ACCOMMODATION
The building is on 3 floors. Starting on the ground floor,we have:

LARGE
LOUNGE/ DINING AREA with log fire, solid maple floor and pine panelling. There
is an excellent sound system (bring some CD's with you!), and of course all
the windows have fabulous panoramic views of the mainland. There is a small
library and loads of games, jigsaws etc.. The centrally sited fireplace divides
the lounge area from the dining area, and the whole room has proved extremely
versatile for the various study groups, school and university parties, and other
special interest groups that have used the building. For the various study groups
that come here we have an overhead projector, flipcharts, whiteboads and video
player. Behind the lounge there is a small LABORATORY, with bench space for
8, containing a microscope and other field equipment. We are slowly building
up a display of Geological specimens found by visitors.
The
KITCHEN is superbly equipped with a large gas cooker, fridge, freezer, microwave,
toaster, blender etc. There is a serving hatch through to the dining area, and
a separate pantry with loads of shelving.
The ENTRANCE LOBBY has ample coat hanging and shoe space and in wet weather
it is kept toasting hot by the 'dump' heaters from our hydro-electric plant
- see the 'Electricity' page.
There is a LAUNDRY ROOM with a commercial sized washing machine and tumble
dryer (both coin operated), a shower and 2 toilets (one equipped for disabled
people). We also have a payphone.
Moving
up to the first floor, there are four BEDROOMS of various sizes - one twin bedded
room, one triple (1 bunk, 1 single), one 5 bedded (2 bunks, 1 single), and one
with 8 beds in 4 bunks. Each has its one wash basin, and down the rear corridor
are 2 showers and 2 toilets.
The
top floor has two BEDROOMS, each with 3 single beds. There is another shower
and toilet on this floor.
There is full central heating in the building, and plenty of hot water.
That completes our short tour of the building.
