I have used the cafe there, in 2012, and they were fantastic, really geared up to help Challengers. A number of us were passing through, having a rest and a warm, (there were snow squalls chasing me all day!) and I think Phil from Wigan was going to stop overnight. If I was going that way I would certainly drop in or stay there.

A great night was enjoyed by about 2 dozen challengers last year on the Wednesday. Hospitality was exceptional, with a bunk, dinner in the bar, a few beers, a couple of Dalwhinnies , and a shower ; all for the princely sum of £35. They are a lovely couple, and nothing is too much trouble.
