for them.

We are a happy to cater for special diets but would appreciate advance notice if this is at all possible.

Breakfasts, with a choice of either light continental or full Scottish, are available from before the first glimmer of light in the eastern sky to suit the ice climbers, until the sun is well up for the more leisurely minded. A cooked breakfast costs just £4.75.

Packed lunches are also available, though we do ask that your order these the night before.
