Hartfield House Hostel offers pet-friendly accommodation in Applecross. Free private parking is available on site. There are extensive grounds and covered space for bikes, ideal for cyclists and walkers. The staff were super helpful on arrival and showed us where to eat, wash-up, relax, bathrooms and the room. Despite other reviews, we found it really clean and very well organised. It's a nice touch that there are spaces to leave your food labelled (pens and stickers provided) and then 'free' food for those who don't need it for their onward journeys. We were not on a hike or bike tour, but there were washing and drying facilities available and secure bike storage. I've not stayed in many hostels, but this was a step up from what I expected. Heard no evidence of other guests after 10pm or before 7am despite what seemed nearly a full house using the breakfast room in the morning. Either good soundproofing or a well-behaved set of guests. The only overnight noise was from the stags and highland cattle.
