Mousetrap Backpackers

Photo Gallery

The Mousetrap Backpackers is a three-level character house with wooden polished floors and native timbers. Its famous balcony, with sweeping views of the bay, opens into two large sunny lounges with open fires, perfect for those cold winter nights. Having two lounges allows guests to watch TV, read, or relax with friends. Being a small friendly hostel, it is a great place to meet fellow travellers.
