Svenska :
I de norrländska skogarna, på andra sidan sjön, och just vid backarna i Tärnaby finner ni oss - Tärnaby Backpackers (hostel) & Bed & Breakfast. En mysig verksamhet som ständigt växer och utvecklas. Vi är ett personligt par som driver det hela, och vi har våra rötter här, i Örnsköldsvik, England och så långt borta som Australien.

Välj mellan enkelrum, sovsal eller dubbelrum. Frukost eller självbetjäntning. Vi har fullt utrustade kök och mysiga vardagsrum med filmer och DVD. Böcker finns även tillgängliga att köpa eller låna i husen.
Privata lägenheter utrustade med bastu om man vill söka sig mer mot foten av laxfjället. Och för oss som befinner oss här nere vid vattnet finns självklart en egen vedeldad bastu som värms upp vid förfrågan.

Det nyöppnade bokcaféet är beläget precis vid entrén. Med böcker såsom pocketböcker, nyheter och bästsäljare, eller om man föredrar gamla, med omsorg, slitna klassiker.
så varför inte ta en latte innan backen, skoterturen, kanotpaddlingen eller efter bastun? Vi har öppet året runt och anpassar också våra aktiviteter därefter. Snöskotrar och liftkort med rabatt under vintrarna. Kanoter, båtar och cyklar finns till uthyrning under somrarna.
