Ninebanks Youth Hostel (Orchard House) House has been welcoming guests since 1947.
That’s 75 years of stories, encounters, friendships and memories made in this special place.
We need your help to celebrate!
We want to build a Ninebanks Story Bank of memories, photos and stories with contributions from hostellers, guests, staff and volunteers through the years, all the people who have made Ninebanks the special place it is.
We know that at least one couple got engaged here, others met lifelong friends and partners, learned new skills, painted the view (or the walls), what did you do?
Let us know, What did you do here? Who did you come with or meet? What does the memory make you feel?
Send anything, long or short, to us at [email protected]
