About Starling Backpackers
Starling Village Backpacking hostel is set in the country. In the heart of the Garden Route, hidden away in the forest right near the Robberg Peninsula, you will discover this unique and exclusive hostel is great for the nature lovers.
Be still…experience your inner self…look up to the stars, smell the bush and let the country life awaken your senses.
Starling is located between Plettenberg Bay (7km from the town) and Knysna (25km) with hiking trails all around us. Starling is the perfect year round accommodation, summer visitors can escape relative coolness of the backpackers lodge while winter guests can ward off any chilly nights around our indoor fire place and spare blankets.
Our hostel has beds for 80 guests and we provide clean, warm and comfortable budget farm style accommodation. All linen is supplied and the shared TV lounge and full kitchen facilities provide wonderful opportunities to meet other interesting people from all around South Africa and the world!
If you don't feel like cooking don't despair! For a minimal cost you can join us for a hearty evening of braaing (BBQ) and potjie (Traditional South African stew made on an open fire)! The spacious shared living area is the perfect place to relax after a day of exciting outdoor activities, unwind with a magazine, watch some television, play cards or challenge someone to a game of table tennis or foozball.
Our location and farm access is easy to navigate via road. Shuttle transportation to Plettenberg Bay is provided by us, which leaves Starling and travels to town regularly.
