The Old Countryhouse

Overall Rating

139 out of 143 HostelBookers customers said that they would recommend 'The Old Countryhouse'

A city base for those who enjoy quality and comfortable surroundings while traveling. Because we are a small hostel our reception is only open from 8am to 8pm and Check-In is only possible during those hours.

Imagine a hostel within 15 - 20 minutes walking distance (5mins by bus) to the city centre - a hostel where you can escape the hustle and bustle from the moment you enter the property through the garden gate...

Take a walk along the garden path to a charming villa with polished wooden floors and hand-made native timber furniture. Both our villas have been completely restored and are equipped to please the traveler’s needs.

We only accept bookings for a maximum of seven days. Bookings for a longer period of time will be canceled.

RECEPTION HOURS & CHECK-IN TIMES: 8am to 8pm
