The Black Valley Hostel has been a family run business for over 75 years and has welcomed visitors from all over the world.

Open from April to September, The Black Valley Hostel offers dormitory accommodation in male, female and mixed dorm rooms.  A self-service light breakfast i.e. milk, bread, eggs, cereal, tea, coffee etc. is provided in the hostel kitchen (free of charge).

We also have 2 apartments which can be rented for a 2 night minimum stay or weekly stay. To book an apartment please click on the links below:
 The Timber House  &  The Little House

If you are walking the Kerry Way or looking to discover a remote and beautiful part of Ireland Black Valley Hostel will give you a warm welcome.

As there are no shops, restaurants or bars in the area and the nearest supermarket is 20km, we try to make it easier for our guests so they don’t have to carry extras while hiking or cycling to stay with us. Whatever you need from the supermarket for your dinner and lunch, we will do the shopping for you.

Please email the hostel 48 hrs prior to arrival if you wish to order groceries and we will have them for you when you check-in.
