Papa Westray Hostel and Shop

The Papay Community Cooperative provides a licensed general merchants shop and visitor accommodation in Beltane House, a community-run complex created from a row of 19th century converted farm cottages. The Papa Westray Hostel is an ideal place to base your holiday. With lovely views out over the Holm of Papay and beyond to the isles of Eday and Sanday, it is centrally located within easy reach of beautiful beaches, archaeological and historic sites and many good walks around the isle. Owned and run by the community, our hostel is warm, friendly and comfortable with private rooms, two modern well equipped kitchens for self-catering, spacious dining room, a lounge with TV, DVD player, board games and books and a large garden overlooking the island and the sea.
